The forthcoming season sees the return of Chrishell Stause, Chelsea Lazkani, Emma Hernan, Nicole Young, Alaina Gold, Mary Fitzgerald, Amanza Smith, Bre Tiesi, and Jason and Brett Oppenheim, the brokers behind the agency.

Joining them is newcomer Sandra Vergara, who you may recognise as A-lister Sofia Vergara's adoptive sister. Like her sibling, Sandra is an actress with credits including 2011 horror film, Fright Night, which features Colin Farrell and David Tennant.

Ahead of the new series, the Colombian star explained her decision to join the Oppenheim Group agents.

"The O Group felt like the perfect fit: sharp, high energy, and full of people who are at the top of their game," she told Tudum.

She went on to tease: "Season 9 definitely brings some unexpected twists. There are some jaw-dropping moments you won’t see coming."

As for her selling skills, Sandra has "always had an eye for design and a love for people". Therefore, "combining that in real estate just clicked."
