Meet AJ

AJ Olson Whitfield is a leader in the new generation of coastal Orange County’s high-achieving luxury residential real estate professionals. Since launching her career in 2009, AJ has forged a reputation for incomparable client service, impressive market knowledge, a best-in-class network, and—most importantly—for achieving market-leading results for her clients.

AJ’s affinity for real estate started at a young age. With an extensive family background revolving around real estate sales and development, she grew up having an immersive experience. This immersion has equipped AJ with an instinct for the profession and set her on the path to follow in her grandfather, Forest E. Olson’s, footsteps. After graduating Magna Cum Laude from USC’s Marshall School of Business, she worked alongside two of the highest-selling, most respected agents in Orange County, Evan Corkett and Steve High, at Coldwell Banker Previews International.

As a born-and-raised native of Newport Beach, AJ is especially sought after for her extensive first-hand knowledge of the local real estate market within Newport, Corona del Mar, Laguna Beach, and Eastside Costa Mesa, where she has completed many successful transactions. Beyond the breadth and depth of her market intelligence and network, AJ is known for her innovative strategies, astute attention to detail, and competitive drive. 

With her own practice, backed by the award-winning marketing, technology, and brand support at EQTY | Forbes Global Properties in Newport Beach, AJ continues to serve as the gold standard for service and success. Having represented more than $150 million in career sales, she is one of the highest producing agents of her generation in Orange County.

In addition to her sales success, AJ has taken on several new construction projects of her own. Now in her fourth new home build, she has built an extensive knowledge of planning, construction, and design. This involvement in all facets of the real estate business gives her a unique perspective on what possibilities are open to the buyers and sellers she represents.

AJ resides with her husband and their two daughters in Eastside Costa Mesa, where she is active in the community as a member of the Newport Harbor Yacht Club and the Big Canyon Country Club. AJ’s passion for what she does even extends to her “days off” which she spends picking out finishes or sourcing products for her latest project.
