Reviews of Hawaii Sands Realty

Josef Vesely

Kathryn was essential in helping us prepare our condo for our new tenants. Specifically, she helped us find skilled professionals to manage our condo improvements and repairs. Moreover, Kathryn also secured for us a lease duration that was very important for us. Finally, for possible new tenants, she organized an amazing video both of the ocean view from the condo and of the amenities from within the condo. We are very happy to have Kathryn as our property manager. She is very thorough and dependable and we strongly recommend her as a property manager or for any other real estate need. Thank you Kathryn

Hawaii Sands Realty was so easy to work with! Timely, professional, and trustworthy. Moving from the mainland back home to Oahu was so much easier once we started working with Alex. He helped us get an amazing apartment even though I couldn’t tour in person. Everything was explained in great detail and any questions I had were quickly answered.

Alex and Dave are life savers. I contacted them 4 days before I was leaving Island. They worked with me expeditiously. They clearly walked me through the entire process. Dave was able to get my place rental ready and placed tenets in very quickly. Overall it has been an amazing stress free experience. I would highly recommend Hawaii Sands Realty to anyone.

Daniel Lum

I can not speak highly enough of Alex and his team over at Hawaii Sands Realty. Alex has helped every step of the way with renting out our apartment. He went above and beyond with arranging inspections, working with the building managers, arranging apartment upgrades and cleanings. Communication was top notch and I never felt like I was out of the loop. I am very glad I went with Hawaii Sands Realty. I wanted to make sure our tenants were happy with their home and with the support and work that Alex put in, I can rest assured that is the case. I highly recommend Alex and Hawaii Sands Realty.

When my family was ready to move out of our long time home and into something new, we wanted to work with someone that we could trust would be invested in our best interests. Alex worked tirelessly to help us find the right condo for our family in our top pick building AND negotiated a great price. Once we finished moving, Alex listed our old condo for sale. Even though interest rates had spiked and the market had softened, we still feel like we walked away with a great deal without spending any money to update the condo. Overall, Alex and his partners at Hawaii Mortgage and Old Republic Title made our experience as painless as can be.

I’m not one to normally leave reviews but Alex and Dave take customer service to the next level, so they deserve it! As a roofing contractor, it’s been really refreshing working with a company that never leaves you waiting or in the dark. All communication is quick and efficient. The care they show their clients is above par as well, which makes my experience with the home owners that much more enjoyable.

This is my first time working with the property management company. I was a bit skeptical at first but Eric makes the transition easy. He is very professional, responsive, and is on top of things related to the property. He would just make things happened. There is one time that we needed to change the front lock since it wasn’t locking well. He called up and said he would replaced it. Since we aren’t around, we didn’t want to call the contractor for this tiny job. Good to have very handy property manager so we don’t have to ran to the Contractor with tiny little things. We really appreciate he makes himself available from his busy schedule and took care of it. 🙏 Regarding the leases, he hit every target. We are very happy that I came across Eric and let him handle our property.

Alex from Hawaii Sands Realty is very professional and took care of everything. He kept us up to date with everything going on and quickly got our apartment tenant occupied. We are so thankful we chose this company and highly recommend them.

Wayne L

We are happy with the advertisement. They did a good job with the pictures and video. They have a good portal for owners and tenants. Eric has been doing a good job managing my property and communicating with me. He is prompt in answering my email and getting things done. Happy with their service.

Effie Luan

I just want to say that Dave is the best agent. He gives us professional advises and helps us make great decisions. We really appreciate his efforts. Dave takes care of our property like his own. Great service! Thank you Dave

I'm glad I chose to work with Hawaii Sands and Dave to find my rental property. With the stress of moving on island and house hunting, their site made it easy to search rentals, view the property, and get in touch with an agent. Dave was very responsive, professional, and answered every little question and concern. Highly recommend working with this company!

Steven X.

Recently, we used Hawaii Sands services and really appreciated their professionalism, promptness and attentiveness to our requirements and requests. They made the complex and often frustrating process much more pleasant and went the extra mile to resolve issues, especially Alex, our agent and broker. We couldn't have done it without their help and highly recommend their services.

I could give 10 star to this company if possible! Home owners who need an awesome property management, this is it! Your guy would be David “Dave” Moyer. We contacted Dave as we were trying to switch out property management. We had our home up in the market for 5 months with our initial property management and they could not get us a tenant. With Dave, it was a smooth process. He came to our home within few days of contacting him and had the listing up in short amount of time. He secured us a tenant within 4 days of it being in the market! Very impressive! He’s absolutely the best! We are so glad we took the leap to switch out property management. Mahalo, Dave!

Todd Coker

My wife and I really enjoyed working with Alex for our property. He was always quick to respond to inquiry and a swift problem solver. He has an abundance of experience and qas very thorough with our property. We would refer him without reservation.

Simon LKJ

Can you believe only took them 5 days to find me a new tenant. Awesome work. Alex is good at keeping us posted and prompt response via text/email. Highly recommend this company.

Cameron Silverberg

Hawaii Sands Realty has been excellent. I moved in about a month ago and love my unit and building. Alex has been extremely helpful and responsive whenever I have needed help with my unit. Very much recommend this local business!

Alex Watson

Working with Dave at Hawaii Sands Realty has changed our lives. Dave helped us plan our transition from living the renters life, to owning an investment property with tenants to help cover the mortgage. Now we use Hawaii Sands to manage our property. Our tenants love the fact that everything can be done online from paying rent to submitting work orders. We also rest assured knowing that Dave will find us the best tenants possible using nationwide databases in the tenant screening process. So far we've had ZERO problems. Whether you're looking for help with property management, wanting to buy tomorrow or 5 years from now, it's never too early or late to talk about real estate with Dave. Highly recommend!!

Joshua McElfresh

It’s not often to encounter property managers who care about their clients landscaping needs. Hawaii Sands definitely puts their clients first to ensure their homes are well cared for. It has been a pleasure working with them as one of their landscaping vendors.

Lauren Vasta

Alex was a true pleasure to work with and clearly a master of his craft. He was efficient, comprehensive, timely and thoughtful. I enjoyed working with him and would refer him without hesitation.

kai blumke

Katherine has been nothing short of amazing! From the communication speed to the quality of services provided, I got to say it has been an awesome first two months under her management. Thank you for having an eye on detail!! Kai-

Ashly Sboray

I was looking for ala carte tenant placement services here on island and after seeing the reviews how could i not give Hawaii Sands a call?! After my call was answered on the second ring and answers were provided to all of my questions I knew this was the company for me! I had the pleasure of working with Eric Deblois as my agent who was very attentive, responsive and knowledgeable. His attention to detail and caring nature ensured that everything was completed correctly and in a timely manner. I plan to continue to use Eric for future services and highly recommend him and Hawaii Sands for your real estate needs!

Jem Efe

My experience has been that it's rare to find individuals in the real estate sector who *truly* go above & beyond expectations. Alex at Hawaii Sands did this in all ways possible, inspiring confidence from the get-go by bringing a well thought-out strategy to the table, supported by data and enabled by easy-to-use technology. As a result, we were able to find a suitable condo on Oahu within a couple months despite fierce competition and us being remotely located in California. Alex was always engaged, super-responsive, and often made it feel like we were his sole focus (and he definitely had several other clients). As an example, he arranged amazing accommodations for my son & myself at a great rate when we visited Oahu to tour neighborhoods and properties. And while we were there, he not only shared key insights about real estate on Oahu but also brought to bear a cultural depth & perspective, and even took us sightseeing. We're very happy to be continuing our relationship with Alex and Hawaii Sands for rental property management.

John W

Hawaii Sands did a great job meeting our needs. Definitely recommend them for sales and management.

Joseph Libasci

After over a month with another company an no results, I was put in touch with Alex at Hawaii Sands. He called and spoke with me the same and was out viewing and taking pictures almost immediately! Alex was able to secure multiple qualified candidates in just over a week! One week! One! Alex somehow managed to do what a previous property management company was unable to accomplish in over a month, in just a single week. Thanks Alex!!!!

Marissa Perry

This is by far the best and most responsive realty company that I have contacted so far here in Hawaii. Mrs. Kathryn is so personable and has really made this process a lot smoother for me. My boyfriend and I just moved here and have contacted at least 40 rental properties. Barely any of them answer the phones or respond to emails. Mrs. Kathryn got back to me immediately and I was able to see the property within the first hour of seeing the listing online. Mrs. Kathryn really cares about helping you adjust to living in this new state and has routinely checked on us to make sure that we were doing ok and if we needed anything. She even stayed later after the inspection to give us suggestions on hotels, beaches, and restaurants. I can tell that she genuinely cares about her tenants. I can honestly say, do not waste your time with other companies who act like they don’t care. When my boyfriend and I get adjusted to everything here, I will definitely be buying my first house with Mrs. Kathryn.

Jeff Henry

We give Hawaii Sands Realty the highest praise and our full endorsement. They continue to provide us a service greater than anything I could have expected. Their professionalism and care is amazing! We know our best interest and property is in safe hands with Hawaii Sands Realty. We are currently utilizing their property management services and could not be happier. I had always been firmly against establishing a long term rental because of all the horror stories I had heard. It was actually a neighbor of mine, a lasting touchstone of the neighborhood, who would continually sing his property managers property managers' praise. After a few months of this unsolicited endorsement, I decided to meet with Dave and see what he and the Hawaii Sands team could offer. My wife and I were both blown away with their knowledge and professionalism. We are going on 3 years with them and I hope to be partnered with them forever.

Carina Pelino

Alex was wonderful to work with and really helped make our transition from mainland to island life easier. He was professional but also kind and welcoming. We never met face to face, that’s what happens when you move 2,800 miles away during a pandemic, but he was able to answer all our questions and was understanding. The company was able to provide virtual touring of the home which helped us so much with figuring out if the place was big enough for us and if our furniture would fit. Overall it was a very smooth process for me and my husband, especially considering the times. When we are in the market to look for a new place to live we will be using Hawaii Sands Reality again! Mahalo Alex!

Alan Yonan

I met with several prospective property managers before deciding to go with Hawaii Sands Realty. I definitely made the right decision. Dave Moyer and Jon Hines did a terrific job of marketing the property and finding me an excellent tenant in a short amount of time. They are extremely professional, responsive and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Hawaii Sands to anyone looking for a stress-free experiencing renting or selling their home.

Jenna Bendfeldt

Alex Watson is fantastic. He is friendly, kind and so helpful. Personally, I really felt as though he was looking out for me and my roommates needs while trying to find a home! Even when the listings we were looking at weren’t through Hawaii Sands, he was more than helpful with getting us in contact with property managers in order to schedule viewings, ask about pet policies, if a property is still available or not, you name it. I now have a place to live and got to e-meet some one who I would recommend to anyone looking for a home in beautiful Hawaii. Thank you Alex!!!

lily lau

I own a condo in Honolulu but I live in Arizona. I hired Hawaii Sands Realty and they have helped me find and screen quality applicants and manage wear/tear issues of the condo. They have given me peace of mind in their attentiveness to tenant and owner concerns. I would highly recommend their services.

Amy Beaird

Jon was a pleasure to work with and we will miss having him as our property manager! Anytime we had a question or needed help with anything in regards to our rental, he was always very prompt and made the process very easy. He always explained everything in depth and is just an all around great guy!

Lea Anne Ng

Jon Hines is amazing to work with. He is a dynamic individual — personable, responsive, and very professional. He has great insight into the market and offers sound advice on what it takes to rent the house. The team, including Alex Wagner, the photographer, is top notch, and you can’t beat the marketing effort by Hawaii Sands! Kudos to a job well done! Mahalo!!

Emma Chapman

We've worked with Hawaii Sands for about five years, they've always provided an outstanding service, fast response times and the utmost professionalism. I've referred them to anyone who will listen - and they too have been delighted with the service. I do not hesitate to recommend them. Used for long term property management, advice on renovating for rental market and full rental management for annual rental. They are excellent.

Stanley Bloom

Hawaii Sands Realty made it possible for me and my fiance to relocate to Hawaii during Covid-19. They were the only company to provide virtual viewings while most companies told us we had to view in person, this being difficult with the mandatory quarantine. They are understanding , caring, and value their clients. There communication and customer service is outstanding. Happy to finally be able to call Hawaii home!

robert laracuente

I am soo happy that i changed property managers. I had happydoors taking care of my property and it has been a nightmare. Dave Moyer has been soooo awesome helping me put my home back on the market. He responds to all my emails in a timely manner and he is honest and straight forward. I will say now DO NOT GET happydoors and consider this company to manage your property. New update: After two weeks of switching over from happydoors to Hawaii Sands Realty, David was able to find tenants for me. THANK YOU DAVID YOUR AWESOME!!

Lorena Leithead

My husband and I moved to the island early this month, aka in the middle of all of the chaos! Finding housing on the island was SO hard and very very stressful. When we found our home, Dave helped us from beginning to end and still checks and makes sure we’re still in love with our home. We were able to do everything virtually and everything was perfectly ready for our move in date. Dave has been so unbelievably helpful, friendly, and just overall awesome! He made what was a stressful experience so smooth and literally hassle free. Thank you Dave!!!!

Alexander Malabey

Hawaii Sands Realty, its agents, and values coincide with my company values. Working hard for our clients' Due Diligence and making sure we are the eyes and professionals when you find that dream home that when we leave the property and our newly made friends lets them know that we are in it for the long haul while you fulfill your dream. Hawaii Sands Realty is a group that is respectable and knowledgeable, looking for high-end and quality products and homes that will be move-in ready. David Moyer and Alex Watson, and the team are always on top when closing on your home.

Eric Hauge

We have been impressed with Dave’s professionalism and knowledge since he started managing our property over 2 years ago, so it was only natural we hired him to sell it too. We couldn’t be happier with the results. Dave fought hard for us to get the maximum amount possible for our home.

Andy Cheng

Dave is the agent that I have ever met. He provides great advices and suggestions. Thank you Dave!

Calvin Lau

My fiancee and I are currently renting a unit managed by Hawaii Sands Realty. We've really enjoyed our interactions with Dave Moyer who has always been extremely quick to respond (both during the initial process and ever since). We are really grateful for their hard work and responsiveness!

Ellen Thomson

Working with Hawaii Sands Realty and Alex was great! Alex is always very responsive and checking in to make sure everything with the rental is good. I would definitely recommend this company if anyone is looking to rent/buy!

Justin Henry

David Moyer has been an amazing property manager! He stays on-top of everything involved with the property I own in Hawaii. I live in a different state so it would be a serve headache if I didn't have him. I appreciate everything he has done for me!

BRITT YOUNG

Alex was great to work with--within days, he had come out to take professional photos and search for a tenant. Very quickly, he found the right tenants and took care of all the background checks. We simply didn't have the time to do it all, and we are glad he was there for us!

Lauren Rawlins

There isn’t enough great things to say about working with Hawaii Sands Realty. My family and I needed to find a rental very quickly and Hawaii Sands Realty made this usual stressful process a wonderful experience. Their selection of properties were all very impressive and their response time was amazing. We are current renters with HSR and could not be happier with their service. Thank you Hawaii Sands Team!!

Seth Taylor

David was an excellent landlord. Always responded quickly, took care of any maintenance requests promptly, followed up on services to make sure everything finalized correctly, and always with a professional and friendly disposition. We really appreciated having him as our landlord. Thank you David!

Jennifer Lee

Jon Hines is the realtor to ask for. He helped us on multiple transactions and we were always provided with excellent services both as a buyer and seller. Jon is well experienced, works fast with attention to details, is trustworthy and works hard to get the best deal for you. We highly recommend Jon! Mahalo for all your help.

Bo Yang

Eric from Hawaii Sands Realty helped us tremendously on landing our first tenant in Hawaii, and I know who I would rely on for future needs!

The team operates with the utmost respect and attention to detail in their dealings with their clients. Thank you, HSR team!

erin nelson

Owning a house on Oahu while living on the mainland was stressful for us... until we started working with Hawaii Sands Realty to manage our property. Alex has taken the worry off our shoulders and manages everything. Finances, maintenance issues, tenant relations, you name it. Everything is done online where I can see inspection reports, property financials, and my owners payments, which go directly to my bank account via EFT. Cant say enough about working with these guys. Thanks Hawaii Sands!

Travis Kini

It is always pleasant to work with Jon Hines. He works very hard to makes sure everything goes smoothly and communicates very well. Jon holds to professional standards to ensure quality property management. Highly recommend!

Svetlana Nelson

Alex and Dave at Hawai’i sands realty have been essential for my home search process. They first helped me a few years ago with finding the right rental for me for a short term arrangement. Now I work with them as a source for investment opportunities in real estate in O‘ahu. You can look for better representation, but you won’t find it.

Adam Kirchmann
