Providing Exceptional Real Estate Service Since 1985

The Hawaii real estate industry has evolved significantly since I first started my real estate career in 1985. Gone are the days when the purchase contract was one page and the average home price was around $100,000. But the good news is the real estate industry has evolved and matured for the benefit of the consumer, and real estate is still a sound long term investment that can help secure your future.

Our company philosophy is simple, treat people as you would like to be treated and provide an honest, ethical and educated service. Our goal is to meet and exceed your expectations. Our ability to provide competent real estate brokerage services is reflected in our ability to have never had a complaint or legal action, ever.

We provide a custom real estate experience to our clients. We are always available 24/7 and return calls within minutes. We are all about quality and not quantity. Your Realtor should know at all times everything that is happening in your transaction. You will always be working directly with and communicating to the broker, not an assistant.

"By selectively limiting my clientele, I can provide a highly responsive level of value-added service and fully protect the interests of each client.

Trust is hard to come by in today's fiercely competitive real estate market. We are here to earn your trust and provide you with the professionalism and integrity needed to ensure that you feel secure in what can be one of the biggest decisions of your life.
