Christy was an amazing realtor. My professional expectations of her were to have a thorough knowledge of the process and be able to handle any issues that came up. She met and exceeded my expectations, making this a seamless and very smooth transaction. Her dedication to her work shines through in the service she provides.
The transaction I had was a short sale, and originally I had thought I
would have to have a different company involved in the negotiation
process. That was not the case. I quickly established trust and faith in Christy as she walked me through every step of the process. She
handled the negotiations with the bank and the transaction couldn't
have gone better. The only thing I think could have improved is the time we had to wait, but that was beyond our control.
Christy is a devoted realtor and truly loves what she does. I would
highly recommend her to any of my friends, co-workers, or colleagues who are planning to get into a real estate transaction.

During the purchase of [our] home, Ms. Diaz represented
[Century 21 All Islands] in the upmost manner. Her technical expertise was what I was impressed with the most. She provided me with timely updates and changes as they came about. She also walked me through every step of the way to ensure that I was knowledgeable of my first purchase.
She made this transaction very smooth for me. She explained every form and continued to provide wise counsel in the purchase of my first home. She made me feel comfortable about my purchase and I am extremely happy about
the purchase.

Kenny Gines:
I wanted to write to you and let you know how much my family and I are so grateful in handling our Ewa Beach property. I never imagine me getting in a situation that I was in, but I new I had to do something very soon. I must of interview so many real estate agents regarding short sales, and they all claimed to be an expert. However, after asking some simple questions regarding the process, it was cleared to me that they had no clue or had my interest in my delicate situation.
When I called and met with you to discuss the selling of my home, you explained your marketing strategy and the short sale process in great details. When I asked you question about short sale a home, you were very accurate and detail. You knew the proper forms, what banks were looking for, which department to talk too, the constant communication with me, and most important, keeping the buyer interested throughout
the process.
I knew this was going to be a hard deal because selling a 700,000.00 home in today’s market, is harder due to the smaller range of buyers. With your marketing skills and years in the business, I had multiple offers within weeks. I had the opportunity to be selective in who purchase my home.
Again, Kenny, I want to thank you so much for your service and professionalism throughout this process.
Very respectfully,
M. Herrera

We want to sincerely thank you for your professional management
of our recent home sale in Laulima. Your skilled experience in
assessing the market, combined with your ingenious marketing
strategy and persistent follow through yielded us a signed contract
just four days from the listing date. In a challenging market environment, you were able to get us the best price. Indeed, of the three houses that sold in Laulima during the same time period, our house sold for the highest price; $492 per square foot. A record in anyone’s book!
We highly recommend your expert services to your prospective
clientele, without reservation. You performed as promised,
exceeded our expectations and you produced outstanding results.
Sincerely Yours,
M. Ammen & A. Noriak

Vineeta Jetley provided us with exceptional service while assisting
us with our real estate transaction. As first time home buyers, we
were very nervous about selecting the home that was right for us
and about the steps and procedures that are involved in purchasing
a home. Vineeta went above and beyond to provide us with a
large and diverse selection of homes that suited our needs. She
sent countless email descriptions of available real estate and even escorted us to several locations with our young infant. When we were unsure we were making the right choice, she was very patient and spent additional time searching for homes. She developed a detailed home portfolio that included an abundance of information about real estate on the market in the location of our choice. When we were sure we had selected the perfect home, Vineeta supported us step by step as we progressed through the transaction.
To sum up, Vineeta made us feel comfortable and confident we
were making the right choice every step of the way as we purchased our first home. We would highly recommend d this professional, energetic, and genuine realtor to anyone looking to
purchase real estate.

Aloha Jack,
I can’t believe it has been three weeks since we closed the deal
on our house in Kona Highlands.
[We] just wanted to thank you for everything you did for us during the months the house was on the market. All the extra details you took care of for us were so greatly appreciated. We hope you know how grateful we felt to have you there to handle things that came up. It sure made our lives a lot easier, being off Island. We never would have been able to take care of all the little nuisances that came up during the whole process.
We also appreciate your guidance and expertise regarding price, negotiations and helping us decide when to bite the bullet and
just make the deal work. It was really important to us that we sell
that house and we couldn’t have done it without you.
Whenever we get to the Big Island we will give you a call. And if
you get to Maui, please get in touch with us as well.
Mahalo!

My 3 bedroom penthouse at Kolea was listed with another
realtor for over a year, and had less than 5 showings in that time. Once it was
listed with Johnny McElree, the unit had dozens of showings resulting in a firm
offer less than two months after listing which was negotiated into a cash sale.
This was not a foreclosure or short sale. This was a "real" sale. It
was not only the first sale over $2 million at Kolea since the start of the
recession, but it set a new floor for Kolea properties. There is little doubt
that Johnny's every day and all the time presence at Kolea helped result in so
many showings, and there is little doubt that these many showings resulted in a
sale. Johnny went far above and beyond
the normal scope of realtor activities in walking us through the myriad of
details for selling Hawaiian real estate (note: it is much easier to buy
Hawaiian real estate than it is to sell it!) Although Johnny had only been a
realtor for a short length of time compared to the realtor with whom this
property was originally listed, he was far more knowledgeable in every way, and
was always most pleasant and professional to work with. I have listed two other
properties with Johnny on the Big
Island for precisely
these reasons.

Dear Mr. James Wright,
[I would like to express my satisfaction with the service
that I was provided by BJ K. Melanson, an agent that was recommended through
your Relocation Department to sell my condo in the Makaha Surfside, Hawaii.]
[I live in Seattle
and finding a trust worthy agent that I could depend on was my main concern.
Ms. Melanson provided me with excellent service by assisting me with resolving
a lien that was placed on my unit.] This resolution was very challenging, but
Ms. Melanson helped me to retain the services of an excellent Real Estate
Attorney who handled the matter expeditiously and for a fraction of the normal
attorney fees. The attorney was able to get the Association to lower the lien
from $52,000 to $5,000!
Additionally, I had a car that was not running and needed it
to be removed from the parking stall before selling the unit. BJ took care of
the situation without charging me to do so.
Ms. Melanson marketed my property with much diligence and
brought me an above asking price offer within 5 days of listing the property. Though
my unit sold for a nominal fee and was located in a remote area of the island,
BJ worked as if she was making a million dollar deal. She never lost touch with
the common goal of selling the unit even though the transaction had multiple
challenges. I truly am grateful to BJ Melanson and will refer her and Century
21 All Islands Relocation Department to my friends and family.
Respectfully,
J. Kim

Hillary was there every step of the way doing her best to ensure the process went as smoothly as possible. She worked with me and my lender to anticipate and correct problems before they happened.
She helped me to coordinate various pre-purchase inspections and
walked through with the inspectors since I was stuck back on the mainland. When it came time to close and start signing documents
Hillary clearly and carefully explained every page to me before I signed it. On the infrequent occasion she could not answer a question right off she was always very quick to get back to me with an answer. She kept in contact as well to make sure we had all of the tax documents we needed. Hillary was with Liz and me every step of the way, and helped make the prospect of buying our first home a reality.
I highly recommend Hillary Sibley as your realtor for her
sustained high level of service, professionalism, and courtesy.
