Stephen Nikkola

“What I liked most about working with Steve was how it quickly became a growth process. As he got to know us and grew more familiar with our needs, preferences, likes and dislikes, he also encouraged us to rethink some of our assumptions, based on his knowledge and experience, yet always doing so in a comfortable and supportive manner. Because Steve took such a specific interest in us, he knew how best to guide us through all aspects of the purchase process, giving us space to take our time and think things through when we needed it, but also being honestly forthright as necessary. He very clearly knows and understands the intricacies of a complex real estatel market, and helped us clarify where we might need to make compromises in ways that made sense, and showed a great sensitivity to both our requirements, and the market realities -- not an easy task. Buying a home for the first time in Hawaii is such a huge undertaking, and we were prepared for the worst. Instead, our experience was nothing short of wonderful, as was the house Steve helped us find. Mahalo!”

“Excellent! so easy to work with, catches every possible / potential issue and responds ASAP to any question or concern. I'd recommend him to anyone and everyone.”

“Stephen provided excellent care and services for our house hunt. He was very patient and dedicated to our finding exactly the right home. We had a very particular set of requirements in the house that we were looking for, and Stephen was great about helping us figure out what our options were. He was also very knowledgeable about local real estate laws and requirements, which was very useful in having a smooth transaction (to the degree that any real estate transaction can be simple).”
