Oahu Homeowner's don't make money when they sell Hawaii and Oahu real estate, they make money when they buy it!   Does this statement seem backwards to you?  Did you think that you'd only make money when you sold your Hawaii real estate?  Selling your Hawaii property results in cashing out your equity and getting your cash in hand, but it's how well you bought your Oahu home that will determine how much your proceeds will be.  Even experienced homeowner's make costly mistakes when buying and financing their Oahu home.  As aHawaii real estate broker, I specialize in helping people buy the right home at the right price...AND the right financing.  My talent is helping Buyers negotiate the best possible price on their Oahu home purchase and that includes implementing my Full Service Hawaii Buyer's program as described below.  Oahu real estate Buyers can save thousands of dollars by following the practical guidelines in my free money-saving Hawaii real estate reports and by qualifying for my Buyer's rebate program.  You can freely search the Oahu MLS database with NO signup required and view all homes for sale on Oahu that are currently listed in the Honolulu MLS.  Or, if you'd like me to personally scour Hawaii real estate listings every day and email you with new listings as they become available, just complete our Custom Home Search request form and you will begin receiving listings via email within 24 hours. Many of the new home developments on Oahu qualify for a Buyer's rebate provided that I register you on your initial visit.  I've created a webpage of Oahu's new home developments to help you focus your search on a home that meets your desires.  If you're a Buyer who is relocating to Oahu, you'll probably have many questions about the community and the schools that can be answered at these links.   If you're unsure of your financing options I can arrange to have an experienced loan officer pre-qualify you and assist you in determining your price range.  Whether you're interested in buying Honolulu real estate, a home in Kailua or any residential Oahu real estate, I can guide you through the maze of Hawaii home buying obstacles and help ease the Oahu real estate buying process.  I have a knack for making the difficult seem easy and I'd love the opportunity to help you write your own Hawaii real estate success story. I have a quartely newsletter that we send out via postal mail and if you'd be interested in receiving a copy, please email me with your name and mailing address.  I'll gladly put you on my mailing list.

My Trademark Full Service Hawaii Buyer Program

• I will represent you, as the Buyer, exclusively, unless the property is a Hawaii Metro Realty listing.  I'll even put our agreement in writing so that you can be assured that I represent your interests as a Buyer.  AND, it won't cost you a dime, because I'll be paid out of the escrow closing and from the Seller's sale
  
  

• I will negotiate the best possible deal for you so that you avoid costly traps and pitfalls.
  
  

• I am constantly viewing homes and combing through real estate listings and I can provide a prospective Buyer with a wealth of information on your targeted home search
  
  

• I'll set-up a focused search of Hawaii real estate listings through the Honolulu Multiple Listing Service and those Oahu homes that meet your personal desires will be emailed to you daily as they are listed for sale.  I also scour the newspaper ads for any For Sale By Owner properties that are willing to work with a Realtor.  And, because I am so often out looking at Oahu real estate, I can advise you of any For Sale By Owner opportunities that may not be advertised in the newspaper.  I'll preview all new available property listings daily with your personal desires in mind so that I can advise you of hidden bargains and new listings before anyone else.  You wouldn't believe the bargains I've found with this "hands-on" approach!
  
  

• I'll provide you with property research and sales statistics on comparable homes so that you can buy the most home for your dollar.
  
  

• I will simplify the buying process for you and track every detail of escrow as well as provide timely reminders to everyone involved so that nothing "falls through the cracks" and all timeline items are met according to the contract.  If and when issues do arise in the escrow process, we can assist you in a wide-variety of ways from a)  acting as buffer between you and the Seller/Seller's agent and avoid having "feathers ruffled"; to b) advising you on possible solutions to issues that only an experienced Realtor will be able to resolve.
  
  

• I'll help you locate the most affordable financing in the market and for your situation.
  
  

• I will refer you, if requested, to reputable and qualified inspectors, title and escrow officers and other service providers that you'll need.  I'll also coordinate all inspections, appraisals, escrow and title services with the very best firms so you can feel confident and focus on other important tasks .
  
  

• I'll escort you and register you at any new home developments that you may be interested in provided that the developer allows us to represent you.  Here's a link to a list of new home developments that will accommodate a Buyer's agent.
  
  

• I'll set-up viewing appointments for properties that fit your criteria and I'll be present at the showings.  You'll benefit from my experience in spotting potential trouble areas.  When viewing homes I often see things that you might not see.
  

• I'll prepare the purchase contract using Hawaii Association of Realtors thorough and well-written forms.
  
  

• I'll be right by your side every step of the way and particularly at the signing of closing documents, which can be quite overwhelming to many Buyers.  In fact, I'll review your closing statement for accuracy prior to the signing appointment so that your valuable time is not wasted waiting
  
  

• Everything you do with us stays COMPLETELY CONFIDENTIAL and I protect our client's privacy.
  
  
  There's a difference between agents who simply "sell Hawaii real estate" and those who COMMIT to whatever it takes to serve a client beyond their expectations.  I guarantee everything I do in writing and this places the burden of risk and performance on me, not you.  I also have references to reputable tax specialists, escrow and title insurance companies, attorneys and people in mortgage lending.  These are people I've used in other transactions.
