WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

She is great! She has the best disposition and attitude. She knows everything. She really tries to make everything easy. She is helpful and effective. I’m really glad we could work with her.

— Monica S.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

Malia’s professional website and national reputation sold our home. We were most impressed with her proactive approach to marketing and networking. Our out-of-state buyers wrote an offer, sight unseen, based on her excellent website. They were not disappointed when they first saw the property two weeks later. Malia and her team, Alex and Ilse, were tireless in communicating with all parties. Malia knows how to navigate to a successful close.

— Nina & Luke O.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

From our first conversation with Malia, we knew that we had found the perfect agent for our search. Malia's extensive knowledge of the area enabled us to look at many great properties in a few days and identify the perfect place for us. She guided us through every step of the process, made great recommendations, stood in for us when we couldn't be there since we were out-of-state, and even helped us solve some issues post-closing with the seller. To icing on the cake is that we so enjoyed the time we spent with her searching for homes and finalizing the process.

— Valerie A.
