Laura Fleming and her team were absolutely amazing! We were on the fence about selling our first…read morehome in Hawai'i. That home was so special to us, and selling it was not an easy decision. Laura came highly recommended by our property manager, who had managed our home for several years--and now we know why. Please check out my review for Hawaii Pacific Property in Kapolei if you are looking for a good team to manage your home. From the start Laura was professional, organized, and extremely thorough. What stood out most about Laura was her empathy. She never pushed us to sell but truly listened and supported us through the process. Although we had exhausted all the options to make it work, I still had hope that somehow someway we could keep our beloved home. When we finally decided to sell she made a great personable presentation. Her presentation included clear charts, graphs, and market comparisons that made the process easy to understand and gave us full confidence in her strategy. Costs were upfront from the beginning. We were also in the process of purchasing another home on the mainland and had interviewed several realtors--and no one matched the caliber of Laura and her team. Their professionalism, communication, and genuine care set them apart. The communication was outstanding. We were notified every time someone viewed our home, and we received weekly email updates on how many times our listing had been viewed online, what homes sold in the area, . Laura personally called my husband or me every Monday with updates, and her team sent weekly seller reports with clear next steps. Everything was seamless, using DocuSign, Zoom, and other digital tools that made the entire process smooth and stress-free, even while we were on the mainland. We are so grateful to Laura and her team for guiding us step by step and making this sale such a positive experience. Highly recommend if you want a team who is professional, compassionate, and reliable!

I initially contacted Team Lally because Chat told me about their Guaranteed Sale Program, which…read moretheir website promotes as a way to sell your home quickly -- or they'll buy it. The website makes it sound straightforward and gives the impression that you can confidently move forward with purchasing another home. I mentioned this directly to Alesia Borja (MRP, SRES, PSA) before our Zoom meeting. As a listing partner with those credentials, I expected her to understand the program and explain how it works. Instead, the meeting turned into a long one-hour listing presentation, and the Guaranteed Sale Program was not discussed at all, even though that was the main reason I contacted them. Her follow-up response was that she would "connect me with the broker for clarity" and that the program is not designed for sellers who want a home sold in 30 days. That felt like my question was sidestepped rather than answered. Adding to the confusion, my husband listens to Adrienne Lally and Attilio Leonardi on their Saturday morning radio show, where they consistently say that "if they cannot sell your home, they will buy it." That messaging is very clear, yet the explanation I received suggested the reality may be much more limited. Because of that, the Guaranteed Sale Program felt more like a marketing hook to draw people in rather than something clearly explained upfront. Pros: Organized general listing presentation. Cons: The Guaranteed Sale Program, heavily promoted on their website and radio show, is not what it appears to be. Despite this being the main reason I contacted them, the program was not discussed at all during the meeting. Adrienne knew I already have a realtor, who would facilitate my purchase while Team Lally would sell my home, yet the program was still sidestepped. No follow-up has been received.

We were hoping Royalty Realty had something available for what we were looking for (sadly they didn't at the time) since we've had the best experience over the past 4 years with them. Our amazing property manager Michelle Lum made living in one of their units such a joy. Any little issue that came up she was right there and always so helpful every step of the way. We appreciate everything they've done for us, especially her, and making our living experience so comfortable. We will definitely always check back in with Michelle for our future property needs. Thank you for the last 4 amazing years. Aloha!

Renter Beware: Avoid This Property Management Company…read more I rented through this agency for over 4 years, always paid on time, and left the apartment in better condition than when I moved in. Despite this, they withheld most my security deposit and tried to charge me for furniture that was never even provided in the unit. This wasn't an isolated incident of poor service -- I had requested replacement curtains after mine fell apart, and it took the agency over a year to follow through. Communication was consistently unresponsive and unprofessional throughout my tenancy. What makes this worse is that I now own a rental property myself. Having seen how this company treats tenants, I would never use them -- not as a renter, and not as an owner looking for a property management company. They seem far more interested in squeezing every dollar from deposits than treating good tenants fairly. If you're considering renting from this agency, think twice. And if you're a property owner considering hiring them to manage your property, look elsewhere.

He made it very easy for us to sell the house, he did all the work for us, and we very much appreciate it. We most definitely would suggest Arthur to anyone we know who is selling or wanting to purchase a home, he is an expert in the field and we are so lucky to have had him as our realtor. We went into escrow 5 days after listing, had offers prior to even going on the market, and sold at the highest value in the area thus far! Arthur managed it all with clear communication and made it all stress free.

Like someone…read moreelse wrote in their review: "Their professionalism is unmatched, especially their care for details." I couldn't agree more. I worked with another real estate agent before Joe and the difference was night and day. Not only did I need to sell my Hawaii property long distance, the market at the time was challenging and the apartment building was scheduled for repiping. But Joe and his team came through every step of the way. From the beginning, they provided a clear break down of costs vs. expected actual net profit and offered various options for marketing packages. Finally, when my unit sold, they provided weekly updates of the current timeline till closing. If you're still reading this, just take one meeting with Joe and you'll know.

Ola Properties was my property manager starting in 2021, back when Larry was still involved. Things…read moreran smoothly back then, but once ownership changed, the quality went downhill fast. The biggest issue was the lack of communication and transparency. Decisions were made without consulting us, and when we asked questions, the responses always seemed to prioritize Ola's internal agenda rather than what was best for our villa. We also started noticing a steady increase in fees. What used to be a simple structure with a few charges turned into a long list--transaction fees, credit card fees, even fees just to speak to someone live. It felt excessive and, at times, questionable. The breaking point was how they handled our belongings when we decided to leave. We requested our original linens back, but they had removed tags to make everything "community linens." When we finally received items, they didn't match, some were clearly older than what we originally had, and others still had tags from different units. It was disorganized and unacceptable. To make matters worse, we were promised replacements or compensation, but in the end, we were given poor-quality linens that didn't come close to what we had before. Communication during this process was frustrating--calls and concerns were often ignored or brushed off. There are good people working there, but overall, the leadership and management practices made it impossible for us to trust the company. The lack of respect and common courtesy for the people who employ them--and who they claim to serve--is appalling. Based on our experience, I would not return. I have the emails and receipts if they wanted to dispute my claims.

Made assumptions on our late payments since she looked at our rental history.

When I called to get an update she said "I can't look at something on the computer if I'm not at a computer and I can't give you and update if you keep calling" Mind you, I only called her once that day and apologized to her as we were stressed about finding a new apartment for ourselves and two kids. Would not recommend anyone to work with Vineeta.

I absolutely cannot say enough about the amazing experience we had with Jill and Hulali Kai Realty…read more Jill leads and runs her company with so much aloha and professionalism. She went above and beyond the normal duties of a typical realtor in order to help get our property sold in this crazy market! She really helped us close a couple gaps we were struggling with and got us an offer that blew our expectations and hopes. She truly is an expert in her field and in the Kapolei area. I was able to come to her with the tiniest questions and got a response right away! Selling a house is a scary and emotional process, my family and I were able to completely trust Jill every step of the way. I am not sure what the other review was referring to as that hasn't been my experience with Jill or her team at all. I have noticed that the reviewer has made several unfavorable reviews with the same comment of "being a waste of time and gas". I guess everything with a grain of salt. Mahalo Jill and the team at Hulali Kai for taking care of my family and for all of the time and energy you put into helping us. You have a heart of gold in an industry where that isn't very common!
