David Skeele

Real Estate Broker

Compass · Hilo, HI

<p>Aloha!</p> <p>A 5th generation builder, farmer and rancher, David Skeele has spent the last 4 decades growing his reputation in Hawaii as an honest, hardworking professional who goes "above and beyond". His wealth of experience and magnetic personality are evident and on display as he truly loves helping others to accomplish their goals. David has closed a wide<br />array of transactions for everyone from inexperienced buyers and sellers to savvy investors with a remarkable work-ethic which is reflected by his numerous Top Producer awards and the sincere appreciation of his diverse clientele. His dedication, craftsmanship and "no-shortcuts" approach also earned him notoriety as a licensed general-contractor whose quality of work went unsurpassed for over 3 decades.</p> <p>David spent his childhood and teen years in upstate New York and Oregon where he worked on dairy farms and Southern California where he made a deep connection with the ocean. It's apparent he still embraces this connection as we talk about stand-up paddling and the 55 ft. gaff-rigged cutter he built with one of his brothers and some friends to sail around the world. After a 17 day-long voyage across the Pacific Ocean, David and his mates reached Hawaii where he fell in love with his future wife and decided to plant his roots.</p> <p>To get a head-start on his new life in Hawaii, David began farming ginger and taro on the Hamakua coast and continued his seasonal work in Alaska where he led his crew as a foreman on the world famous Trans-Alaska Pipeline. David then got licensed as a real-estate agent in 1980 and earned his broker's license in 1982. While discussing real-estate with him, I've found David offers rare knowledge and advice that only a professional with his vast experiences could provide. His grasp of the current market on Hawaii island is exceptional and I'm sure you'd agree that his representation is of a premium value.</p>

What my clients are saying

David was the rock that we needed to buy our home in Hawaii. His experience as a contractor before he became a realtor was invaluable. He could advise us about everything we needed to look at and know when buying a home in Hawaii. He knew exactly what we were looking for and were patient with us as we took on this almost 3-year long process. Most realtors would've given up but he was the one constant that helped guide us through everything. But it was more than simply buying a house - it was moving to a whole new state far away from where we came from. He knew who to put us in contact with to help us from inspection to electricity! Simply put - David was everything we ever hoped a realtor could be and then added things we never even knew would be handy. From showing us houses, identifying the right ones, counseling on where to look, being our advocate at every step with the sellers and the lenders, being responsive no matter what - he was the professional you want in your corner. But David was also a human who showed great humor throughout. We will never forget him lying down on the floor for us to see if the dog bed of our Great Dane would fit into the master bedroom! And he told us about great places to eat - lots of laughter throughout something that could easily be stressful. Best realtor we've ever worked with - and we've moved three continents, three states, 13 homes!

David was a great realtor. His insight as a builder made the buying process of an older home possible. Throughout the process David was able to bring to light concerns and potential issues so that I had full awareness through the buying process. As a local to the area, he has many contacts that were able to inspect and give recommendations. I wouldn't have been able to make a solid choice on buying an older home without his island building expertise. Oh and he is also a really cool guy with a calming authority!
