The Selling Sunset spin-off is back with drama!
Since Selling Sunset first hit our screens back in March 2019, fans of reality TV have been hooked on the lifestyles of high-flying real estate agents working at the prestigious The Oppenheim Group.
With all six series now on Netflix, fans were over the moon to learn the show would be getting another spin-off show, called Selling the OC.
After Selling the OC landed with eight brand new episodes in August 2022, Netflix later confirmed it had renewed for two more series, and now series three is just around the corner!
When does Selling the OC start?
It's now been confirmed the third series will begin on Friday 3rd May 2024.
The news was announced with a brand new dramatic trailer, with the caption: 'The Oppenheim Group’s OC agents are back for our fiery 3rd season with big homes and even bigger drama. In an office where betrayal and rumours spread like wildfire, you can’t put a price on loyalty – or reputation.' (sic)

Is there going to be more seasons of Selling the OC?
In January 2023, Netflix confirmed Selling the OC had been renewed for two more series!
The Oppenheim Group's Jason Oppenheim announced the news on social media, writing on Instagram: 'Netflix just announced that Selling the OC will be back for two more seasons! Get ready for Selling the OC seasons 2 and 3 and Selling Sunset seasons 6 and 7. They like to keep me busy… here we go!'. (sic)
It's not yet been confirmed if there will be anymore series after the third.
What is Selling the OC?
The Oppenheim Group expanded to Orange County in 2022, and now we are going to see all of the drama from the new office in Corona Del Mar as Selling the OC has been announced by Netflix.
Star of the show Jason Oppenheim, who split from dating co-star Chrishell Stause in 2021, wrote on Instagram at the time, saying: 'I am so excited for our new show, “Selling the OC,” about my Newport Beach office and its amazing agents! Thank you @netflix @lionsgatetv @adamdivello @skylerwakil for believing in me and what we have all created together with Selling Sunset.' (sic)
Netflix describe the show as: 'Hot new listing. A fresh set of realtors square off, competing to establish themselves at The Oppenheim Group’s second office on the Orange County coast. Will the pressure prove too much for these agents to handle? Selling The OC hails from the creator and executive producer of Selling Sunset.'
Who is on Selling the OC?
The show features Jason Oppenheim himself, as well as Alexandra Hall, Austin Victoria and Brandi Marshall, who all appeared during the series four finale of Selling Sunset.
Agents Alexandra Jarvis, Alexandra Rose, Gio Helou, Kayla Cardona, Lauren Brito, Polly Brindle, Sean Palmieri, and Tyler Stanaland also appear on Selling The OC.
New agent Alex Harper, who joined at the end of series two, will also feature heavily in the third series.
Selling Sunset stars such as Mary Fitzgerald, Christine Quinn, Chrishell Stause, Davina Potratz, Maya Vander and newly married Heather El Moussa DON'T appear on the spin-off.
This is despite rumours that Heather had quit the Los Angeles office in order to help Jason out in Orange Country.
How can I watch Selling the OC?
Just like Selling Sunset, spin-off show Selling the OC is available on streaming platform Netflix.
How many episodes of Selling the OC is there?
Series one and two of Selling the OC has eight episodes, with series three expected to follow the same format.
Check out all of these Selling Sunset facts below:
1. The Oppenheim Group actually has 17 agents
Although Mary, Chrishell, Davina, Maya, Heather, Emma, Nicole, Bre, Amanza and Chelsea all feature as real estate agents on the show, there's actually four other agents at the business - these are Peter Cornell, Alice Kwan, Omar Abaza, Alexander Huerta, Romi Jordan Mouillon, Kane Lim, and Minoo Malek.
2. Romain used to be a pastry chef
French model Romain Bonnett, who married Mary Fitzgerald on season 2 of Selling Sunset, actually used to work as a pastry chef!
Back in 2019, he wrote on Instagram: 'Since so many asked me if it was true that I was a pastry chef, here is some of the pasty I used to make. YES IT WAS TRUE !!! 😜😬'. (sic)
3. Selling Sunset is created by the same man who created The Hills
Yes, that's right! The Hills producer Adam DiVello is the creator of Selling Sunset - that guy certainly knows how to make great TV!
4. Jason once had Orlando Bloom's house on his books
The Oppenheim Group's President Jason Oppenheim has worked with some major stars over the years! Not only has he sold houses for the likes of Alex Rodriguez and Lea Black, he was also selling Orlando Bloom's house!
He told us in 2019: "My favourite guy that I worked with is Orlando Bloom. But that's why I'm selling his house right now because he's going to be a dad. So families and marriages are good for real estate."
5. Mary has a son called Austin Babbitt
Selling Sunset fans met Mary Fitzgerald's son during season 2 of the show in 2020, when Austin walked his mum down the aisle for her wedding to Romain.
6. Chrishell was once engaged to Matthew Morrison
Before marrying (and then divorcing) American actor Justin Hartley, Chrishell Stause was once engaged to Glee star Matthew Morrison.
The couple first met way back in 2006, with a proposal coming just months later. However, things didn't work out and the pair called time on their romance in December 2007.
7. Heather is now married with a baby
After announcing her new romance with Tarek El Moussa during season 2 of Selling Sunset, just weeks before season 3 hit Netflix, Heather Young announced Tarek had popped the question to her!
In October 2021, the pair tied the knot at a luxury ceremony surrounded by their friends and family, including Heather's Selling Sunset co-stars, with footage being shown in series 5.
Heather and Tarek then welcomed a baby boy called Tristan in January 2023.
8. Christine didn't meet her husband by selling him a house
Although season 2 of Selling Sunset seemed to document that Christine Quinn met her husband Christian Richard whilst selling him a house, it turns out the pair actually met through mutual friends.
During an interview on This Morning with Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, she said: "Well actually, that was amped up a little, I'm not going to lie. I actually met him through a girlfriend of mine, but Mary spun this story that he was a client.
"We were dating for three months and then we bought a house together, but television is fun."
9. Chrishell wasn't part of The Oppenheim Group before Selling Sunset
She's a valued member of the team now, but Chrishell Stause actually only joined the real estate agency when she was signed to appear on the show.
Selling Sunset creator Adam DiVello said at the time: "She really is a realtor and has a real estate license selling homes when we met her.
"I think we were lucky to get her, I think she adds something that is very unique to Los Angeles, and we're doing a show about realtors in Los Angeles. The fact that we have one who's an actress and happens to be married to an actor who's on a very successful TV series is a plus."
10. Mary actually sold a house on her wedding day
As viewers witnessed in season 2, Mary Fitzgerald doesn't stop work for anything... Even her own wedding!
Whilst getting her hair and make-up applied on her big day, Mary took time out to show round a buyer of the stunning house she was using for her venue.
She later told People magazine: "I end up selling my wedding venue on my wedding day, which was amazing. I paused the wedding and sold it in the middle of getting ready.
"Everyone thought I was out of my mind, but I told the seller when he allowed me to book it for the wedding venue that I won't let the wedding planning or doing it there get in the way of selling it!"
11. The Oppenheim Group now have a Newport Beach office and it's got a spin-off show
At the start of January 2021, Jason Oppenheim confirmed the group have now opened a office in Newport Beach.
In a post on Instagram, he said: 'I'm very proud and excited to announce our new Oppenheim Group office in Newport Beach!! After many years of contemplation, my love for Newport Beach and its exciting real estate opportunities have convinced me to go for it! And if you're going to go, go big, so I found a 4,000 sq. ft. former bank and we are renovating it now - it's going to be the coolest office anywhere, with a full bar, living room, dining area, arcade, pool table, gym, showers, kitchen, vault with whiskey/wine, coffee bar, walls of contemporary art, books, and vintage boom boxes, and who knows, maybe even some desks! Give me a few weeks and I'll post the interior photos 😀'.
It was then confirmed in November 2021 that Selling Sunset will be getting a spin-off show for the new office, called Selling The O.C. - this then aired in August 2022.
Other spin-off shows including Selling Tampa.
12. Emma Hernan once qualified for the Olympics
In series 5, Emma casually dropped the fact she'd once swam a time that would have qualified her for the Olympics! However, she gave up swimming when she was 16 to focus on modelling.
13. The cast pay for their own hair, makeup and wardrobe
You've probably noticed the Selling Sunset girls always look absolutely flawless, dripped head-to-toe in designer gear, but Netflix don't actually pay for any of this!
14. Chrishell Stause and Christine Quinn used to be friends
Despite their now on-going feud, Chrishell Stause and Christine Quinn actually used to be friends - this was until producers pitted them against each other.
Christine once said: "They wanted us to clash obviously and at first, we didn't. We got along great. We were friends. She was at my house. We were drinking, having a good time. I was getting to know her and the storylines came into play. We thought that we were good at separating things."
Selling the OC series three lands on Friday 3rd May.
