California Island Real Estate’s sales and listings put it among the top 6 percent of real estate agencies in the Greater Los Angeles Area, according to one of the nation’s leading property listing services.


According to one CIRE broker, one of his colleges ranked among the top 3 percent of individual agents last year.

According to Southern California’s Multiple Listing Service, CIRE is ranked 69 out of 1,335 offices in Southern California for its number of listings and sales.

The Southern California Multiple Listing Service describes itself as the largest listing service in the U.S.

“Our real estate team’s success in 2012 is another good sign of the renaissance taking place on Catalina,” said CIRE broker John C. Gilbert. “Our top producer last year was Kelly Nelson, who closed 22 of CIRE’s 25 transactions. More than a great agent for us, she ranks in the top 3 percent out of the 13,590 licensed agents in the entire Los Angeles area.”

“The real estate market in Avalon continues to be robust, and it’s an exciting time for all of us at CIRE,” said Nelson. “I truly love my career and the people I work with, and selling real estate on this beautiful island is an absolute pleasure.”

During the midst of her busy year, Nelson found time to study and pass the California Real Estate Brokers’ exam and become a licensed broker. Now, only 11 weeks into 2013, she has sold two properties and has six more in escrow.  

With more than three decades of experience, CIRE’s Realtors are uniquely familiar, qualified and eager to help people find their perfect home on the island. The entire team lives in Avalon and is active in the community, making them the ideal source for information about how special it is to own property in such an exquisite, charming and peaceful place.

Catalina Island Real Estate is the ideal partner to bring buyers and sellers together in a way that makes them both happy with their Avalon real estate experiences.
