REALTOR® Broker

About Dan

I see my role as a real estate broker as a connector between people and ʻāina — between a person or family and the place they’ll call home. Everyone comes with a story, and I try to understand what matters most before I start giving advice. From there, I’m genuinely looking out for my clients. If I’m working with a buyer and something doesn’t feel right, I’ll be the first to speak up. If I’m working with a seller and I see ways to add value, I’m right there too. I’m not just here for the sale — I’m here to look out for you. I’m your Hāmākua real estate expert. I live in Laupāhoehoe and my office is in Honokaʻa. Since 2014, I’ve focused on learning the Hāmākua Coast from Waimea to Hilo — the climate pockets, the neighborhoods, the quirks, the water realities, and what actually matters day-to-day once you own the property. I love sharing what I know with people who feel drawn to this area of the island. These days, I intentionally work with a small number of clients at a time so I can stay hands-on and present. I don’t use assistants — you work directly with me the whole way through. I take the cost of buying and selling seriously, and I treat it like it’s my own money on the line – striving to help you make decisions you’ll feel good about later. Outside of real estate, my kids come first. My family and I live off-grid, and I’m involved in stewarding the ʻāina we’re fortunate to care for. I value a healthy and simple life, and that perspective carries into how I work and how I show up for clients. Whether you’re buying or selling — land, a family home, or something complex — my goal is to be a resource you can rely on. Sometimes that means telling someone not to sell/buy, or being upfront if I don’t think I’m the best fit for what you need. Either way, I’ll always look out for you. If you’re thinking about making a move, or just want to talk story, reach out. Let’s connect and see how I can help with your ʻāina needs — no pressure.

REALTOR® Salesperson

About Jessica

Aloha! Born and raised in the bustling city of Los Angeles, California, I made the life-changing move to the Big Island of Hawaii back in 2005. Being from a big city, I can relate to and connect with a wide range of individuals and backgrounds. Embracing the laid-back island lifestyle, I find immense joy in assisting both local families and those looking for a second home on the island. With a passion for photography and background in graphic design, I infuse creativity into my daily life and add an artistic touch to the real estate experience that I offer. When I'm not assisting clients, you'll find me cruising and exploring the island with my girls, capturing the beauty of our surroundings through my lens. My professional journey on the Big Island has been marked by a diverse array of experiences, from roles as a teacher's aide to a spa attendant. It was during my tenure as a front desk agent for multiple hotels that I confirmed my innate talent for delivering exceptional customer service. This, combined with my passion for uncovering the hidden beauty in homes that may otherwise be overlooked, fueled my desire to pursue a career in real estate. Ultimately, my goal is to seamlessly merge my love for transforming fixer-uppers with my keen eye for design and breathe new life into homes for new families. In addition to my personal skills and aspirations, I am proud to align myself with Hawai’i Life, as they share my commitment to providing unparalleled service. As a Hawai’i Life agent, I can offer clients exclusive perks, such as access to a vast network of local experts, in-depth market insights, and a genuine understanding of the unique real estate landscape in Hawai’i. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, a family in search of a dream residence, I am dedicated to tailoring my services to meet your individual needs. I’m excited for each and every new client that I meet, and my commitment is to provide a personalized experience that exceeds expectations. I strive to create lasting and meaningful relationships, so that you can feel confident in recommending me to friends and family. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me, and I look forward to taking an unforgettable real estate journey with you. Aloha, Jessica N

REALTOR® Salesperson

About Kanoe L.

Born and raised in the heart of Waimea, I am a life-long resident of Hawaii. Growing up in this community has given me the experience and knowledge to help you find the perfect property; high and cool elevation, or low and warm; convenient in town or quiet in the country; by the ocean or a cascading stream. I will know and can help you. I have numerous years of serving clients and being active in her community has given her the humility and wisdom to recognize how valuable it is to take care of each client, no matter how big or small the transaction. I cherish the days I have on my 5-acre farm with my wonderful husband and three active, growing boys, farming vegetables, and raising chickens and goats. Nothing brings me more pleasure and peace of mind than working the land and helping it give us food for ourselves and friends. The whole family pitches in. In my free time, I enjoy horseback riding, fishing, camping, or relaxing on one of the many beautiful beaches. There are so many ways to enjoy nature and the outdoors, Hawaii is a nature lovers paradise! I feel very fortunate and grateful to be working with people I like and respect in a supportive fun atmosphere. I left a managerial position at US Airways and chose to become a real estate agent in order to share my experience, That and because I enjoy helping others to realize their dream of owning a home on the Big Island. If you are new to the Island, or a long time resident, I can help you make the Real Estate choice to best suit you. Aloha, Kanoe L.

Dan is knowledgeable and professional. He's always available for questions and is intelligent, observant and warm. He's extremely current on real estate intricacies and knows the area well. We really enjoyed our time with him in what was a lengthy and at times difficult process and would not hesitate to recommend him.
