#51 for 2021 If I…read morehad my way, I give 0 stars for not taking any action on our file to refinance our home and allowing it to sit idle for four months from September 2020 to January 2021. Loan officer, who I will not state name, mentioned to us a few times that our file is done, is out of his hands, waiting for other department to get back, but is backed up with helping people on their first mortgage and first home. It's either the team knows or don't know what they're doing and/or doesn't have their priorities straight and in order. Think first come, first serve. My husband usually communicates weekly or bi-weekly with loan officer to see if there's anything else that we need to do on our end. Nothing. We have to wait. In December 2020, I told my husband if there's no progress made in January 2021, let's go with plan B. In January 2021, we had a group phone meeting, and we agreed to stay on. After a few weeks, my intuition told me nothing will be moving forward. After having a heart to heart discussion with my husband, we decided to state our valid reasons, say goodbye to loan officer, and go with plan B. We're both hurt that loan officer is someone my husband knows and wasn't a stranger to us. Kindly send a DM if you must know who we had as our loan officer. We will not recommend any of our families and friends. We do not wish to have any further business relations with this company.

This was my first home since I've been active duty Military. From what I understand, the VA usually takes a while to process home loans. However, these guys did such an amazing job answering all my newbie questions and explaining what to do and expect next in detail. Communicating important information between 4 people who've never met each other except through Phone text/ voice and emails was flawless. I highly recommend this amazing team to anyone looking to purchase a home here in beautiful Hawaii. Very understanding and easy to work with. Thank you Chase, Duncan and Ian for all your hard work.

I recently used Brett Aka to sell our apartment and to purchase a single family home this year. I…read morewill definitely use Brett and his team in future real estate transactions and highly recommend him to family and friends. I knew Brett from when he use to work at a large CPA firm. He was extremely hard working and put in a lot of long hours into making sure he delivered a highly quality product to his clients. He also knows how to deal with high pressure situations and manage everyone's expectations. His hard working ethics has definitely carried over to his career as a real estate agent. When selling our apartment, I was very impressed by the photos and videos used in his listings. We had a relatively short deadline to sell our place that we were renting out. But Brett worked with our property manager, staged the apartment very quickly and was able to sell our place well before our required deadline. My wife and I later decided to purchase a single family house through Brett shortly after. We initially were looking for a townhouse but after looking at multiple places with Brett and his team across the island, we were very fortunate to find an affordable single family house. Even though I know Brett is extremely busy on the weekends, his definitely made time for us in his busy schedule to look at numerous places for weeks. He definitely didn't pressure us into purchasing a place unless the place seemed ideal for us. I really appreciate that Brett and his team seemed to prioritize that we found a good quality place that fitted our lifestyle rather than how some real estate agents will try to sell you something fast without really spending the time and money to make sure it's a good fit. Another good quality of Brett is that he strategizes throughout the entire selling and purchase process. He is always considering the costs and benefits throughout the process and always considering our available options. Our previous real estate agent 5 years ago never strategized on pricing when we purchased our first place. As a result of all of our strategic planning, we were able to sell our apartment at a higher price than expected and purchase our new home at a price lower than expected. We were probably fortunate to be able to get these results, but I appreciate that Brett works hard to get the best price he can. Overall, I highly recommend Brett Aka and his team (Kandace Izumi and Katherine Martines) for anyone considering selling or purchasing a place. I appreciate that they all kept in touch after the closing transaction and assisted us in coordinating any repairs/renovations of our new place. My wife and I are very pleased working with Brett and his team.

Brett and Kandace were so great in helping us sell our place and upgrade us for our growing family. They are so amazing we had to use them again for our new home.

Brett even helped asked all the right questions through our inspection. The team was there through every step and have been so supportive. We would not have been able to get through the process without them.

Nevertheless, today after receiving an open arms, welcoming introduction to the meeting in this supposed to be quick get-to-know-each-other kind of relaxed meeting, I got to meet the legendary Jodie (and Geoff). I say legendary as I was seriously perplexed in all the positive analysis developed just from quick, focused, and efficient $$$ Jodie was able to jot down and calculate. Although I already have a house, I really feel like just a peon on this chess board of life. Thats why I do not see it anywhere close to the end of my story. I am currently 33 and genuinely not a subject matter expert in anything with mortgage, Jodie was able to translate my sloppy knowledge about mortgage processes and flip it into something I can easily understand. Likewise, she also provided me with not only one view, but actually a few different visions, but again this time with the realistic and workable matching information to my actual life/scenario rather than the poor information I sourced just from google ‍. The whole reason I took a few mins to seriously sit down and write this Yelp review was to display the equal level of respect Jodie and Geoff represented. They immediately displayed advanced subject matter expertise and soaring intellectual knowledge about the whole finance mortgage obstacles, and seriously held that standard throughout the meeting and the exact way all the way through the meeting and when we all parted ways. Seriously in the 1-2 hr meeting today, I went in there confident, but afterwards, the awe-inspired vibes and reality reassurance they both provided me gave me one of the best feelings/highs I've had in a very long time. Although I just met them, without Judie or Geoff needing to ask me to recommend them to others, I would in a heart beat share the knowledge they gave me and their contacts now to anyone who needs assistance with mortgage as I want all my friends, family or just anyone I know to surround themselves with the highest levels of respect and treatment as this will lead anybody trying to provide for their family the best they truly can do and show for their hard earned money. Respect and appreciation is all over this review but again from the bottom of my heart, my family thanks and appreciate this. Thank you.

We worked closely with Jodie, Anna, Lisa, Kasie, and Jeannie throughout the entire process. They were all extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and dedicated--putting in long days and late nights to make sure everything went smoothly. While there were some stressful moments (through no fault of theirs), they guided us through every step and made sure we got exactly what we needed. We asked for so many estimates and had so many questions--and they handled it all like pros, never missing a beat. Thanks to their hard work, we were able to get to closing much faster than expected. Their attention to detail and commitment gave us complete confidence that not only would the job get done--but it would be done right. And that peace of mind means everything. I highly recommend Pacific Rim Mortgage to anyone and everyone. I would absolutely work with them again!
