Mike did a great job helping us find a home. He understood what we were looking for and answered our many questions throughout the process. Mike aided us in navigating through some difficult issues and went above and beyond. He has great communication and follow up skills, and we would wholeheartedly recommend him!

During a vacation in August 2021, my wife and I decided to relocate to the Big Island. We started out with zero contacts, and I decided to give Mike a call based on his positive online reviews. He did not disappoint. From the start, Mike stayed on top of things for us, even arranging a showing on short notice the day before we had to fly back. Mike was out of the state at the time, but he still responded quickly and had one of his associates start helping us right away. He encouraged us through some initial disappointments and tried to anticipate problems throughout the process, contacting us right away with any signs of trouble. We felt that Mike was honest and unbiased in setting expectations and helping us find properties that suited our needs. With his help, we ended up with a great house and completed our move in slightly over 3 months despite a difficult real estate market. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a place on the Big Island!

We were searching for our first vacation rental and reached out to several agents on the Big Island. Mike was one of the first to respond and immediately we knew he would represent us well. He had great advice, knowledge of the area and current market trends that proved valuable when making offers in this market. The Condo we purchased was 100% exactly what we were looking for and we actually never set foot in it until after the closing. Mike viewed and created a entertaining/detailed walk through of the condo for us to view. Honestly had we been there in person I would have been distracted by things and the video was perfect for remembering the details. He also worked closely with my husband to go see properties as soon as they became available. Being the first to view, guidance on making an offer and his commitment to us was what secured this property. We are so happy with our purchase!!! Mahalo Nui Loa Mike!

I cannot speak highly enough of Mike. In each home that we looked at he pointed out many things, good & bad, that I would not have noticed or considered. His knowledge of the area is off the charts...giving me the history of each neighborhood and even explaining the pros and cons of the trees! As an inexperienced home buyer I was looking for a realtor with lots of experience and Mike delivered in all ways, providing sound advice and answering my many questions. He has lived in Hawaii for over 20 years so he is extremely knowledgeable about the island, but also is very invested in the community. I highly recommend Mike!

Mike Drutar is simply the best! We met Mike through friends and he has met our every need. He has helped us over the past 2 years find our second home on the Big Island. Mike's knowledge of the real estate market and nuances of the various communities in Mauna Lani Resort were unparalleled. He was always patient with us and knew exactly what we wanted. Despite living on the mainland, he kept in touch with us regularly and we were ready when the right home became available. We could not have done it without Mike and he helped make our Hawaii dream come true!!

Mike is a great real estate agent because he helped me understand the market, including which areas and property types are selling and renting, find comparable properties, really knew the local neighborhoods here on Hawaii Island and was very responsive to emails, texts and phone calls. Very knowledgeable about the process and helped ensure a smooth one by letting me know what to expect when, sent respectful reminders when I needed to do something and made very effective use of modern technology like property searchnotifications and electronic signature technology. Great guy to work with, will keep in touch for future properties and highly recommend him to anyone wanting to buy or sell a property.

Working with Mike on our home purchase has been a real pleasure. Ive bought and sold real estate all over the U.S. and have never worked with an agent who has anywhere near the in depth knowledge of the local market as Mike does. This is especially important an area as unique as Kona. Our home search took about a year and Mikes patience, guidance and responsiveness throughout the process was superb. I highly recommend Mike to anybody looking to buy or sell a home in Kona.
