- Educate yourself on the 9 districts, 11 micro-climates, current market pricing, and area amenities. Check out the Your Journey section of my site for helpful information, as well as past posts under the Big Island & Real Estate section.
- Find a Realtor® who specializes in the kind of property you wish to buy. Interview her/him as to their qualifications, experience and commitment. You’re looking for a good “fit.”
- Commit to this Realtor® through the use of the Buyers Representation Contract. Why? Because he/she needs your commitment just like you need his/hers.
- Time is of the essence…don’t wait to present your offer when the time comes to pull the trigger. The property you want may be gone in the blink of an eye! It’s still a seller’s market.
- Follow your Timeline! A great agent will provide you your personalized Timeline to help you stay on course as you move through the escrow process. The various contingencies provide the opportunity to continue to closing or cancel, if needed. A miss on a date could mean “That ship has sailed” and you can’t get your deposit back.

I am an adventurer by heart, never letting too much dust settle under my feet. My latest adventure began in 2018, successfully merging over 46 years of varied work and life experience into a real estate career that focuses on the goals and dreams of my clients. Now, as a top 5% Coldwell Banker Realtor®, and two-time recipient of the coveted International President’s Circle award, I am so grateful I took that leap of faith!
LIVING THE HAWAII LIFESTYLE is living the dream! How can I help you purchase (or sell) a little slice of our heaven?
