U.S. Pacific Command GCCS-J Information System Security Manager
Thank God for Lynn Hann! If you're reading this then you are in luck. I know how difficult it is to find a realtor in Hawaii that you can rely on; I mean really rely on. I'm 37, and it is only because of Lynn that I'm sitting here now, in my $1Million Dollar dream house, up in Ahuimanu Hills, Kaneohe typing up this recommendation. Lynn's strategic approach and analytical acumen literally saved me tens of thousands of dollars, and created profits for me across the sell of both my Mililani condo and townhouse, which I then, in turn, used, coupled with her services, to close on my new SFH. There are many realtors in Hawaii but not very many that actually spend the time to really listen to their clients. Lynn is absolute professional and has a unique talent for helping people. When challenges came up she quickly found solutions and provided solid recommendations; including viable courses of actions. I will always look back on my real estate experience with Lynn as a tremendous success and one that was rather enjoyable. Thanks again for everything Lynn!

Lynn Hann
Honolulu Firefighter
I've been a resident of Honolulu for over 30 years and never dreamed I could own property in Hawaii. After meeting with Lynn Hann, she helped me to understand that with my steady income, I COULD own a place of my very own!! Needless to say, I was thrilled and terrified all at the same time! I've rented my whole life! I didn't even know where to begin! Lynn was very easy to talk to, and answered all of my questions, no matter how trivial they seemed. And she explained the buying process thoroughly so I knew what to expect. Once we figured out what I could afford, she found numerous places for us to look at. It was SO much fun searching for my new home! Lynn asked me exactly what I wanted in a home , including what I could and couldn't live without. In just a short time, she found me the PERFECT condo! It was in the area I wanted, with the amenities I wanted, the parking I needed, and best of all, I could afford it!!! When we first entered the property, I couldn't believe my eyes! It was absolutely PERFECT!! I could barely contain my excitement! She helped me through the entire escrow process, and we closed in May of 2016. Now I'm proud to have friends over to see my beautiful condo! And my neighbors are so amazing! We have all become one big happy family! I couldn't be happier! Thanks Lynn for being so patient with me and making my first home purchase a wonderful experience! I don't expect to move for a very long time, but if I do, I will definitely hire Lynn Hann again!

Lynn Hann
Administrative assistant
I have known Lynn for close to 8 years and I can say without a doubt that she is the most giving, sincere and caring person I know. I met her as a new concierge and she regularly took the time to educate me, show me how to work the software, learn the activities and most importantly how to interact with customers. I remember her helping me out one particular time when I could not handle someone who was difficult for me and handled the situation with such style and grace that they walked away happy. She has always had an incredible sense of teamwork and warmth despite the competitive nature of the work that we did. Lynn sincerely cares about people and will do whatever it takes to ensure that their needs are met and will go above and beyond to make sure that that happens. I saw these same attributes continue when we went on to work for another company together. Because of all of these reasons I did not hesitate to refer her to a top company I know of that handles corporate relocations in Hawaii or to another friend of mine considering buying a house. I knew that Lynn would not be pushy and would always have her best interests at heart. I wholeheartedly recommend her not only for your real estate needs but as a good friend.

Keahi’s expertise and insight into the market were invaluable in helping me select just the right Honolulu condo to complete my 1031 exchange. He and his assistant Susie were very responsive and professional in all aspects of securing and closing the deal. They kept me well informed regarding the negotiations with the seller and the details of closing escrow. Even after closing, Keahi continued to advise me. I really appreciated his enthusiasm and concern for my plans to rent out the property after the close. He provided me great advice about finding good tenants, and referred me to great vendors and resources to help me prepare the property for rental.

After many conversations, and even more open houses we finally homed in on an amazing property.

I was very particular about what I wanted however that changed a great deal with each place I saw (via FT).

He has always impressed me with his tenacity. It took several years but I finally had the right situation that required his problem solving skills. He wasn't deterred by the poor condition of the property, he just rolled up his sleeves and organized a competent group of craftsman to make the property presentable and effected the sale which we closed on October 31, 2017. I think anyone represented by Keahi would be well served.
