Testimonials

Kendra powell is the absolutely best agent in all the islands to help you buy your dream home! I've owned over 10 homes on the mainland and have had many experiences working with agents and I can proudly say she has had made the experience the best! She is the ultimate professional! My husband and I would get text messages at 7:00 or 8:00 am pacific time so she was up at 4:00-5:00 am hawaiian time. I don't think she ever sleeps! We purchased a property with land, lots of cacao trees, and several buildings including two homes on the property so there was a lot of information and details to go through. She was a stickler for detail and helped "Saved our bacon" so many times that could of been a deal breaker! We had interviewed other agents and there was no comparison after we met kendra. She was so patient with us also and our property we purchased was very complicated and we also had some…

I've owned over 10 homes on the mainland and have had many experiences working with agents and I can proudly say she has had made the experience the best! She is the ultimate professional! My husband and I would get text messages at 7:00 or 8:00 am pacific time so she was up at 4:00-5:00 am hawaiian time. I don't think she ever sleeps! We purchased a property with land, lots of cacao trees, and several buildings including two homes on the property so there was a lot of information and details to go through. She was a stickler for detail and helped "Saved our bacon" so many times that could of been a deal breaker! We had interviewed other agents and there was no comparison after we met kendra. She was so patient with us also and our property we purchased was very complicated and we also had some challenges waiting for our 1031 to be completed. The best part of kendra besides her wit and funny personality, was listening to what we wanted. It can be difficult to bring the spouses together as to make sure all their boxes are checked, but she made that happen with her magic, her knowledge of all the different areas, her knowledge and respect of hawaiian culture, respect for 'aina and her professionalism in all areas with contracts and big island real estate laws. It can be very challenging but she cuts through all processes for you! If you want a truly amazing experience use kendra powell! Best agent ever! My husband and I truly feel she is now ohana! Mahalo! We are so grateful for her! If you want her to help you sell your home or property, buy your home, condo or land she is your person! The one and only person!

We tried several real estate agents on the big island before we found kendra. She stood out as most capable, knowledgeable, and effective agent. She was always easy to reach and responsive, she told us straight, and we always felt like we could trust her knowledge and professionalism. She represented us well in price negotiations, gave us excellent advice, and facilitated the complete property acquisition transaction in all aspects. She was also a tremendous resource for inspectors and other professionals, and somehow managed to get the local government agency to finalize a well drilling permit that the seller had neglected to close out some years previous (without which we would not have been legally able to use water from the well). Kendra's sense of humor and equanimity were also a very welcome aspect of our interactions with her. We felt like she had our best interest first and forem…

Kendra's sense of humor and equanimity were also a very welcome aspect of our interactions with her. We felt like she had our best interest first and foremost at all times. She advocated for us very effectively in negotiations, and made the property purchasing process enjoyable. Even when complications arose (as they always will) we never had to worry because she was right on top of things, and made the deal happen that satisfied everyone. We are very pleased.

Doug was my agent in the recent purchase of paradise on the big island. As a former real estate agent, I wanted to express my appreciation and gratitude for doug (and his wife kendra) and how they went above and beyond in every aspect of the transaction. There are so many things doug did on my behalf and his responses were basically immediate throughout the entire process. He is a passionate, informed re agent who is very involved in local real estate and the community. Also a wealth of information for services and local business. A great resource I was lucky to find. He is not going to “sell” you, rather inform you and help you to make the best, informed decision in your investment. He was at all times honest and direct and if he doesn't have an answer, he will either find it or tell you the resources you need. Whether you're buying or selling, his family owned agency is more than a goo…
