John Stremel is an Orange County Coastal Luxury Real Estate specialist with Keller Williams, serving Newport Beach, Newport Coast, Corona Del Mar, Laguna Beach, Huntington Beach, Eastside Costa Mesa, and Irvine. As the founder of John Stremel Coastal Luxury Real Estate, John helps buyers, sellers, and investors navigate one of the most competitive coastal markets in Southern California.
With over 40 years of real estate experience, John brings rare insight from many sides of the industry, including title insurance, map processing, escrow, lending, foreclosures, REO properties, sales, marketing, real estate development, and residential construction. That broad background gives his clients a stronger understanding of the choices, challenges, and opportunities involved in reaching their real estate goals.
John’s practice centers on the communities he knows street by street — from the bluff-top estates of Newport Coast and the village charm of Corona Del Mar to the beach-close neighborhoods of Laguna Beach and Huntington Beach. His clients range from first-time luxury buyers to seasoned investors seeking income properties along the Orange County coast, and his approach is the same for all of them: deep local knowledge, straight answers, and steady guidance through every step of the transaction.
