After interviewing agents referred to me by Coldwell Banker's Relocation Department over the phone, it became overwhelmingly obvious to me that Mavis Nellas would be the agent to sell my home. Hiring someone via a phone interview was a little unnerving, but it turned out to be one of my best decisions ever. Mavis is extremely personable and upbeat. She possesses a can-do attitude, resourcefulness, high energy level, intelligence, work ethic, professionalism, and dedication to customer service that I have yet to see, all in one person, during my entire business career. Until now. Her responsiveness to my every concern throughout the sales process was astonishing quick, and productive. I wanted an agent with reliable market knowledge, negotiating expertise, strategic thinking skills, and integrity. Mavis has all those attributes and more. Because I travel and am out of town often, Mavis…

After interviewing agents referred to me by Coldwell Banker's Relocation Department over the phone, it became overwhelmingly obvious to me that Mavis Nellas would be the agent to sell my home. Hiring someone via a phone interview was a little unnerving, but it turned out to be one of my best decisions ever. Mavis is extremely personable and upbeat. She possesses a can-do attitude, resourcefulness, high energy level, intelligence, work ethic, professionalism, and dedication to customer service that I have yet to see, all in one person, during my entire business career. Until now. Her responsiveness to my every concern throughout the sales process was astonishing quick, and productive. I wanted an agent with reliable market knowledge, negotiating expertise, strategic thinking skills, and integrity. Mavis has all those attributes and more. Because I travel and am out of town often, Mavis managed a multitude of other issues such as staging my home, ordering a new, hard-to find lockset and hiring a locksmith to install it, meeting with movers at the property to obtain quotes, and the sale of furniture and personal items I no longer need. She even offered to pack for me! Despite difficult market conditions and other challenges, Mavis delivered above and beyond my high standards for service and results, never once wavering in enthusiasm. I feel extremely fortunate to have been represented by Mavis in my real estate transaction, and would recommend her to everyone who is interested in a seamless transaction, great results, and working with a real gem of a person and is SIMPLY AN AMAZING INDIVIDUAL!

I would like to take the time to thank you for your assistance in the recent selling of my former condominium apartment and the buying of my new single-family house. Please allow this to serve as a letter of high recommendation to future prospective clients. Your wide knowledge of various neighborhoods on Oahu was helpful in finding the right place to move. We indicated what our needs were and you were able to show us the range of choices available to us in a straight-forward manner. Your common sense approach and intuitive grasp of our unstated preferences made finding our new house much easier. The depth of your knowledge did not end in the real estate market but extended to the business community in general. Your suggestions and recommendations on businesses to fulfill our needs was extremely helpful and no-nonsense. In fact, it is likely that over the course of the two and half mon…

I would like to take the time to thank you for your assistance in the recent selling of my former condominium apartment and the buying of my new single-family house. Please allow this to serve as a letter of high recommendation to future prospective clients. Your wide knowledge of various neighborhoods on Oahu was helpful in finding the right place to move. We indicated what our needs were and you were able to show us the range of choices available to us in a straight-forward manner. Your common sense approach and intuitive grasp of our unstated preferences made finding our new house much easier. The depth of your knowledge did not end in the real estate market but extended to the business community in general. Your suggestions and recommendations on businesses to fulfill our needs was extremely helpful and no-nonsense. In fact, it is likely that over the course of the two and half months from putting our condo on the market and closing on our new house, I called average about 5 times a day and you either answered the call or called back within the hour. As we went through the process of buying the new house, you also had a tremendous wealth of information regarding home improvement and advice on avoiding pitfalls on renovations of existing homes. When the closing of the condo occurred early and the closing of the house was extended a few days, you were able to assist in temporary accommodations for us. This was way above the call of duty and very much appreciated to lessen major stress of the situation. Your recommendations on trades people have been very helpful since we moved in as well. Unlike my previous agent experience, I definitely felt like we were taken care of by you and Kahala Associates. I highly recommend you and intend to call on your for all my future real estate needs.

My wife and I are writing this letter to thank our real estate agent, Mavis Nellas for helping us with the purchase of our new home and with the sale of our previous home. We would also like to acknowledge and recognize the fact that without Mavis and all the effort and hard work that she put in, this would not have been possible. We have known Mavis for a long time and she has been helping us for a few years in looking for a new home. She would constantly update us with any new real estate listings and would frequently keep in touch with us even during the periods when we were not actively looking. When we finally decided on a property, Mavis was instrumental in making sure the transaction and transition went as smooth as possible. Her efforts made it possible for us to secure and eventually acquire the house. She made sure we were prepared for and were fully informed of the details o…

We have known Mavis for a long time and she has been helping us for a few years in looking for a new home. She would constantly update us with any new real estate listings and would frequently keep in touch with us even during the periods when we were not actively looking. When we finally decided on a property, Mavis was instrumental in making sure the transaction and transition went as smooth as possible. Her efforts made it possible for us to secure and eventually acquire the house. She made sure we were prepared for and were fully informed of the details of the process and took care of every aspect of the process during and after. The same can be said during the sale of our previous home. Her efforts and hard work were instrumental in making the sale of our previous home possible. She went above and beyond her duties and made sure every detail was considered and accounted for up to the completion of the sale. We feel very fortunate for having Mavis as our real estate agent and we thank her again for everything that she has done for us. We would gladly recommend her to anybody who would be considering being in the market for a new home or considering selling one.

I am an active duty military member notified of mandatory relocation with only 30 days notice. I contacted Mavis right away and she immediately helped me out. She did more than I could have ever expected to help get my home ready to sell. Since I had already left the island, she got all inspections done, cleaning, repairs and staged it for showing. Her efforts and hard work are what made my house sell the first day on the market. Being in the military is stressful enough, knowing that we have people like Mavis that will drop everything and help you out when put in a situation like this, is really inspiring. Mavis is a lifesaver and is trustworthy, knowledgeable, thorough, truthful, efficient, and has immense integrity. Thank you, Mavis!
