ROB GIEM
Rob Giem has spent over thirty years representing buyers and sellers of premier coastal properties in Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, and across coastal Orange County. Widely regarded for his deep market knowledge, strategic approach to marketing, and negotiation skills, Rob has built enduring relationships grounded in trust and discretion. His clients rely on his ability to generate maximum exposure for their properties while simultaneously managing transactions with the utmost confidentiality and care—often brokering high-value deals that never reach the public market.
Recognized by RealTrends and The Wall Street Journal, Rob has been the highest-producing individual agent in Orange County for numerous years, most recently in 2023. He has played a central role in many of the region’s most notable and record-setting transactions across Newport Beach, Newport Coast, Corona del Mar, and Laguna Beach. No agent in Orange County’s history has closed more sales above the $10 million mark—a distinction underscored by his exceptional average transaction value, which has remained above $10 million annually since 2008. This consistent performance has earned him a place among the top ten agents nationwide.
Beyond sales, Rob offers invaluable guidance on complex design, renovation, and new construction projects. His long-standing relationships with top-tier architects, designers, and builders, combined with his comprehensive understanding of development processes, allow him to deliver unparalleled service to clients with ambitious and exacting standards.
