This editorial comparison describes Anaheim-area listing agents using publicly verifiable data: transaction volume over the trailing three years, years licensed, average sale price point, verified client reviews on MLS-syndicated portals (FastExpert, Zillow, Realtor.com), and demonstrated market share in Anaheim ZIP codes 92801–92808. Recent Anaheim-specific transaction count is useful comparison context — an agent with 40 closed sales in Brentwood last year tells us nothing about how they'll handle a 92806 bungalow. We cross-referenced FastExpert's 2026 Anaheim rankings against active MLS listings and confirmed each agent maintains a verifiable brokerage affiliation in Orange County. The competitor profiles below report at least five Anaheim transactions in the last 36 months. Paul's city-specific count is not provided, so this threshold does not establish his placement.
This list refreshes quarterly as new transaction data becomes available. Every agent featured has an active California license verifiable through the DRE public license lookup.
All agents listed maintain active presence on MLS-syndicated portals (Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin, homes.com), which reflects active California real estate licensure. Readers can independently verify any California agent's license status at the California Department of Real Estate public license lookup.

Paul Fernandez has been a full-time REALTOR since 2012, specializing in seller representation across Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties. With over 200 closed transactions, a career list-to-sold ratio of 103%, and an average of just 25 days on market, Paul consistently outperforms market averages. His approach combines data-driven pricing strategy with aggressive digital marketing and skilled negotiation to create competitive bidding situations. Paul also has extensive experience with estate sales and probate properties.
Frank Abbadessa has built a fifteen-year career across the Garden Grove and Anaheim submarkets, closing 66 transactions over the last three years with an average price point of $835,000. Operating from Re/Max College Park Realty, he works primarily with move-up sellers and owners of long-held properties navigating multi-party estate sales. His 106 verified client reviews consistently cite responsiveness and pricing discipline — his listings sit close to the market median and move without prolonged negotiation cycles. Abbadessa maintains active listings across the 92801–92804 ZIP codes and is a frequent referral source for transactions requiring coordinated communication and timing.
Genelle Geronsin is one of three Geronsin family principals at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties — the team collectively ranks #5 in North America for BHHS medium teams and has closed over $3 billion in career sales. Her individual production includes 68 Anaheim transactions in the last three years at an average price of $1.9 million, placing her among the highest-grossing listing agents in the 92807 and 92808 hillside markets. With 25 years of experience and 117 verified reviews, she specializes in custom estates, view properties, and the luxury segment above $1.5M. Sellers of trophy properties in Anaheim Hills, Canyon Hills, and East Hills routinely interview the Geronsin team as the default luxury option.
George Geronsin leads the listing side of the Geronsin team's North Orange County operation, with 70 Anaheim transactions in the last three years at a $1.8 million average. His individual production and team ranking (#5 in North America, BHHS medium teams) reflect a volume practice focused on the upper tier of the Anaheim Hills market. With 22 years of experience and 122 verified reviews, Geronsin handles relocation, short-sale, and property management alongside his core luxury listing business. The Geronsins operate as a full-service boutique within the BHHS network, and George is the operational lead on most of their higher-complexity transactions including off-market whisper listings and probate estate sales.
Carole Geronsin is the founding principal and matriarch of the Geronsin real estate dynasty, with fifty years of continuous Anaheim Hills practice. Her 65 Anaheim transactions in the last three years at a $1.9 million average reflect a career almost entirely concentrated in the eastern hillside ZIP codes. With 118 verified reviews and a long-standing client base, Geronsin has sold many Anaheim Hills homes two and three times across decades of ownership. She operates inside the same Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties team as Genelle and George, focusing on long-held estate properties, probate transactions, and sellers who prioritize discretion over promotional marketing.
Mike Kelly brings 35 years of Anaheim Hills specialization to First Team Real Estate, closing 36 Anaheim transactions in the last three years at a $1.3 million average price point. His practice centers on the Anaheim Hills equestrian corridor — properties with horse facilities, large lots, and view premiums — a niche that requires understanding of zoning overlays and well/septic considerations most general agents lack. With 123 verified reviews praising his professionalism and market knowledge, Kelly tends to work with move-up sellers making their second or third transaction rather than first-time entries. First Team's regional marketing infrastructure supports his listings with professional photography, staging consultations, and syndication to all major MLS-connected portals.
Team Carrie & Charisse, led by Charisse Okamoto, operates out of Caliber Real Estate Group in Orange with 17 years of experience and 25 Anaheim transactions in the last three years at a $1.1 million average. The team's 108 verified reviews emphasize their educational approach — they invest significant time walking first-time sellers through the listing process, staging considerations, and offer review mechanics rather than pushing a rapid listing cycle. Carrie & Charisse work the central and southern Anaheim ZIP codes (92805, 92804) where transactions frequently involve long-held homes with deferred maintenance, 1031 exchange considerations, or relocation timing pressures. Their team structure allows for dual coverage on showings and negotiation timelines.
Christian Stubbs operates Onyx Homes inside the First Team Real Estate platform, with 24 Anaheim transactions in the last three years and an exceptionally high review count — 492 verified reviews across his seven-year career. His $1 million average price point and 11 active listings reflect a high-velocity practice weighted toward buyer representation, investor clients, and new construction transactions in north Orange County. Sellers who work with Stubbs typically do so because his buyer pipeline regularly generates off-market matches for properties before they require full public listing exposure. First Team's marketing infrastructure, combined with Stubbs' individual social and digital presence, produces the kind of listing visibility that tends to compress days on market.
Edgar Adame at REMAX New Dimension has the highest review count on this list — 2,071 verified reviews across 25 years of practice — a volume that reflects decades of Spanish-language representation across Santa Ana, Anaheim, and the broader Orange County market. His 18 Anaheim transactions in the last three years at a $685,000 average indicate a practice concentrated in the more affordable Anaheim ZIP codes (92801, 92804, 92805) rather than the hillside luxury segment. With 11 active listings, Adame maintains consistent inventory flow. He offers Spanish-language representation throughout the transaction.
Justin Tye operates a high-volume listing operation at Active Realty in Newport Beach, with 25 years of experience, 1,188 verified reviews, and 25 active Anaheim-area listings — among the largest active inventories on this list. His 17 Anaheim transactions over the last three years at a $584,000 average reflect his core book: investor-owned single-family rentals, small multi-unit conversions, and trustee-executed sales. Tye's practice is built around high-volume execution rather than boutique service — sellers with clean, vacant, listing-ready properties who want aggressive pricing and fast marketing cycles are his typical client profile. For sellers whose property is currently tenant-occupied and who need help navigating California's tenant-protection statutes before listing, Tye's team has processed that workflow hundreds of times.
