Testimonials

We began our property search online a year before we enlisted Lisa's expertise. We visited many real estate sites but found her & Mark's site was the most informative & user friendly. We travelled to the island twice to see homes with Lisa and the days were jam-packed. We looked on both the westside & Wailea, looking at many beautiful custom homes. She was always accommodating with her time whether by email, phone or on island with her. After a few disappointing false starts and Lisa reassuring us that we would find a home, we did indeed find the perfect place. Lisa is very responsible, extremely intuitive, she's professional but personable. We would definitely refer Lisa to anyone in search of their own piece of paradise. Lori & Jeff Hastings

We met Lisa Oyama in 2005 and she helped us find investment property to build on. As years went by we decided not to build and Lisa then guided us through over 100 properties by sending us previews by Internet to eliminate properties that didn't fit our criteria. Then when we came on island she spent a week taking us to qualified properties gradually narrowing down to the final decision, a property she saved for last. The best part is that we have remained personal friends and will doubtless do more business in the future. Kerby Confer

In one word FANTASTIC. We consider ourselves very lucky to have had the good fortune to have met Lisa Oyama and Mark Harbison. My wife and I had been researching properties in Hawaii for a number of years and had visited Oahu a year prior, but had not found any suitable properties. The following year we visited Maui and contacted Lisa and Mark. It was a whirlwind week visiting property after property. We were at once impressed with their professionalism honesty, trust and willingness to walk (literally at times ) that extra mile. Long story short. By the end of the week, we had selected a few properties that we were impressed with and put in offers, the process of which, thanks to Mark’s help, guidance and knowledge was a breeze. After our offer was excepted Lisa and Mark continued to be there to answer all our questions and resolve any issues that arose. Keiko and I now consider Lisa and Mark to be our friends and on each trip to Maui always make sure to call and visit with them. We highly recommend Caldwell Banker Island Properties and in particular Lisa and Mark to any one that is looking for a well informed team to guide through the quagmire that can be property acquisition Frank & Keiko

We met Lisa Oyama when went to look at the house that we ended up purchasing. She was so knowledgeable and friendly, always helpful, and available to speak with us whenever we needed her. Our transaction went smoothly with respect and professionalism in every category. Anyone looking for a real estate agent would be lucky to have Lisa representing them.she is highly recommended.

I found Lisa Oyama online when I first started thinking about retiring to Maui. We worked together for over a month via email before I made my trip out to look with 'boots on the ground'. She showed me about a dozen properties in a day and a half, one of which suited perfectly. We made an offer which was accepted withing hours. I was under contract within 48 hours of my arrival on Maui! She listens so very well and as a result I was only shown properties that were likely to be of interest. An exceptional agent. A year later I used her to purchase a vacation rental investment condo with similar marvelous results. Mahalo Lisa! Stephen Kieffer

I highly recommend Mark Harbison for your next real estate agent. We worked with Mark on our recent condo purchase in Maui. He is very knowledgeable, very patient, and guided us through the whole process of looking at alternative properties, making and negotiating an offer, selecting financing, applying for a loan, and working through the details to closing. He was always available, returned calls promptly, never pressured us and provided excellent advice when asked. He communicated very quickly and effectively with the selling broker. I can't say enough positive about Mark and the relationship we had with him. Without a doubt, if there is any further real estate transactions we do in Hawaii, Mark will be our agent. Ralph Wilson

I have been working with Mark and Lisa for almost 4 years now, including the purchase of a home in February 2010 and subsequent viewings of other properties that I am considering. Both Mark and Lisa are very professional, and are very knowledgeable about the Maui real estate market. I have found them to be very responsive to my requests and a delight to work with. I highly recommend them to others. Denis

We are pleased and delighted to share our experiences with Lisa and Mark. They successfully helped us sell two family properties in Kihei over last 7 years. We worked primarily with Lisa, but we definitely benefited from Mark's involvement too. Working with them is a unique experience, because you have two professionals to rely on. The qualities Lisa and Mark we admired the most:1) articulate communications 2) immediate response 3) integrity 4) creative in problem solving (there are always problems with Escrow) 5) sincerity 6) knowledge of markets, other agents, and real estate craftsmen. Best of all, they were fun to work with. Robert Skip Sandberg
