Hawaii Real Estate

"....ensuring you have all the facts...."
It’s with immense pleasure that I share my experience with Tracy, a realtor who I wholeheartedly endorse for anyone navigating the O‘ahu real estate market. From day one, communication with Tracy was refreshingly easy. He listens intently, articulates his points clearly, and ensures that every question is answered with precision.

Tracy’s expertise in the local property market is unparalleled. He has a vast network of contacts that proves invaluable in every transaction. It’s not just about having a realtor with knowledge; it’s about having one who can harness that knowledge to connect you with the right people and opportunities.

Over the course of our four-year acquaintance, Tracy has patiently worked to understand our specific needs. For my wife and me, relocating from Texas meant finding a home that wasn't just a space to live, but a place that resonated with our lifestyle and aspirations. Tracy’s approach to real estate goes beyond the transactional aspect; he has an intuitive grasp of what makes a house a home for his clients.

He has been an anchor, offering candid and practical advice. His straightforward feedback has been crucial in helping us discern the best choices for us amidst a sea of possibilities. Navigating the technicalities of real estate can be daunting, but Tracy provided us with the guidance and support needed to understand the finer points, ensuring we made well-informed decisions.

Our professional relationship with Tracy has evolved into a cherished friendship. His integrity and dedication are evident in his every action. He's a realtor who gives you the unvarnished truth, ensuring you have all the facts to make decisions that are right for you.

As our long and sometimes challenging journey to find the perfect home comes to a close, we reflect on the path we’ve traveled with gratitude. Tracy has been more than a realtor; he has been a trusted advisor, a confidant, and a friend. We’re profoundly grateful for his relentless dedication to our cause.

Mahalo, Tracy, for your exceptional service and for being an integral part of our life-changing adventure to find our dream home in the beautiful state of Hawai‘i. I highly recommend.

George was excellent to work with.  He helped us sell my dad's house. George made the entire process comfortable and worry-free.  His superior knowledgeable and patient had it easy for us.    I've used George on 3 sells so far and was never disappointed.  I definitely recommend George to anyone who is looking to sell or purchase properties in Hawaii. Exceptional realtor!

"....magician in the housing market."
I can't praise George of Hawaii Living enough! Working with him was an absolute pleasure. He's not just a realtor; he's a magician in the housing market. With his expertise and dedication, George found us the perfect investment property that checked off all our boxes. From start to finish, he guided us seamlessly through the process, leaving no stone unturned. George's knowledge of the market is unparalleled, and his network of contacts for inspections, handyman work, and property management is invaluable. Communication with George is effortless; he's always available to answer questions and provide updates with a friendly demeanor. Without a doubt, I'll be reaching out to George for future real estate endeavors, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a top-notch realtor. Thank you, George, for exceeding all expectations!

"....communicated everything well...."
Most efficient group out there when looking for a new home. Jessica, Michelle and Amber communicated everything well and helped me find my first place. Would recommend to anyone struggling to find a place anywhere on Oahu.

"....super knowledgeable...."
George was excellent to work with. He helped us find the condo unit we wanted at a good price in Waikiki which we just happily closed. George made the entire process comfortable and worry-free. He is super knowledgeable about the local real estate market. He provided us with inside knowledge about each building we saw. He answered all of our calls and texts, and was at every showing waiting for us. Since we came from out of state, George walked us through the entire purchasing process and schedules in detail. And he timely kept on with every step during the closing process. I will definitely recommend George to anyone who is looking to sell or purchase properties in Hawaii.

"....extremely responsive...."
Our experience with Hawaii Living realtor Tracy Yamato was superb!  He is conscientious, very knowledgeable, patient with our many questions, extremely responsive, and when we asked his opinion, he told us what he thought politely.  One could not have a better realtor for Oahu and Honolulu!  Bravo Tracy!

"....best realtor we've every worked with."
Tanner Botts is hands down the best realtor we've ever worked with. He quickly earned our business by clearly demonstrating that he had listened to - and understood - what we were looking for. Being spread as far as 13 hours apart (!!) during the homebuying process could have led to a great deal of frustration...but Tanner's positive attitude, lightning-quick communication, and willingness to drop everything and head to a property of interest made things surprisingly easy. He walked us through properties via video chat, going the extra mile to touch and describe surfaces and finishes - as well as offering refreshingly candid opinions - helping us to always feel fully informed. Rather than checking out once the purchase was on a glide-path (as many realtors we've worked with tend to do..), Tanner maintained clear and regular communication, routinely offering to host conference calls to give us weekly updates and a forecast of upcoming events. At no point did we ever feel that Tanner simply saw us as a transaction. If we ever purchase or sell another property on Oahu, we will certainly utilize Tanner again!

"....tremendous work ethic."
Tracy Yamato has assisted our family in a number of real estate transactions, most recently, the sale of a condominium. As many others have observed, Tracy is not only extremely knowledgeable about the state of the real estate market, but he has a tremendous work ethic. His assistance does not stop when the contract has been signed; he stays on top of all the important dates and details leading to closing, and is quick to notify you when issues arise and returns calls very quickly. He also has a sense of humor, particularly with regard to some of the quirks in Hawaii real estate transactions. And he surfs!

"....treasurable experience."
George Krischke is a conscientious and dedicated realtor. He worked with me to make sure that the property I chose met my expectations.  George goes the extra mile for his clients. His determination, skills, knowledge, intelligence, wit, and sense of humor made buying my condo a treasurable experience.

"....full of knowledge...."
We finally did it!!!! We worked with Tracey Yamato at Hawaii Living to get through one of the most confusing processes I've ever been a part of... WOW! Thank goodness for Tracey! Buying a home has been a dream but the actual process is WAY more involved than you might imagine. It can takes months of scouring properties before finding the home you love and only then does the real work begin. Deadlines, paperwork, inspections, contractors to schedule, do's, don'ts etc. etc. etc... it was crazy. There is so much to know and so much paperwork to understand we truly couldn't have done this without Tracey by our side. It is legitimately a full time job to handle all of the deadlines and inspections and there is just no way my partner and I could have kept up with our actual jobs while also managing all of this. Thank goodness Tracey was there every step of the way and so full of knowledge about every little thing that we could have possibly needed to know about. Thank you Tracey for all you did
