They kept us informed every step of the way and stayed calm and professional when complications came up with the seller, all while making sure we were able to move in on time!

They took beautiful pictures and really brought our property to life with our listing and their description. Even when tragedy hit us soon after listing, and we lost our home to a fire, they stayed by our side gave us all the comforting words of encouragement and kept it positive every step of the way. Seth was able to sell our property for what we relisted it for. I didn't think it would happen after the fire, but they didn't give up on us. They always had our best interest at heart and we feel completely taken care of. Always attentive and checking in. Thank you so much for your work and sticking by us. We seriously can't thank you enough.

Yurts of HI was the contractor on my build in 2019. They installed my catchment. I paid YOH for a…read morebrand new liner, for which they invoiced me and for which YOH accepted payment. Her subcontractors installed a liner that had a hole in it which they patched up but told no one. A new, undamaged liner is meant to last more than 10-15 years. Mine failed after only 6 years because the glue on the patch wore off and my catchment leaked out all my water. I had to buy water. The low water level burned out my pressure pump, so I had to buy a new pump. So far, I've had to spend over $3000 for a new liner, pump and water. I am dealing with her now to try to get recourse, but she refuses to accept any responsibility and rather is trying to lay the blame on a subcontractor she used and whom she later fired because of some substandard work or dishonesty; this sub has been out of business for some time. I gave her two options: that she either reimburse me for all my expenses because of the dishonest work, or pay me for just the materials I've had to purchase. I believe this is reasonable. Yet, she is refusing to accept any responsibility. Be warned!

She responded to texts, she planned the project & timeline very well. The contractors showed up on time with the big machinery to make our 400' driveway.

Very good quality, insulation, and structure stability. Melissa and her office staff was friendly and responsive. Considering another project with Yurts of Hawaii!! Thank you for our new home!

Call at once whatever your home needs. Kat and her well trained team can do most everything. Or…read moreon the off-chance you are calling about a home improvement project, remodel challenge or to fix something she does not, she will know great hand picked people who can and will. Great project manager - She communicates super well, does exactly what she says she will do, when she says she will do it, and if others are involved, she supervises well and checks all the work. She has a remarkable array of well-honed, high-level building skills herself though, and has loads of experience. She has managed my vacation home on the Big Island for several years now, and does a wonderful job dealing with all the exigencies of vacation rental including dealing in a friendly manner with extremely difficult renters. Two other special qualities of hers are beautiful aesthetic sense, and her reliability across the board in everything. She matches the look and feel of a place in all her furnishing and decor work and she makes wonderful additions and suggestions to enhance a home environment. I have been blessed to work with some really great reliable people there, but Kat takes the prize in the reliability, and quick response department too. Yeah, definitely, call Kat!

I am from California and the other family members were in Hawaii (one on a different island). Alon helped coordinate getting the properties listed for sale working diligently between the three family members. This was not an easy task and it took over three years to complete. It was a lot of work dealing with three clients as well as the property being in bad shape. He always kept myself and my family updated on every phase of the sale and was great at answering all questions that came up. Alon always kept a positive attitude under all circumstances. I highly recommend Alon for your realtor needs.

Unfortunately Carlson Homes will not be building my dream home…read more  I had been working with Carlson Homes for over a year. They bid my project and I signed their proposal with enthusiasm 11/19. A couple of months later I got a call. They forgot two major details in my design. As a result, the cost went up nearly $62k... I understood and accepted the new proposal.  Then COVID hit and everything in my life got put on hold... Nine months or so later I re-engaged with Carlson Homes and gave them the opportunity to re-bid. Of course everything went up in price. I accepted their proposal again.  Very recently I made the 3000 mile move to the island with everything in tow. Then, as we were finalizing the contract documents with Carlson Homes and the Material House, Carlson Homes backed out sighting ..."multiple delays"... As I've read these glowing reviews, the most current of which was Aug 2016, I can't help but think something has suffered over the years since 2016 at Carlson Homes. It's not for me to speculate here.  I will say that I very much looked forward to Carlson Homes building my dream home. I have been seriously inconvenienced by them backing out leaving me high & dry, and starting from scratch. Mahalo for that...

My experience with Sergey and his team was very positive from the beginning to the end. His estimate was throughout, detailed, and realistic. He took the time to learn about what I envisioned, my style, my budget, and gave me helpful suggestions. Learning about him and his past projects, developed trust in him to choose the right options and materials that would match my taste and expectation. Overall, I'm very happy with the end result and have been recommending Sergey to my friends and family. It was a pleasure working with Sergey, his brother Dima, and his team. I would hire them again for my future projects.

Sergey responded quickly to the request…read morefor an estimate, came to investigate, identified the work to be done, and gave a very reasonable estimated price. He sent a crew quickly before several days of expected rain to do some waterproofing work on the roof to avoid further water damage. Once the rain had passed, he sent his crew back out to repair the damaged areas and repaint. The repairs look great, and the final cost was only a little above the original estimate due to some unexpected work on one of our windows.

My plantation style house was built in 1945 and needed fresh paint, rebuilding of the car port, repairs and restoration including replacing all the window screens. The house is large, three floors and asymmetrical structure, with a few challenging areas and hard to get to angles. Ralph San Miguel himself came out in person and did a very thorough assessment of my requirements before providing an estimate. While the cost was more than I had budgeted, Ralph explained the difficulties posed by my house and the scope of work required. I felt confident that he knew what he was doing, and the payment terms were reasonable. I was impressed with his crew from day one. They did a professional job handling all of the prep, carpentry and painting. They were courteous, thorough and clearly took a lot of pride in the work. All aspects of the job were completed in a timely manner and On budget. Ralph and his crew went above and beyond to do exceptional quality work with attention to detail.
