Testimonials

"My name is Robb, and we have done 3 different transactions with Lena on the beautiful island of Maui. She has lived on the island for many years and knows the market very well. We really appreciated the good communication that Lena had with us, as well as her ability to keep the deal from stalling or disappearing altogether. Having a "timeline sheet" that we could reference once we had an offer relieved a lot of stress and confusion of what stage we were at during the process. We are not from the US, so the laws and regulations are slightly different. Lena is well-connected with some of the local trades, which came in very handy when trying to get some of the small items taken care of. Lena was always very professional and would notify us when there were any changes or developments in the deal. We would highly recommend Lena for all your real estate needs."

Robb B.

"Awesome realtor, she went above and beyond the call of duty to help us sell our unit in Maui at a great price and quick sale! Highly recommended!"

Romano

"We just closed the sale of our condo in Kihei. Lena was a delightful professional from beginning to end. She was always available to us, which included our being on the mainland with a three-hour time difference. You would never know, because Lena always replied promptly! We negotiated several offers and worked quickly to come to an agreement on the perfect sale price and terms, all via DocuSign! The closing was quick and smooth. Lena kept us informed of developments and forthcoming documents from the title company. This was my first sale, and it was perfect! Thank you, Lena!"

Seller

"Lena did a great job representing us in the sale of our family's Kihei condo. I especially appreciate the fact that she was very organized and on top of all the deadlines in the challenging 2-week closing we faced. Lena made the process of selling our condo smooth and easy from start to finish."

Ana W.

"I would highly recommend Lena. She was very professional and was able to show me properties in Kihei on very short notice. She had a lifetime of knowledge of the area and was very kind and helpful."

Kathy Sue M.

"I was in need of a house at very short notice due to a new job opportunity on Maui. Lena was referred by a friend and provided several excellent listings. Her knowledge of the local area and housing market was great. The process of putting in an offer right through escrow was smooth and easy. I now have a wonderful new (to me) house, in an excellent area with great investment potential!"

Buyer & Seller

"In September 2016, while on Maui, we drove around looking at houses with signs for sale. We called three realtors from the numbers on the sign. Lena was the only one who answered. The other two were voicemail, and they never returned our call at all. That very day, Lena took a great deal of time on the phone with us. She also scheduled a showing the next day. She deligently sends us property listings that she thinks we may like. She also referred us to a realtor when we flew to Kauai in late December to look at properties there. When we came over to Maui on short notice after 8 days on Kauai. She spent hours to line up viewings of properties on Maui. She forwarded the listing ahead of time for our review. When we met her at the first showing, she handed us a cold goodie bag with waters, coconut water, nuts, and fruit, so thoughtful as it was a very warm day and we had failed to get water. Lena was very organized and prompt in all her services. We had one of the best experiences with a realtor with Lena."

Leonard K.

"Lena has been a pleasure to work with and easy to communicate with. She has, on occasion, done housekeeping chores in order to have the unit in top-notch shape for a scheduled showing. If I had something else to sell, I would pick her again in a heartbeat."

Seller

"We moved from Michigan to Maui back in November 2017. Lena was very attentive and pursued all properties I requested until we found the right place for us within a few months. We would recommend her to anyone."

Buyer

"Working with Lena was amazing! She was always early, filed all the documents in a timely fashion, and anticipated my needs and wants. I highly recommend her! She even had a welcome basket for me the day escrow closed, and she handed me the keys to my new home. Her services go above and beyond. I am so grateful to have bought my first house with Lena."
