In 1995 when Lynn and I left Washington Place, Bill Boyle was there for us to buy our house in Nuuanu. In 2010 fifteen years later when we decided to sell our home, Billy was there for us in a big way and still 100% committed to us and the whole real estate process...Kudos to Billy and all he has done for us!

Libby and Liane went far beyond the call of duty in every aspect of the process. They worked hard to find the best place for us and had expert advice. However busy they were, they always had time for our questions. Buying a property long-distance is a scary thing, and you need an agent you can trust. We absolutely had that with Libby and Liane. Perhaps the most helpful thing they've done is helping us after the sale with finding service people, a painter, etc. to get the place ready.

I've known Bill Boyle every since I moved to Hawaii, ten years ago and have worked closely with him on the development of Keahole Heights on the Big Island. He is the only one I will trust with my Real Estate transactions.

Shari took a very personal approach in helping us sell and buy a new home. She knew each legal step to protect the transaction. I was very happy with her personal touch of flowers and decorations to help sell our house. In buying the new house, she was the perfect go-between the seller and us, always finding a solution to a problem. By helping us move in early, it made the move so much easier! Thank you!

Cindy is a star! She continues to keep us appraised of whats happening in Kailua. She goes way above and beyond the call of duty - Best agent I've ever worked with!
Awakuni
Marilou was friendly, exceedingly helpful, patient, prompt and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a reliable Realtor. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she did her job in a top notch way. She is the best Realtor I have ever worked with and I will use her again if I ever need another real estate purchase or advice. She is a gem!

I am writing this letter that is years overdue. I want to thank you for your persistence over the last ten years. Over ten years ago you approached me about a beachfront property that you thought would be a wonderful investment. I declined the property. History proved you correct. A few property listings and five years later, you approached me again about another beachfront property. My wife and I purchased that property. It turned out to be last affordable beachfront property in Kailua, just like you said. As you know, we are now building are dream home. I want to thank you for your honest style. I have been told by other high profile realtors that I could not afford certain properties over the years, although they knew nothing of my financial situation. I have also seen the disgusting pandering of realtors who side with beachside activists. These realtors have testified that all beachside accesses should be open, yet many have made fortunes selling homes on private beachside lanes. You have been nothing but forthright and honest over the years. Thanks for our home and being a friend.
Aloha.

Liane went above and beyond in her dealings with my family. This was not an easy sell and she ensured the house was ready and kept me updated on problems and helped with the solutions. She was so knowledgeable and it was easy to trust her.
Collins
Joel was always in touch whether he was in town or not, every call was returned promptly, and if he said he would attend to a detail, he always did. He dispersed advice when asked and never let us down. I would recommend him anytime.
Courtney
Patricia was extremely helpful in all phases of the transaction. She has many contacts, lots of knowledge and good judgment in real estate transactions. She was very helpful when the water heater problem developed after closing.
Cresci
Kalena kept me well informed of all things pertaining to our transaction. She was trustworthy and understood our specific needs. It was a pleasure working with her.

Joel Cavasso is the best Kailua-Lanikai Broker on the Island. He is smart, hardworking, courteous and he gets the job done. He truly thinks outside the box, which is a necessary quality in this market. We closed on a high end home on Kailua Bay in September 2009 and I trust him to sell our remaining home as well.
Dave
Billy Boyle is one of the smartest,most creative,"out of the box" deal makers that I have experienced in 30 years of real estate development. He is a master at taking complex deals,that no one else has a vision for,and calculating a way to make them work! In my most resent experience, in the many years I've worked with Billy, is with a $5M luxury home that I own in Lanikai, when the Real Estate bubble burst my real estate picture became extremely complex. I have an opportunity for success today only because of Billy's perseverance and his incredable ability to access current market conditions and apply strategies for success. Thank You Billy!
David C. Hoppmann, CEO SEP Connect
Even after the closing, Russell was so kind and helpful. He assisted me with my mother's purchase and now my father's. He is a wonderful salesperson and friend.
Dumpson
Bill was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He has been professional and thoughtful, from showing us potential properties, through closing, it was an almost effortless purchase. Bill will be our representative for our next sale or purchase of a home.
Foster/Greene
I have known Bill Boyle for almost 30 years. He has handled all of my real estate transactions during that time and I have been very satisfied with his work. He is professional, very creative and keeps you informed of current developments. He is a pleasure to work with. He is currently listing another house of mine and I would not hesitate to use him again in the future. I whole heartedly recommend him to both buyers and sellers.
Gerry Jervis
Kelly did all of the work for us. All we did was sign here, here, here....and here! She gave us daily updates on what was happening (most helpful). She made herself available to us at all hours of the day. Overall, she was great and we had a very positive experience with the purchase of our first home.
Gouveia
Russell was constantly engaged in every aspect of the listing and sale. He met and exceeded all of my expectations and needs!
Harrison
I have dealt with many agents over the years and there has never been one that is nearly as good as Marie Terri. She made me feel so good about the transaction that I ended up purchasing five units!

Joel,
Jan and I are coming back later this month and were reminiscing about how lucky we were to find you and through you find our dream home on Lanikai beach. As you know, we had been coming out for years from San Francisco to find the perfect second home -- but working with other real estate agents, nothing worked. We found you and, within a single week (!), had that perfect house in contract. You are the best agent we've ever met anywhere and thanks to you we are set for life. Thanks again for all your help. It wouldn't have happened without you.
Aloha.

Erin Shaw and her wonderful family first came into our lives in 2005. Fresh out of college, Erin was doing sales and marketing for an island developer, and we became interested in her project on the island of Kaua'i. We met, we clicked and as they say, "the rest is history!" Oh, but what a history! Erin's knowledge of island real estate, and her good sense guided us through a journey that led from that initial project to successfully purchasing our home on Kaua'i at Poipu Beach 2 years ago. With the assistance of her father, Rick, (who is well known on Kaua'i as one of the foremost realtors) the Shaw family did so much more than what one would hope for from their realtors! In time our families have become friends and through this friendship Erin and her family have shared their knowledge and great love of the Hawaiian Islands and it's unique island cultures. Through Erin, my son and I had the opportunity to experience a day on the North Shore of Kaua'i at Nu'alolo Kai on the Na Pali Coast, at one of the first settlements made by the Polynesian explorers many hundreds of years ago. There we were honored to assist in the restoration of an archaeological site that had been in use from the 12th to the 20th centuries! Through Erin and her family we have discovered so many island foods, sharing restaurant tips and recipes on a regular basis. We feel so very blessed by the Shaw family friendship and aloha spirit whenever we visit, which is never enough in this busy world! If you are looking for a realtor with local knowledge, a love of the island cultures, and aloha spirit, you should look no further than Erin Shaw. Erin's warmth, intuition and knowledge will guide you also to discovering your island dream home.

I could not have been more pleased with the service I got from Patricia. She moved quickly in all aspects of the sale and displayed incredible professionalism and knowledge. We never even met in person, I was in Costa Rica the whole time, but I couldn't imagine anything going more smoothly even if I had been on the island. It is wonderful to do business with a person like Patricia, the epitome of a businesswoman.
Lubin
The most helpful thing that Cindy Nash did was attend the open houses with us. She maintained excellent contact with both myself and my husband via emails and calls. The other thing that I most appreciated was the patience Cindy took to answer all my questions and took the time to explain all her answers...even when I replied with more questions! Cindy's help with the sale and subsequent purchase of our home was indeed an invaluable service throughout a very stressful time.
M & T Silva
Joel Cavasso is an intelligent and caring Realtor that I believe represents his clients professionally. I had the pleasure of meeting and hiring Joel to complete Kailua beach front home transaction in 2006. I was very happy with his services.
Mark
Bill again went above and beyond to help me sell my house. He sat numerous open houses and helped get the house ready for them! Once we had an offer, he did everything possible to keep the sale on track. Couldn't have done it without him!

Barbara always kept in touch and returned my calls immediately. She visited with me in my office when it was more convenient for me and on at least 3 occasions brought me little gifts to celebrate special holidays. I always felt she had my best interest in mind - It was nice to know I didn't have to worry - since I was always completing my career with my company, relocating, and buying a home on Kauai. She was always available - Loved her! If I knew anyone needing assistance, I would recommend her without hesitation.
Meyer
Since we had already moved out of state, it was important to have someone that we could trust to sell our home. Shari went out of her way to make certain everything was perfect before each Brokers open, open house, and showing. We were pleased with the strong marketing that was used and the quick sale of our home. Shari made suggestions and kept us informed on everything along the way to make the home sale as smooth a transaction as possible. We would strongly recommend using her as a Realtor.
Mr. & Mrs. Hinton
Cindy moved quickly, gave us a calendar that was helpful to follow and keep on track, and convinced the seller that we were a solid buyer. It was a big success!!
Muaina
Mari Berry was there with me at all critical times. She gave great advice and was very patient.
Ostil
Barbara Pratt is one of your most valuable assets in your company, and I wanted to express how great she is to work with. She is dedicated, hardworking, and is able to craft optimism with realistic expectations, and still beat those expectations every single time. She is such a joy to work with, and I have come to feel that she is practically a part of my family. She has helped me buy properties, as well as manage them as rental units. Barbara is well-connected, and knows how to network with people and resources to help them create win-win situations for everyone. I've known her for almost 10 years, and she has always gone the extra mile for me. Despite the wonderful business relationship we have, Barbara and I have always agreed on the motto, "Family comes first."

I have worked with numerous Realtors in Hawaii as well as on the mainland. Joel Cavasso is among the best. Joel has represented me on several purchases and sales of oceanfront properties. I've been extremely happy with Joel on every level. He is diligent, tenacious and very smart. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
Tom
Shari Lyons-Grounds handled all of our arrangements so that I could make a purchase from the mainland without having to be present. Excellent and timely communication throughout the purchase process kept closing on track. Best combination of friendliness and professionalism I have ever encountered.
