About Alex

I was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and at age 24, I decided to quit a Mechanical Engineering University Program to travel and pursue my passion for surfing. After spending 2 years in California, my passion for surfing brought me to Maui in September 1995. After a couple of surf trips to Maui, I decided to move here in April 1996. Prior to becoming a full time agent in 2007, I spent 2 years managing vacation rentals properties at Maui Condo & Home, a branch company of Aston Resorts, which gave me a solid foundation in resort properties as well as inventory knowledge of vacation rental condominiums in South Maui. I focus on South Maui real estate, but I have successfully represented clients purchasing and selling properties in other areas of Maui. In 2022, I had the honor of receiving the Realtor of the Year award from my peers for my dedication to the profession and contribution to our community. It was definitely a highlight of my career! At the start of 2025, I embraced the role of Broker-in-Charge (BIC) on Maui, continuing to support our agents and clients with the aloha spirit and expertise that define Hawai‘i Life. My focus is on expanding our presence on Maui while supporting our agents, fostering strong relationships, growth, and success across our incredible team. I used to be a long time Kihei resident, but recently moved to Olinda in the upcountry area of Maui. I live with my wife, Farel, our two sons, Ian and Noah and two Australian Shepherds named Kaya and River. We recently added two cats, three dwarf goats and a flock of chickens to our small farm :)

About John

I have the good fortune of being a lifelong resident of the beautiful Island of Maui. I grew up Upcountry Maui and have chosen to raise my family on the North Shore and Upcountry Maui. I have supported the family business The Pet Shop in the Maui Mall since 1973. Having been an athlete my whole life, my curiosity of and passion for health optimization led me to Pepperdine University where I earned a Bachelor of Science Sports Medicine in 1994. I returned to Maui and worked as a Personal Trainer at the Grand Wailea Resort and Maui Family YMCA helping others to optimize their health. My focus of optimization began to shift leading me to become a Real Estate Agent in 1998. For over 20 years, I have been helping friends, family and treasured clients work in the Maui real estate markets of Upcountry, North Shore and Wailea. I genuinely enjoy helping people fulfill their real estate needs whether they be finding a first-time home, selling their home or investment property, building an investment property and/ or working on investment portfolio objectives. I believe in giving back to this island that I call home through coaching, volunteering, being a role model for the next generation, community service and civic duty. I have been serving as the Vice President of the Hawaiian Canoe Club since 2007. I am a member of the Native Hawaiian Chamber of Commerce. I am a Kamehameha Schools Alumni member and member of the Seabury Hall Alumni association. I coached the varsity outrigger canoe paddling team at Seabury Hall, was a Maui County Planning Commissioner where I served as Vice Chair for one year and also sat on Realtors Association of Maui Board of Directors. I have been a firefighter on Maui since 2009 and just recently made the decision to close that chapter so that I can focus more of my energy into serving your real estate needs. My experience is broad ranging allowing me the opportunity to better understand and meet your needs. My vision is that of an optimized Maui where the land and water are honored. I love water sports, mainly international competition in canoe paddling, one man canoe, surfing, paddle boarding, Jiu jitsu training, soccer, rugby, family time, friends, socializing, food, pets, work and staying active. I gravitate toward clients that have similar belief systems and hopes for Maui. When you are ready to begin working on your Hawaii Real Estate needs, call me at 808-870-2227 or email at john@hawaiilife.com Aloha, John B

Liam Ball

REALTOR® Broker

About Liam

For 23 years I have had the good fortune to call Maui my home. A self confessed Dwell Magazine fanboy, I love all things about architecture, sustainability, and great design. From modernism, to classic vintage single wall construction, I am delighted to be working and living in the real estate industry where I am constantly exposed to diverse Hawaii architecture. Having successfully completed a 2 lot agricultural subdivision, and a number of owner builder construction projects, I have great familiarity with the inner workings of the county and I know how to get things done. When I'm not working, I spend time weeding my organic Tea Farm, and am in the preliminary stage of erecting a "Bunkie" at 'Ulupalakua. Fun times indeed! I look forward to sharing my enthusiasm with you and offering my extensive resources and knowledge so that you may create your very own "Hawaii Life". Aloha, Liam S

Seller review

Alex Abreu demonstrates excellent mastery of details, and delivers prompt communication.

Alex was a very responsive partner in the sale of my CPR acreage. At no point did I feel pressured to compromise, but when asking for direction, I received a clear opinion that demonstrated his deep knowledge of the market and the current local situation. His explanations of the forms involved were incredibly helpful, and his responsiveness across different time zones was astounding.
