More Testimony

• I first met Ann Williams in 8/2022 when she was the agent who showed me a rental unit at the Masters. I rented the unit while looking for a condo to buy. At that time Ann mentioned the unit above me was for sale. I was impressed that Ann didn’t put any pressure on me whatsoever to buy this unit. Over the next few months I decided I was interested in purchasing the unit upstairs. Ann was really prompt with all our back and forth communications. Over the years I have bought and sold multiple residential properties. Ann is hands down the best agent I have ever worked with. She is very professional, honest, diligent, punctual, gracious and has a strong work ethic. Ann is extremely knowledgeable about the housing market in this area, and the island in general. As a newcomer to Maui I had many basic questions, and Ann always treated me with great respect and was extremely helpful, going the extra mile many times.C. Chamberlain

• Kaanapali Alii Team Ann and Sue are a remarkable team of professionals. They have worked diligently and effectively to accommodate every request we have made regarding the sale of our property. Their cheery attitude has been equally valuable. I and my family are deeply grateful for the personal effort which each of them has made to assist in selling our property. Their combined experience and local contacts made a huge difference when various objectives had to be accomplished.Hire them, you will be glad you did.

• “Dear Sue… We would not be owners of apt 1103 of the Kanapali Alii if it hadn’t been for your herculean efforts. It was not your ordinary real estate transaction by any means. It had many wrinkles and could have fallen through; but you held it together and it closed. However, that is not the reason Rosemary and I want to thank you. Normally, closing would have been the end, but you went above and beyond our wildest expectations in readying the unit for the rental program. We were worried when a family emergency cancelled our plans to travel to Maui to clean out, repair and furnish the apartment. You followed through–clearing out unnecessary household items, contracting for and overseeing repairs, shopping for furniture and even taking items to a consignment shop for resale! Your attention to detail should be applauded. Thanks to your efforts, we are in the rental pool and renting very well! There is not a doubt in our minds that we would not be in this position if you had not performed such an outstanding job. Looking forward to celebrating with you when we come to Maui in November!”

• Katie Zimmerman and her team at Maui Luxury Real Estate were a joy to work with! They made the process of buying our Maui home a breeze and were with us every step of the way. Katie is very knowledgeable, professional, kind, and funny, too! She made us 2 of the happiest people on Maui. We can’t thank her enough! Highly recommend Maui Luxury Real Estate Team!
• “I’d like to recommend Susan DeLoria to anyone looking for property in Hawaii. She is not only knowledgeable and informative, but also extremely pleasant to work with. We enjoyed time with Susan in Maui (always at our convenience) and then spent time on the phone and communicated via email too, we were with her for several months and she still keeps in touch to make sure all is well. During the process she did everything she said she would and always offered to do more. Susan was even able to get us a property that wasn’t listed for sale! She was always willing to do whatever we wanted and never tried to push us into anything. We did a long distance closing and she was extremely helpful with the walk-thru and getting the seller to fix needed items and then she followed through to make sure that everything was completed satisfactorily. Susan is friendly, always returns calls and emails promptly and just seems so willing to go above and beyond. She loves Maui and wants others to get the proper fit so that they will love it too. The whole process was so enjoyable (of course who wouldn’t be happy in paradise) that we’re even thinking of doing it all again – but not without Susan!” Noli and Cindy Libut CA
• I have known Gina Parola for about nine years now, initially meeting her during my search to purchase a residential property.  From the outset, Gina exercised her innate generosity and professionalism during my exhaustive search, driving me through neighborhoods  from Kihei to Napili.  The purchase process on a short sale without my presence was a complicated one but made to look routine due to Gina’s considerable real estate knowledge.  If a short sale without the purchaser present is complicated, try a sale during a global pandemic.  And of course Gina performs above and beyond expectations as well as taking care of a considerable number of loose ends.  Gina is an exceptionally talented real estate professional who I trust unreservedly.  If you are lucky enough to have Gina take on your business – do not hesitate – you can rest assured that the transaction will be completed to the highest standards.

Her eye for detail is remarkable and we had confidence that she would catch any concerns or red flags that could influence the transaction.
