We were cash buyers looking for a quick close as we were moving back home with two dogs and rentals are hard to find. We felt we were the aggressor trying to find a condo which is not comfortable. I am not quite sure what has happened but we there was so much confusion during our escrow about what was happening: paperwork, approvals, and lack of communication. It was difficult to receive much information regarding our dogs being approved and how the moving container would be delivered. There was so much stress during this time when it is generally a happy time. It has been over 8 months and there has been no follow-up from Tracy about the defects. We were truly grateful for the help of the buyers agent for keeping the process moving forward.

He listens to our preferences and needs, gives honest insights/advice, and is very thorough. We also appreciate his frequent communication with us throughout the different stages of the process.

We highly recommend Tracy for your buying/selling needs.

When we made the difficult decision to sell our beloved Kailua home, we knew we needed an agent who…read morewas more than just competent--we needed someone who genuinely understood what the home meant to us. We interviewed nearly 20 different real estate companies searching for the right partnership. Most of the agents gave us the same scripted sales pitch, rattled off statistics, and treated our home like one more notch in their inventory. Nothing felt personal, and none of them made us feel truly heard. Then we met Sherine. From the very first conversation, everything changed. There was an instant sense of trust and sincerity. Sherine listened--not just to what we said, but to what mattered to us. Her knowledge of the Kailua market was immediately clear, but it was her warmth, empathy, and genuine interest in our story that set her apart. She didn't look at our home as a transaction; she treated it with the same respect and care she would give to her own or a close family member's. Sherine and Leanna then staged the property with a level of artistry and intention that is indescribable. They incorporated thoughtful, local, deeply personal touches--from curated furnishings to stunning artwork created by Leanna and other Kailua artists. Every room felt alive, welcoming, and beautifully representative of what makes Kailua special. The transformation was so incredible that we actually started questioning whether we should sell at all! Most of the agents we interviewed insisted that our home wouldn't sell for more than $1.7M. Sherine, however, saw value that others completely overlooked. She was confident--very confident--that she could secure an offer at $1.9M or more. She believed in the home, believed in her strategy, and believed in what she could deliver for us. And she was right. Just shortly after the very first showing, we accepted an astonishing $2.1M all-cash offer. More than $400,000 above what numerous other agents told us was even remotely possible. From that point on, the experience felt almost surreal--in the best way. The entire process was quick, smooth, stress-free, and surprisingly effortless for us. Sherine and her entire team worked like a well-orchestrated machine, anticipating needs before they arose and handling every detail with professionalism, grace, and heart. We were able to focus on our next chapter while Sherine handled everything behind the scenes. Selling a home, especially one filled with years of memories, is never easy. But Sherine made it not only manageable--she made it meaningful. She honored our home, protected our interests, advocated fiercely for us, and delivered results that still leave us speechless. We cannot adequately express our gratitude for Sherine's expertise, compassion, integrity, and unwavering dedication. She is in a league of her own. If you are searching for a real estate agent who embodies Aloha and who will treat you, your home, your goals, and your experience with genuine care and an unwavering commitment to excellence, look no further. Sherine is the one.

We wish all rental agencies were as easy to deal with, helpful and friendly as HI Pro Realty. Just to give an example of their outstanding service: we reported an issue with our garage door which we couldn't open with the remotes, or manually on a weekday morning. Within hours both Mr Lawrence and the homeowner were liaising with my husband to rectify the issue as soon as possible. We had repairs carried out in a timely manner, all the while Mr Lawrence and the property owner stayed in touch the whole time keeping us up to date. We were very happy with the service provided by all. The HI Pro Realty office is located in the Century Center building on Kalakaua Avenue. There is ample paid parking available onsite and a 24hr front desk that services all businesses in the center. I would highly recommend renting or buying through HI Pro Realty.

We met at an open house and I was instantly impressed with her knowledge and professionalism of the Windward side of Oahu (Kailua and surrounding areas).

Here I am one year later and Francine is still with me. She has introduced me to numerous trades people and answered every question I have thrown at her. All of her recommendations have been stellar. I stopped checking them out and comparing them to other alternatives after about 6 months when I realized, she always recommends the perfect solution for my specific needs having gotten to know me like so well. For a hardworking, ethical, intelligent, resourceful realtor, I am convinced Francine is the best for Windward properties on Oahu. Five well-earned stars!

I found OahuRE while searching for a flat rate listing service. I was already going to loose a…read morelittle money in this tough seller's market and wanted to minimize the losses. Being somewhat experienced with real estate, I felt I could handle much of the sale myself. OahuRE does give you options. For 2% they will provide full service listing. However the $3,500 flat listing is much more limited in services they provide. In fact they will never even set foot on your property. Therefore, I would consider this service only for condos, and probably only the larger buildings where there are lots of comps and lots of sales. I do not believe real estate agents provide much value, certainly not approaching 2.5-3% commission when it comes to condos. They don't need to deal with many of the issues and complexities that single family home sales face. In my particular building, there have been constant sales, and it was pretty easy to judge what was a fair price based on these recent sales. The main things that affect price are upgrades, view, condition of unit, and square footage/parking. As such, I firmly do not believe that a full service realtor would have gotten me more money. OahuRE has this flat fee listing thing fairly automated. The Broker In Charge, Bryn, will answer if need be, but usually you are dealing with his team. For every step of the way they have advise documents to help. YOU NEED TO BE WILLING TO DO A LOT OF STUFF ON YOUR OWN. Many things are common sense. Do a really good job cleaning, or pay someone to do it; Fix everything that is broken; etc. Nobody is really going to be here to hold your hand with this flat rate service. If your place shows poorly don't expect someone to buy it. OahuRE highly recommended professional photos, and referred me to a great photographer who charged only $175. Do not cheap out here. This was sage advise. I'm in a trade where I know a lot of realtors. Out of 5 showings I knew 3 of the realtors, so I might have had an easier time than most because of this. I simply communicated directly with the buyer's agent which isn't really something that is recommended nor something realtors are supposed to do. I don't think it would have made much of a difference to the sale, but it sped a lot of things up as there was a lot of back and forth. In the end, I didn't get my listing price, but I knew I probably wouldn't get that. You need to list at a reasonable number and be willing to negotiate a little in a tough seller market. However, I did save about $14k in seller agent commissions so the extra work was definitely worth it. Before considering a flat rate listing, you really need to think about if you are up for the extra work and if you have the skill set to do a lot of the work that the seller's agent would ordinarily do. Some people definitely do not want the hassle. But $14k is $14k and I felt it was worth it. One thing I really wish I had the foresight to negotiate out of the sales contract was the termite inspection which cost over $600. Absolutely ludicrous for a concrete and steel building. What a scam. I would use Bryn at OahuRE in the future.

A longtime user of its website, I chose OahuRE's full-service representation in April 2026 to sell…read moremy hotel condominium in central Waikiki. On April 2, we signed the listing agreement; my asking price was not disputed by my agent, W, nor by OahuRE's broker, B. On April 3, I saw a $130,500 price increase on the listing. My asking price appeared as the new price, with a fictitious lower price as the previous price. This error also linked to my 2010 purchase record. No prompt response came to my urgent email. That evening, C, who made the error, emailed me saying she had been unwell. On April 6, at B's direction, C requested a correction through the MLS; because the price and status changes occurred together, the historical record could not be changed. A correction note was added to my listing, but an inaccurate, damaging record remained in the MLS history. On April 8, while I was still distressed, C mistakenly emailed me another client's escrow initial deposit receipt. I immediately reported it to B, who replied that such incidents were rare and the information was not highly confidential, so it was not a major concern. Beyond confidentiality, my concern was for the adequacy of OahuRE's systems and supervision for handling client information. On April 17, only about two weeks after the listing began, B proposed reducing the asking price, which was determined by the property's view, floor level, renovations, hotel rental income, and the building's recent major renovation. B had ample opportunity to object before signing the listing agreement. I felt that quickly lowering the price of a property whose MLS history already showed a fictitious $130,500 increase would further damage its image. More importantly, my confidence in their management, and motivation to sell were lost, so I declined the reduction. On August 2, after giving viewers a chance to read the correction notice, I requested termination of the listing. (As the property generates hotel income, I was not under pressure to sell.) On August 3, without prior notice, B emailed me that he blocked my property on OahuRE.com, saying I was free to relist elsewhere, but suggesting the same price would probably produce the same result. Seemingly inconsistent with his established commitment to data transparency, I felt it implied blaming the termination on my pricing decision. I was deeply disappointed by this treatment. Now, my record remains uncorrected. MLS suggested I add a note of explanation to the "Agent Remarks" section. On August 19, I asked OahuRE to add the note but was told OahuRE could not edit a canceled listing. So, they had to ask MLS to add it. When C prepared the correction draft, she astonishingly entered the amount with one digit was missing. At the limit of my patience, I focused solely on keeping my emotions under control and having only necessary, accurate edits made in a calm, matter-of-fact manner. On August 20, the MLS approved the final correction; I was finally relieved. I intend to remember the lessons learned from this experience and avoid repeating the same mistakes. I learned how much it weighs to lose trust in someone. On September 2, as if the day (also the 2nd) were symbolic of closure, I decided to leave this record and take a hint to keep the lessons I learned from this bitter experience close to my heart and carry them forward into the rest of my life. If this record someday helps someone, I can feel my tears of frustration were not shed in vain. That is my answer to ensure my suffering over141 days does not fade away, but remains a meaningful experience.
