Michael K.

Buyer

‟Rustan and Charlene made the home buying process as smooth as can be. As a first time home buyer, I naturally went into the process a bit worried about how complicated the entire process was going to be but Rustan and Charlene made everything a walk in the park. I was amazed at how quick the transaction was completed and how they were always so pat … ient with the questions we had. The best thing about these two were that they were still helping out with home repairs and furnishings even after the transaction was complete. Rustan is one of those rare, genuinely kind people you find in a business where you really have to trust who you're working with. I would definitely recommend all my friends and family to do business with them because of the wonderful experience I had with them. Thanks again Rus and Char!” Read More ▼

Buyer

‟Rustan and Char did an awesome job helping us find our house. At the time, we were trying to get in on the USDA federal deal to get us a house which had a limiting deadline and they were able to give us a good selection of homes to check out. No matter the hour, they were thorough in giving us immediate response times especially since we had the de … adline. I think we only looked at houses for a month or two.In the end, we ended up getting a planned community home, but they were still there to make sure we handled all the paperwork and gave us the confidence (especially for my wife), that we would be able to close in on the house and meet the deadlines of all the parties involved.We will definitely be looking to them for our next home (hopefully soon, guys)! Thanks for the awesome job and follow through!” Read More ▼

Holly A.

Seller

‟Rustan and Charlene are two of the finest people AND realtors we have ever had the pleasure of working worth. I can honestly, and without reservation, say that they go above and beyond giving 110% to each of their clients. They sold our home in 8 days. They kept our stress and nerves at almost zero level and were always available to answer question … s or go over things whenever we needed. If you are EVER in the market to buy or sell a home on Oahu, give them a call.” Read More ▼

Joseph B.

Buyer

‟I was brand new to the island and slightly overwhelmed with the nuances of moving half-way across the world. Within the first two weeks of my arrival to Oahu, Charlene worked closely with me to find time to view plenty of properties to give me a great idea of the market in Hawaii.Before we met, I was looking for three things in a realtor; patience, … an active listener, and a professional to represent me in the process. Charlene clearly exceeded my expectations in all three categories, and made my first time home buying experience extremely easy and fun at the same time. I have honestly had more trouble in the past buying cars. Everyone that Charlene set me up with from the mortgage agency, title company etc. were all extremely personable and a pleasure to work with.If you are on the move, I highly recommend Charlene to help you with your existing or future home. You will not be disappointed.” Read More ▼

Christian P.

Seller

‟Rustan and Char are an outstanding team. Before we even set foot on island, they started to work with my wife and I, jump starting our dream of purchasing our new home. We consider Rustan and Char not only a exceptionally professional team, but as two amiable friends that we rely on for honest advice and input. When I was gone off island for an ext … ended work period, they took time out of their day to bring my spouse for dinner. And now, as we begin our exit strategy of the island, they have provided priceless counsel of what our best plans are. Rustan and Char will always be remembered as "Ohana."Thank you both!” Read More ▼
