Experience
As full time sales agent, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise about buying and selling real estate here on Oahu. It's not the same everywhere, so you need someone you can trust for up-to-date information and someone who is respected by their peers which is important when it comes time to negotiate your sale.
Sell a Home
When it's time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I take care of everything you need, from start to close.
Consult on Home Selling Tactics
Often buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience – which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast.
