How to Maximize Your Real Estate Portfolio

Honored to Serve

Dave was installed as a member of the Board of Trustees for the Realtors Association of Maui. The Installation Banquet was a great opportunity to honor those who serve, to reunite with our fellow agents and to raise funds for the Scholarship awards for Maui”s graduating high school seniors with events like, “Raise the Paddle”, and the Silent Auction. Let’s all work together to serve our membership and our clients!


Seller Concessions

Thinking of selling your home? Seller concessions could be your key to a quicker sale and more attractive offers. By covering certain buyer expenses—like inspection fees, loan origination costs, or even home repairs—you can make your property stand out to buyers with tighter budgets. Concessions aren’t just a gesture; they’re a strategic choice that can be tailored to each deal, helping buyers see the value and affordability in your property. Whether advertised upfront or negotiated later, these offers can ease the buying process and bring in better offers. Consult a REALTOR® to explore your options and maximize your sale!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Buying a home remote is an incredible challenge, but Dave honestly made the process as easy as possible

My wife and I decided to move to Maui, a place we’d visited frequently but never lived. Buying a home remote is an incredible challenge, but Dave honestly made the process as easy as possible- his excellent knowledge of neighborhoods, excellent knowledge of the market and truly outstanding videos and walkthroughs of properties made the entire process as easy a buying experience as we’ve ever had!
