I have tried to sell my property in Hawaii at least 3 times before over a span of ten years. I was very frustrated We do not live in the States.
UNTIL I contacted Lori A. McNeel at First Island Realty. From that first phone call forward, I was confident that I had found the perfect person for the job.
AND DID I EVER😊😊😊😊
Within a couple weeks Lori had worked her magic, and my property was SOLD. I could not believe it. I am sure Ms. McNeel got a chuckle when I keep asking her to tell me “it was not a dream”. We also got the priced we asked. I was in disbelieve.
Lori continued to walk us thru the process. And as older generation, I needed a lot of help.
I still can’t believe how easy and quick this all happened. If you need a great, and I mean great realtor. Call Lori.
You’ve found the best! Look no further, Lori will take care of you! She is honest, accessible, keeps me updated at every step, and deftly solves any problems that arise. She has helped me with 4 transactions so far, buying and selling, and my only go-to for the future. Customer service seems a lost art these days, but Lori delivers in every way!
There aren’t ENOUGH words to describe how Lori goes ABOVE & BEYOND for every little detail from start to finish! There is NEVER any pressure and she treats you like family! The world needs more humans like Lori! Mahalo for ALL you have done!!
I’ll NEVER use anyone else!
