We had a, "by the skin of our teeth" situation and I cannot emphasize enough how…read moregrateful we are for the amount of work and patience Daniel Relyea & Mimi Suemura did for us! They made us feel confident even though the wheels turning behind the scenes were sketchy regarding us qualifying and getting the deal done. So many little annoying details! We refinanced but also had to pay off a 6 figure heloc AND have a pretty big cash-out chunk in order to buy out a family member so to become the sole owners of our home of 28 years. Submitted everything to 1st lender thinking all T's were crossed and all I's were dotted, yet got a big fat no. Same with 2nd. 3rd lender, and Wa-La! 3x's a charm! Hopes and dreams CAN come true with consistent and persistent hard work AND quality help from an excellent team like the folks we found here at Hawaii Mortgage Experts! Use these guys, you'll be happy.

They are fantastic and I've been blown away with their attention to detail and their focus on their client. I'm originally from Hawaii but now live in California and wanted to get a property in Hawaii that had that vacation/ resort vibe. In September 2025 when I was visiting family, I met with them to help me find the property in Hawaii. They took down my wants, needs and non-negotiables. I was back on island in October and they had scheduled 2 - 3 days of back to back viewings of property. One day, we had 8 - 10 property visits and another day, the same amount. On the last day, we revisited the couple of properties that were on the top of my list. Slayde, the agent responsible for helping buyers find the right property was fantastic. He had everything lined up and the visits were like clockwork. We found the perfect property so we all got on a call to talk about the strategy on what to offer, how to negotiate it, etc. We made the initial offer and received a counter. We discussed how to approach the counter and came up with our counter which was accepted. We saved tens of thousands from the initial ask. Part of the process that they did which blew me away was the detailed walk through of all of the legal documents. Sherrie, their financial and legal whiz walked through each portion of the contract, explained it in plain language and made it feel very comfortable...end of the day, we knew what we were signing and Sherrie guided us through the process. Once we signed the contract, another person, Grace on their team took over. She handled everything from documents, inspections, repairs, etc. She was fantastic and I couldn't have been happier! While I was home in California, she utilized FaceTime, videos and pictures to help me get a clear idea of what's going on. Doing things remotely, especially purchasing a property is hard but Grace made it very, very comfortable. We have closed on our perfect Hawaiian getaway property. We couldn't have done it without Slayde, Sherrie, Grace, Myron and the Kiriu Sasaki Realty team. Also, the Kiriu Sasaki team also helped my cousin sell his condo as well as help my sister sell her property years ago. You could say that we are repeat customers. Thank you for getting us into our dream property!!!

This review is for Glenn Nishihara and his boss. Glenn was the seller's agent for the home I…read morepurchased last year. He was totally unprofessional and cocky. He went on a Vegas vacation while we were in escrow and didn't answer my realtor's phone calls or emails. He missed a bunch of deadlines and never communicated with the seller. In fact, we even walked in on the seller watching TV because he failed to inform her of a home inspection. The only reason the sale went through was because my realtor kept pushing and pushing, doing twice as much work as needed. The seller was often confused about what to do, so she would ask my realtor. My realtor would try to help her out, but it was difficult for her to do so while avoiding any risk of conflict of interest. In fact, when Glenn returned from vacation, he began yelling at my realtor and accusing her of unethical behavior. He even threatened her, and told her he would report her. My realtor was perplexed and upset. When she tried contacting Glenn's boss to help resolve the issue, Glenn's boss just blew her off and essentially told her to figure it out herself. The realtor's deal they made regarding roof repairs fell through. He didn't uphold his end of the deal which cost me $5,000. During closing, we made a side deal for the home alarm system that was already pre-paid. There was confusion regarding transfer of the alarm system title and the alarm company chose to terminate the pre-paid contract, reimbursing the seller. I requested to be reimbursed, in turn. However, as expected, Glenn ignored my realtor's phone calls and emails. I hope no one else has to ever deal with this unprofessional realtor. Coldwell Banker is dumb if they keep him on payroll. He is probably costing them more money than he brings in. The douchebag still owes me $96.

If I could give zero stars, I would…read more To be fully transparent, I have never met Michelle Zheng (RA) Realtor Associate RS-82379. This review is based solely on my direct communication experience with her regarding questions about a property of interest. Unfortunately, the communication was extremely disappointing. I reached out with specific, reasonable questions about a home and was met with little to no follow-up. Messages were either unanswered or responded to in a way that did not address the actual questions being asked. As an individual with vested interest seeking clarity before making any financial decision, timely and professional communication is essential. I understand that real estate professionals are busy, and delays can happen. However, consistent lack of responsiveness creates unnecessary frustration and makes it difficult to move forward confidently. Clear, proactive communication is a fundamental part of client service in this industry. Again, this review reflects only my personal experience with communication. Others may have had different experiences. However, based on my interaction, I would encourage potential clients to carefully consider how important responsiveness and thorough communication are to them when selecting representation. If that is what you are seeking, then this would not be the best fit.

The property we were interested we did not see in person but we were too far away so it was impossible. Estates Royal was very honest, upfront and directed us on researching the area as well. When we arrived to the island they greeted us at the property even though it was a holiday. We were very content with our unit and they run a tight ship. I like the fact they have rules for a reason, they treat everyone fairly and I spoke to 3-4 people in the office and I was always greeted with friendly and kind interactions. We were very blessed to have come across Estates Royal and I hope the landlords that use them realize how lucky they are to have such great people working for them on their behalf.
