Aloha! As a fifth-generation Kama'aina, I was born here on Maui and grew up in the small Upcountry town of Makawao. I am grateful that my education has taken me to San Francisco, Massachusetts and London, and that I've had the opportunity to travel to many parts of the world. A graduate of Smith College, I initially returned home to Maui to be with my family and work as a crisis counselor at a local shelter. I grew interested in real estate, and began my career in 1997. The relationships I have formed with my clients over the years are some of the most wonderful and important in my life. I enjoy this profession immensely--it allows me to use my knowledge of the island and the nuances of living in various areas and communities to fulfill my clients' lifelong dreams of living in Paradise. The hallmark of my approach is a client-first philosophy. Behind this philosophy is in-depth community and market knowledge, marketing savvy, integrity, and effective negotiation skills (view testimonials). Over the years, I have built a high-quality professional network, including lenders, home inspectors, appraisers, rental program managers, and more. In order to best serve my sellers, I am thrilled to be a part of the Sotheby's International Realty network, and to be partnered with an organization that is known for representing the finest luxury real estate here on Maui and around the world. Prior to my affiliation with Sotheby's, I worked with Kapalua Realty for nearly twelve years. In my career in real estate, I have represented Buyers and Sellers of some of the finest in Resort, Golf Course, Oceanfront and Oceanview properties that Maui has to offer. I have served as a board member for the Realtor's Association of Maui as both the West Maui Regional Director and as a Director at Large, and volunteered on our Wishing Well project. My service on the Realtor's Association of Maui Board and Community Foundation have provided me with valuable information on the market and the community. In 2014, I received the honor of Realtor (S) of the Year from the Realtor's Association of Maui, which is given only once to an agent who exemplifies professionalism and community involvement. I have been named to Hawaii Business Magazine's Top 100 Realtors in the State of Hawaii, and to REAL Trends America's Best Real Estate Agents. So when you decide that you'd like to buy or sell property in Maui, I hope you will contact me. A summary of my services follows below. I look forward to working with you! Mahalo, Courtney
