Had a great upfront experience and conversation with Gill Mara about a few of the rental property…read morelistings posted by RedFin. Overall he was courteous and incredibly responsive via email and online inquiry. A few of the rental properties weren't available for immediate showing, which I understand, but Gill did a great job at scheduling me for the earliest dates and times. Unfortunately, things quickly turned when Gill began asking for a (maybe refundable) deposit prior to the official showing date. A rather large deposit amount may I add. I just didn't like feeling pressured into putting money into a rental property that I hadn't seen or experienced yet. Ended up withdrawing my interest due to the pressure.

Russ Trinidad is excellent, trustworthy, dependable, and honest. He is the perfect type of real…read moreestate professional you want handling one of the most important and expensive decisions in your life -- where you will live. I am very picky with my housing needs, as a military officer experienced with multiple moves, homes owned, and homes rented (as renter and landlord). Last summer when I had to sell my Waikele house that I rented out for over 20 years, I chose Russ to represent me, instead of the outstanding real estate company that managed this rental house (this company represented me when I initially purchased this house over 20 years ago). I needed an extra special real estate professional, as I was expecting a difficult sale in late 2022. The tenant unexpectedly passed away, the Hawaii housing market crashed, mortgage rates hit historic highs, and the house was in need of major renovations. After interviewing several highly recommended real estate professionals, including those that UpNest arranged for me, I discovered Russ. It was only after extensive interviews that I discovered what a hidden gem Russ was. The low number of customer reviews on the various real estate websites do not do Russ justice. The result? As I live on the mainland and had not returned to Hawaii for 15 years, I had to rely on Russ to handle 100% of my house renovation and house sale in Hawaii. Russ handled $100K of upgrades to the entire house -- from new roof to new everything inside. He even offered his own personal muscle power to deal with an unexpected plumbing issue that was easy enough for him to handle, instead of paying the contractors additional money to modify the work order that I already paid for. Despite the challenging market, Russ successfully sold the house shortly after opening for almost 7 figures -- much more than I expected. Critical to the sale was all of the sales strategy development, planning, and execution needed to achieve a sales win in a challenging real estate market. Though I am extremely picky, Russ continually earned my trust with his constant updates, immediate solutions to arising issues, and sound judgment, that I deferred most of the decisions to Russ the deeper we got into the renovations. I would have posted this much much sooner after the sale, if it had not been for other personal issues I had to deal with first. Hopefully this depth of this review can get across what an incredible real estate professional that Russ is. And what a good man he is -- somebody that I would absolutely vouch for and recommend to friends and family to handle your real estate needs.

Working with Daniel and Cari Anne was an excellent experience. I was referred to them from one of…read moremy realtor friends who doesn't operate on Oahu, which was a shame in one sense because I love working with my friend, but I gained a team with these two and Taniguchi & Associates that was more than exemplary.  The wife and I toured a bunch of places the day we spent on island with Daniel and Cari Anne, they set up our showings in an order that made sense to flow with our schedules and traffic and while we did put bids on some of the places we saw in-person, ultimately, we ended up buying a unit that they did a video tour with us while we were back home in Kona. We were 100% confident after having seen places in-person with them that they knew exactly what we were looking for and when the perfect place went up for sale, I didn't feel the need to grab a flight as it would only delay the process. Also, while some realtors prefer if you use "their lender" Daniel never even brought this up as I've been using the same guy for over a decade and even he mentioned that Daniel was super easy to work with, very responsive and would love to do business with him in the future, which mirrors my experience. Daniel also has solid relationships with other realtors on island, but when it came to negotiating (the initial offer, the counter, the post inspection, everything), he was a true professional and did not let any personal friendships interfere with getting us some big wins, this guy knows what he is doing. No doubt, when the time comes, I know who I am going with, Daniel, Cari Anne, Taniguchi & Associates.

Erik resolved the various negotiation issues completely in our favor and closed the sale quickly with a full cash offer. We were completely satisfied with everyone in his office. We highly recommend Erik Taniguchi and his staff.

Time and time again, Associa Hawaii never disappoints in being a mismanaged company. I agree with…read morethe Yelp reviews. Since we moved to Honolulu, when I call about issues, I rarely get a call back. I have to keep on calling until I get an answer. When I do get someone, that person sounds lost. Getting customer service is like pulling teeth. Why hire someone for "Customer Service Supervisor" when that person does not know how to handle customer service at all? When I contact the office, I usually get an attitude (it sounds more like a reprimand) about getting the annual coupons. The positive point lies in their responding to emails. Albeit the staff responds slowly. However, within the past year, Associa started to hire some people who did care enough to respond quicker. I give that person a star. But other than that...

I provided the information, and she gave me the name of someone who had already been copied on previous emails but had never responded. I then asked who I could contact above that person. The receptionist told me there was no one above her. I replied that this could not be the case, as she is clearly not the president of the company and must report to someone. At that point, the receptionist told me, "I am not here to listen to your grievances." When I attempted to clarify that I simply needed the name of the appropriate person to contact, she interrupted me, said she had another call to answer, and placed me on hold. I told her that I was not trying to share my grievance with her--I only needed the correct name. She then hung up on me. When I called back and waited on hold again, she answered. I asked for her name, and she responded only with, "How may I direct your call?" When I repeated my request for her name, she hung up on me a second time. I find it unbelievable that a company of this size provides such poor customer service and continues to operate this way. Homeowners pay substantial management fees and should not be treated with this level of disrespect.
