- Sandra Vergara is the newest real estate agent on *Selling Sunset *season 9.

- The cast member is *Modern Family *star Sofía Vergara's sister by adoption, cousin by birth.

- The newest member of the Oppenheim Group butted heads with costar Chrishell Stause in the season finale.

There's a new agent in town on *Selling Sunset*.

Season 9 hit Netflix on Wednesday, featuring the dramatic ouster of realtor Nicole Young and, shortly after, the introduction of a new member to the Oppenheim Group as Sandra Vergara was added to the crew in episode 6.

As her name — and face — might suggest, Vergara is related to *Modern Family* star Sofía Vergara.

"She's biologically my first cousin, but her mom adopted me so we grew up as sisters," the Colombia native explained on the show, admitting she is just beginning her real estate journey. "People that are close to me were always like, 'Oh my God, you need to do real estate. You'd be killing it.' And hello, here I am."**

Like her famous relative, Vergara has acted, appearing on shows like *CSI, CSI: Miami, Nip/Tuck, *and a six-episode arc on*The Bold and the Beautiful *in 2013. Shared soap opera experience wasn't the only thing Vergara had in common with former *Days of Our Lives *actress and current *Selling Sunset *star Chrishell Stause.**

"You remember when you were on *Dancing With the Stars*? I was an entertainment journalist for *PEOPLE *and I would interview you every week," Sandra revealed to her new coworker, who didn't recall their past meeting.

Things got off to a rocky start on Vergara's first day in the office when she began to ask the group a question and stopped cold as fellow agent Emma Hernan took a phone call, which clearly irritated the newbie.

"You can't be the new person in an office and get frustrated at somebody's phone ringing," Stause warned in a confessional.

The situation grew more awkward between Stause and her newest colleague as the season went on.

In the finale, Vergara admitted to a few other agents that she wasn't "sure if Chrishell likes me," pointing out Stause often made an awkward face around her.

When she went to check out one of Stause's listings, Vergara decided to question her about it directly — and got a shocking answer.

"Have I rubbed you the wrong way in any way or something?" Vergara asked. "It's just a feeling I get. I just feel a bit of resistance."

After some more uncomfortable back-and-forth, Stause pulled out her phone to show Vergara a photo and ask if she knew the person or ever lived in a building with them. After Vergara replied in the negative, the *Traitors* star revealed it was her assistant who'd claimed Vergara once keyed her car.

"I've never keyed anybody's car. Not even an ex," Vergara insisted.

"I was nothing but friendly to you. You wanna try to paint it like I wasn't, that's your prerogative," Stause fired back. "I wait and see how someone moves because this is all my experience with people when they join the office. And I thought it would be different with you, so I am disappointed."

Vergara responded that "the last thing I want is to disrespect you, or to come at you in any way, shape, or form." And in a confessional, she observed that "Chrishell seems like a person who believes everyone's out to get her and I'm not out to get her at all."

They agreed to move on and just focus on the work, but then Vergara started to cry**

"The whole key thing, that was shocking. Like, I've never keyed a car. That's f---ed up. The last thing I want is to have you upset at me. I know you don't want to be mean," she told Stause, swearing she wasn't trying to start drama.

"Honestly, you do have to toughen up a little bit, because at the end of the day, nothing matters except for your success and what you're there to do," Stause advised.

Vergara thanked her for the advice. But when she met up with other cast members later to tell them about the "hiccup," she claimed she asked Stause if there was any other dirt on her and actress said she'd "save it."

Next Wednesday's reunion is set to be spicy!
