  • Lailan helped me buy a home

      Lailan was highly recommended to us by our realtor in CA. She was full of local insight, was attentive to our desires, and found us the home of our dreams. She was with us every step of the way, had a ton of patience, and helped us come up with solutions to meet problems, as well as negotiate a fair price. Since closing, she’s remained in touch and continues to help us find solutions for little fixes around the home. This has been very helpful as we are new to this island and do not know who’s best to contact.. I’d highly recommend Lailan if you’re seeking property in Hawai’i.

    • Lailan helped me buy a home

        Lailan helped us buy our first condo in Hawaii recently. Even though I was out of state for the entire transaction, Lailan made sure she was an effective set of eyes and ears on the ground. She went above and beyond by helping me get set up with good property managers and other services.

      • Lailan helped me buy a home

          We can not express enough of our gratitude and appreciation for Lailan and her assistance in helping us close on our recent property in Kailua-Kona. Lailan made us feel comfortable, made us feel as if we’ve known her all our lives, while also demonstrating to us her highest regard for professionalism as well as efficient and prompt and effective responses to all tasks, at every step along the way. Lailan got things done for us; there was not a single task up to the closing of the deal that she did not at least attempt for us, even when the we had an inkling of thought that the task might be a little ridiculous. Lailan is, herself, a source of vast knowledge and resources, which she generously shared with us as needed, and throughout our work with Lailan, she was able to link us up to all the right professionals that ultimately assisted us in deciding that our purchase was safe and good. Furthermore, with Lailan’s help, we were able to save 12% off what the previous owner had asked for the property we purchased. We are extremely satisfied with our purchase and extremely appreciative of Lailan, and we happily recommend anyone to Lailan who is looking for a real real-estates agent, who is on your side.

        • Lailan listed and sold my home

            There are numerous RE agents her in West Hawaii. Most consider it a second job. Not Lailan, she works very hard to make things happen. All the time. We have bought and sold several properties using her services. Always outstanding. I wouldn't consider using anyone else.

          • Lailan helped me buy a home

              I worked with Lailan over the past 4 months to help me find a great Big Island home. This was the conclusion of a 2 year hunt where I must have looked at 400 or so listings or so and realized I needed professional help. Lailan was very patient with me listening to my wants and being honest and realistic about a very different market in Hawaii. Not only did she grow up on the Big Island but has been there her whole life. That is one of the main reasons I selected Lailan as my agent. Local knowledge is invaluable and Lailan has it in droves. In addition, Lailan was instrumental in working with the property owners who were the selling agents to create a fair deal for both parties. What a great job all the way through closing. Easy peasy, 27 days from acceptance of offer to move in!!!! Thanks very much. Bruce K

            • Lailan helped me buy a home

                Lailan was a delight to deal with. She was the most prompt, professional and courteous realtor we have ever had. We felt listened to and represented very well by Lailan. We don’t intend on moving again but would recommend her highly to anyone that needs a realtor.

              • Lailan helped me buy a home

                  We found Lailan to be an exceptional real estate agent. We have done multiple real estate deals over the last few years and she is by far the most competent, pro-active and professional agent that we have utilized. She is on top of things, keeps you posted on developments, moves the process along, and willingly takes the extra steps to get the job done. Highly recommended!

                    • Lailan listed and sold my home

                        Lailan is very knowledgeable and very responsive. She has an amazing photographer and also helped us out using many of her different resources to get us an affordable a new roof and some plumbing work done prior to listing our home. We were very pleased with her experience and dedication. She helped us close in the middle of a pandemic and that takes skill.
