About Kendra Powell

Whether buying or selling, I bring excellence to the experience. Aloha, I am Kendra Powell. I would like to say Mahalo for working with me to find your new home. As your Realtor, I will strive to exceed your expectations, utilizing the latest in state of the art technology while focusing on personal service that is second to none. Upon arrival to the Big Island, I obtained my Realtors license and spent the first 8 years working with and learning from an amazing company. But, as an entrepreneur my entire life, I could not remain in the employ of another for too long. So, my husband and I decided it was time to create our own company, Hawaii Estates where we work with clients both locally, nationally and internationally. I am proud to say that over our first two years in business, Hawaii Estates sold over 28 million dollars of Real Estate for our very satisfied clients. At Hawaii Estates, we place the utmost value on reputation and ethical behavior. As such my husband Chairs the Professional Standards Committee for the local Realtors Association and I sit on the Grievance Committee. Our commitment to honesty and disclosure is second to none. So, whether you are looking to purchase your first home in Hawaii, a retirement home, an investment property or sell your Hawaii property, our goal is to help you achieve your goals. Let our years of experience and knowledge be your guide. More about my pre-Hawaii life...after graduating from college at the University of Houston with a Fine Arts Degree, I began investing in Real Estate in the Houston area. I negotiated over 100 personal transactions in about 10 years. I have experience with all types of properties, including single family and multifamily homes, townhomes and condominiums. I learned firsthand how to renovate and remodel these properties, doing much of the work myself. During this time, I met and eventually married my husband. We combined our talents and companies; and for the next 10 years, we ran our construction and remodeling company together. We also opened a natural gas standby generator sales, installation and service company. In our hearts, however, we were feeling that our time in Houston was ending and that we needed to move our growing family to Hawaii. So, we closed our construction company, sold our remaining property and made the move to the Big Island. I decided that Real Estate would be an ideal fit as I had so much experience with buying and selling property already. With extensive knowledge of negotiating contracts, buyer and seller needs, relationship management and customer service, I firmly believe my past experience gives me valuable insight into the needs of both Buyers and Sellers and taught me the traits, ethics and skills necessary to be a great Realtor. In my spare time, I love to hike, swim, do yoga and generally be active. I volunteer for various charity events through the West Hawaii Realtor's Association and spend as much time with my family enjoying all that Hawaii has to offer. With warmest Aloha, Kendra

Kendra is a top notch realtor. She was professional, informative, patiently answered endless questions, and was with us all the way through the difficult process of finding and purchasing a condo here in Kona. She literally held our hands; guiding us, reminding us of things we may have overlooked. She was extremely attentive and responsive almost instantaneously to our needs and questions. She found us exactly what we needed within our limited budget and we are very appreciative. I wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend her to others.

Kendra Powell is the absolutely BEST agent in all the islands to help you buy your dream home! I've owned over 10 homes on the mainland and have had many experiences working with agents and I can proudly say she has had made the experience the BEST! She is the ultimate professional!!! My husband and I would get text messages at 7:00 or 8:00 am Pacific time so she was up at 4:00-5:00 am Hawaiian Time. I don't think she ever sleeps! We purchased a property with land, lots of cacao trees, and several buildings including two homes on the property so there was a lot of information and details to go through. She was a stickler for detail and helped "saved our bacon" so many times that could of been a deal breaker! We had interviewed other agents and there was no comparison after we met Kendra. She was so patient with us also and our property we purchased was very complicated and we also had some challenges waiting for our 1031 to be completed. The BEST part of Kendra besides her wit and funny personality, was LISTENING to what we wanted. It can be difficult to bring the spouses together as to make sure all their boxes are checked, BUT she made that happen with her magic, her knowledge of all the different areas, her knowledge and respect of Hawaiian Culture, respect for 'Aina and her professionalism in all areas with contracts and Big Island real estate laws. It can be very challenging but she cuts through all processes for you! If you want a truly amazing experience use Kendra Powell! BEST AGENT EVER! My husband and I truly feel she is now Ohana! Mahalo! We are so grateful for her! If you want her to help you sell your home or property, buy your home, condo or land...she is your person! The one and only person!

Doug was my agent in the recent purchase of PARIDISE on the Big Island. As a former real estate agent, I wanted to express my appreciation and gratitude for Doug (and his wife Kendra) and how they went above and beyond in every aspect of the transaction. There are so many things Doug did on my behalf and his responses were basically immediate throughout the entire process. He is a passionate, informed RE agent who is very involved in local Real Estate and the community. Also a wealth of information for services and local business. A great resource I was lucky to find. He is not going to aEURoesellaEUR? you, rather inform you and help you to make the best, informed decision in your investment. He was at all times honest and direct and if he doesn't have an answer, he will either find it or tell you the resources you need. Whether your buying or selling, his family owned agency is more than a good choice! Mahalo for everything you did Hawaii Estates. You definitely went out of your way to help me make my dreams come true!

Working with Kendra was the best experience Ive ever had working with a realtor. She was knowledgeable, courteous, professional, and very prompt in completing all the tasks required to close on our new home. Throughout the process, she was very focused on our best interests and needs. She even followed up with us after closing to make sure we were comfortably settled in. I will definitely be recommending Kendra to any friends or family needing a realtor.
