Your IrvineREALTOR®.

Gaganjyot Arora is an Irvine REALTOR® with First Team Real Estate and The Moein Group. From Northwood and Turtle Rock to Portola Springs and Great Park, I help buyers and sellers move through one of OC's most competitive markets with clarity, sharp negotiation, and a calm process.

Why I serve Irvine

Irvine isn't one market — it's twenty. Each village has its own pricing, its own school assignment, its own HOA rhythm, and its own buyer pool. I work this market every week and price homes the way an Irvine appraiser does: village by village, builder by builder, plan by plan.

As part of The Moein Group at First Team, I bring deeper inventory access, proactive off-market sourcing, and a marketing engine that punches well above what most solo agents can offer — while you still get one dedicated point of contact: me.

Local expertise that actually moves the needle

  • Village-level pricing across Woodbridge, Northwood, Turtle Rock, Quail Hill, Portola Springs, Great Park, Eastwood, and more
  • Honest read on Mello-Roos, HOA, and true monthly cost
  • Insight on IUSD elementary boundaries and how they move price
  • Active relationships with Irvine-area buyers, sellers, and listing agents
  • Coordinated lender, inspector, and contractor introductions

Buying in Irvine

Irvine buyers are usually weighing three things: schools, commute, and long-term hold value. I help you cut past the marketing photos and get honest answers on plan layouts, builder quality, special tax assessments, and which villages tend to outperform on resale.

  • Personalized MLS search with daily new-listing alerts
  • Pre-MLS and off-market access via The Moein Group
  • Tour walk-throughs with real talk on plan, finishes, and resale
  • Strategic offer structure for competitive Irvine listings
  • Closing coordination with zero surprises

Selling in Irvine

Irvine listings live or die in the first 10 days. Pricing has to be village- and plan-specific, presentation has to match buyer expectations for that price band, and marketing has to reach both local and out-of-area buyers — including international demand. I run the full playbook.

  • Custom CMA at the village + plan level — not a generic Zestimate
  • Pre-listing prep, staging guidance, and contractor coordination
  • Professional photography, video, and digital marketing
  • MLS exposure plus our private buyer and agent network
  • Disciplined negotiation focused on net proceeds
