FAQs

Common Questions, Answered

Everything you need to know

How much does it cost to work with Aragone & Associates?+
We work on a standard real estate commission (typically 2.5 to 3% listing side). For probate, divorce, and trust situations, commission may be negotiated based on complexity. There are no upfront fees. We only get paid when the deal closes.

Three key differentiators: Specialization in high-value sales, complex situations (probate, divorce, trusts), and luxury real estate. Five professional designations plus a law school background. Results: 900+ transactions and $900M+ sold with consistently top Zillow reviews.
What is happening in the Orange County real estate market right now?+
The market is moderately balanced, with prices holding steady in luxury segments and increasing buyer activity. Neighborhoods like Newport Beach and Laguna Beach are seeing 60 to 90 days on market, while more affordable areas move faster.
What is probate real estate and how does it work in Orange County?+
Probate real estate involves selling property that is part of a deceased person's estate. In Orange County, California, the process typically involves filing with the Orange County Superior Court, getting the property appraised, listing it for sale, and potentially going through court confirmation depending on the type of administration. A CPRES-certified specialist like Paula Aragone can guide you through each step.
Can Aragone & Associates help with real estate during a divorce in Orange County?+
Yes. We specialize in divorce real estate across Orange County, acting as a neutral party to help both spouses achieve the best possible outcome on their property sale or division. With a law school background and experience in high-conflict situations, we bring the legal precision that divorce real estate requires.
How long does it take to sell a probate property in California?+
The timeline varies greatly depending on court requirements. Under the Independent Administration of Estates Act (IAEA) with full authority, it can be as fast as a traditional sale (30-60 days). If limited authority or full court confirmation is required, the process typically takes 3 to 6 months or longer.
