Shari is a fabulous agent. Not only does she know the market, she is an expert in creative ways to market, sell, and buy homes for her clients. She is patient and takes the time to get to know her clients to help find the perfect home for them. She also can see beyond the home and has the vision for improvements to make the house the perfect home for her clients. Mahalo Shari!

This was my first time selling a house and Shari was there every step of the way! Her staging was amazing and really spruced up the property. She was extremely thorough in explaining all documents and responded to my questions in a timely manner. She remained flexible with my schedule and met all the time lines. Highly recommend.

She knows the whole island's real estate, she's familiar with all the loan types, has creative ideas for properties, and more expert knowledge. I worked with Shari for the purchase of my property in 2016, an attempted sale in 2018 and a successful sale in 2021. Shari facilitated this whole experience from cradle to grave. I bought the place site unseen from the mainland as Shari went and visited dozens of properties for me giving me advice about location, a house smelled like dog (can't smell that from Zillow) and all sorts of considerations for location and property type. Beyond the initial purchase service she sold my property yet again while I was not on island. She moved out my tenants, removed debris, coordinated the clean, maintenance, inspections, walk throughs, took her own photos and so much more for this sale. She is an absolute rockstar and personally facilitated every facet of this massively important sale.

Shari is a phenomenal realtor and I recommend to any out there, military or not, to contact her for assistance! Incredibly helpful with the process, expert knowledge of the market and Oahu neighborhoods, and great responsiveness. Her and her staff pride themselves on working for you, and it truly shows. Highly recommend!

I am sitting here reflecting on everything now that we have closed and I am in disbelief we actually found a home, closed on it and will be able to move in on the exact day that my temporary quarters benefits run out! All of this despite moving across an ocean during COVID! Without Shari and all of her support team: Joe, Angelica, Crissy, Kemen, etc. none of this would have been possible. It is a miracle it all worked out. We now own a lovely townhouse on Oahu. Thank you, Shari!!And without her helping us based on her relationship with a neighboring family, we would not have had a place to stay during this in between time the past two months. Shari is AMAZING! She will go above and beyond to help you and your family with your real estate needs. She is professional, thorough, trustworthy and kind. She also help us negotiate a fair price that took into account the work that needed to be done on the home. We are so blessed to have her in our lives. Thank you from the bottom of my ??, Shari!!! Everyone should know how great she is!

Shari was fantastic to work with! She was super responsive, very knowledgeable about the area, and worked tirelessly to help us close on our dream home, which required additional effort and interactions with the listing agent and loan officer to get us through VA condo approval during this unprecedented COVID-19 environment. She is also very kind and personable so we really enjoyed getting to know her and expect we will be friends and neighbors for years to come. We had an amazing experience with her and would highly recommend her for your Oahu real estate needs!

5 Stars are not enough!Shari was assigned to help me and my family. We definitely could not have been any luckier. We started talking business just weeks before I was about to end my deployment in which case, I was able to stop over in Hawaii for about a week. She immediately went to work upon assignment sending me tons of prospects. Furthermore, she helped eliminate ones I brought to the table ensuring we did not waste any valuable time and effort.Once we had a list, she was ready to meet with me immediately. I landed on island during the weekend but she guaranteed me time throughout the following days and shifted her schedule around to meet my needs. We looked intensively at openings and scouring the areas for listings that may have not been up just yet and brand new. Even after spending all day searching and driving from city-city/town-town, Id sometimes want to go back to certain listings to try and narrow down the selection. She had no problem driving out after the fact to make sure I saw everything I wanted/needed to see.We then finally locked in our sights on a house. She walked me through the entire process where I was able to place an offer on a home the day I left. The entire beginning of the process was so seamless that the same night I arrived back home from deployment, my wife and I were delighted with amazing news that our offer was accepted!Since then to closing she was with us every step of the way even though we were divided by thousands of miles of open water. A three-hour time difference may not seem so bad but when we are the ones ahead and ready to get going early in the mornings and all that it entails with home-buying, she was quick to respond even though she should still be asleep.We could write more but it wouldnt do Shari any justice as to how painless and easy she made everything for us. Because of her amazing skillset in the market and care for the clients, we achieved something we thought wouldnt be a possibility. First time homeowners in our mid-20s and what better location than Hawaii of all places to make it a reality. Could not have done it without her!

Shari was immensely helpful in our purchase of our home. At no point did we feel like we were anything but a priority to her. Her knowledge and experience of the housing market on the island is next to none and gave us all the confidence we needed to purchase a home. We recommend Shari to all of our friends looking to buy or sell on Oahu!
