Property for me is personal, I’m a hands-on investor. I had a local island friend and realtor and I always said I would want that individual to sell the property, however after getting an undesirable estimate of a listing price, I was pretty disappointed and decided not to sell. I had been receiving Christina’s postcards for a few years back and kept her postcards as inspiration and market value data. I contacted Christina (she answered the phone herself) and asked her opinion on the fly, since multifamily/commercial real estate washer specialty, and she gave me a vastly higher price range.

Property for me is personal, I’m a hands-on investor.

I had been receiving Christina’s postcards for a few years back and kept her postcards as inspiration and market value data. I contacted Christina (she answered the phone herself) and asked her opinion on the fly, since multifamily/commercial real estate washer specialty, and she gave me a vastly higher price range. I signed a contract with Christina due to her vast knowledge and experience with commercial real estate. Christina’s marketing is off the charts amazing; postcards, social media, drone footage, professional photography, etc. When the property was listed, there was so much interest, that the results were eight offers; six of them exceedingly over asking with the result of $110K over the list price and multiple backup offers. Christina was present for every showing, walkthrough, and inspection with the buyer. When you need a professional, please use someone who is an expert in their field. I gained an extra $600k + with Christina as my commercial real estate realtor. For an investor off-island, Christina is amazing at having clients in different time zones. Christina listens, she’s all business and she knows the value of time and money. She skillfully articulates to her clients, keeping them informed of each step until everything is recorded. If you and your company want top dollar for your hard-earned investment property, Christina is the top choice.

When Christina first approached me to consider selling my building, I was reluctant because I didn’t know her, and I wasn’t excited about the estimated value of my property at that time. Christina understood my position and concerns but kept in touch without pressuring me. She kept me informed about the improving market and potential replacement properties. After a couple of years, I saw the value of my property increase to a level that got me more interested in taking advantage of the market. Since our first meeting, I’ve also had time to learn more about Christina’s substantial expertise and capabilities and eventually felt comfortable and confident enough to have her represent me. Subsequently, we list…

After a couple of years, I saw the value of my property increase to a level that got me more interested in taking advantage of the market. Since our first meeting, I’ve also had time to learn more about Christina’s substantial expertise and capabilities and eventually felt comfortable and confident enough to have her represent me. Subsequently, we listed my property at a price point that I was very happy with, just to test the market. To my surprise, I started receiving interest and felt very encouraged and excited about moving forward. In a relatively short period, I received a very attractive offer and proceeded with the sale. Christina was very professional and responsive during the entire process of marketing and selling my building. She has very specialized knowledge about this multi-family market and provided sound expertise and advice. She was always sensitive to my goals and specific needs and helped me reach them.

I appreciate your congratulations on this day of “recording” that seemed to elude us despite heroic efforts by many, including yourself. It was a year-long journey with many ups and downs and some moments of despair. I thought we worked well together despite some rocky moments. My family and I appreciated your tenacity and your ability to get things done when needed. I want you to know that our entire family likes the property. It meets our current and future needs. My husband joins me in sending our thanks to you. 1031 exchange customer, represented as the seller for the relinquished property and as the buyer for the replacement property.

My family and I appreciated your tenacity and your ability to get things done when needed. I want you to know that our entire family likes the property. It meets our current and future needs. My husband joins me in sending our thanks to you. 1031 exchange customer, represented as the seller for the relinquished property and as the buyer for the replacement property. It has been a pleasure having you represent me as my agent, Christina. Your professionalism, experience, and attention to detail helped to create considerable interest in my property. I was pleasantly surprised to receive multiple offers from qualified buyers some over our asking price. Your persistence in finding a suitable replacement property allowed me to complete a 1031 Exchange. Thank you for keeping me on course with reminders of important timelines that were crucial to the exchange. I look forward to having you assist me with all future transactions. Aloha.

I am always hesitant to recommend anybody and unless I am 100% satisfied with the service I receive, I refuse to write recommendation letters. It’s fair to say that I have written letters as such, a handful of times, at best, over the 35 years of doing business as a real estate investor. Recommending Christina, however, is a no-brainer. My first meeting with Christina was arranged after I called her randomly, and rather than being ignored, she was very receptive to meeting me and advising me on real estate in Honolulu as I was completely new to the area. From the moment I met her and discussed what my needs were, I knew that I had gotten lucky. I had met The Best of the Best in the business. Christina rec…

Christina recognizes the needs of her clients immediately, which in my opinion, is the most essential part of this business. She is focused and responsive, organized and communicative, kind, and professional, and on top of that, she has a wonderful personality. I can honestly say that I hit the jackpot when I met her, and she is the main reason I will continue investing in Honolulu.

As a first-time investor, I was very apprehensive as to how the process of acquiring a real estate property would go, but working with Christina made everything seamless and easy. What I value most about Christina is threefold. Firstly, I appreciated that Christina was always there throughout every step of the entire process. From viewing open houses to finally signing closing documents, she was always there in person to assist me and answer any of my questions. Secondly, I liked that Christina handled all correspondence with the seller for me. Especially when it came to a Purchase and Sale Agreement, she was firm in negotiating all of my requests.

Finally, Christina works in an incredibly expedient manner, which was pivotal in acquiring a property in Hawaii’s fast-paced market. She would allow me to walk through properties within just hours of me expressing interest in them and she also took care of all of my requests and concerns the very moment they came up. I highly recommend Christina to anyone looking to invest in Hawaii real estate.
