Testimonials

In my lifetime, I have purchased ten homes, some as investments but more than half of them for my personal residence. In my latest purchase, I found myself in an unusual situation. I wasn’t really thinking of moving, but a home came on the market that I had had my eyes on for a long time. It was what I thought of as my dream home. With Kimmy’s help, the owner accepted my contingent offer. There was, however, a timeline to get my current home under contract. It was looking like that was not going to work out.  We had spent a fair amount of time together, and as Kimmy got to know me, she was able to distill my lifestyle choices, sources of pleasure in my environment, and sense of style. One day, Kimmy called and said she had seen a home that could be a good backup plan for me should I not be able to meet the contract date. It was, in fact, my true dream home.

In my lifetime, I have purchased ten homes, some as investments but more than half of them for my personal residence. In my latest purchase, I found myself in an unusual situation. I wasn’t really thinking of moving, but a home came on the market that I had had my eyes on for a long time. It was what I thought of as my dream home. With Kimmy’s help, the owner accepted my contingent offer. There was, however, a timeline to get my current home under contract. It was looking like that was not going to work out.  We had spent a fair amount of time together, and as Kimmy got to know me, she was able to distill my lifestyle choices, sources of pleasure in my environment, and sense of style. One day, Kimmy called and said she had seen a home that could be a good backup plan for me should I not be able to meet the contract date. It was, in fact, my true dream home. She made sure to point out all the good things about the home and also the challenges and things that may need some work. When I decided to move ahead with the home Kimmy found, she worked with me to come up with an offer that was accepted by the seller and walked me through all of the steps towards closing.  Kimmy’s negotiating style is firm but gracious. The seller's realtor found her easy to work with, and I believe this helped me to get a better purchase price. If you are looking to buy a home, I highly recommend Kimmy Brooke. She will guide you to the home that feels like you should have been living in your whole life. 

I have worked with many agents both in Hawai’i and on the mainland and never have I experienced the level of excellence of service as that provided by Kimmy Brooke. From her first look at my home to closure she was available to answer questions, explain processes and documents, and keep me calm through the chaos of selling and moving.  Kimmy’s service included things I never would have dreamed a realtor would, or could do. She wanted my house to look its absolute best in a difficult market. That in mind, she went through my house, selected what items should stay for staging, and then helped me pack up and move out everything else. I gave her carte blanche in her choices. She was graceful in suggesting what had to be put away and in replacing things that looked a little too much like me rather than more “model home.” We strategized together on pricing, her marketing plan, and negotiatio…

She wanted my house to look its absolute best in a difficult market.

She was graceful in suggesting what had to be put away and in replacing things that looked a little too much like me rather than more “model home.” We strategized together on pricing, her marketing plan, and negotiations with potential buyers. She aggressively marketed my home through a variety of channels, ranging from traditional ads and open houses to personal calls, letters, and social media. Selling a beloved home can be a trying experience. Kimmy’s grace,  charming personality, and sales acumen eased the process. I would highly recommend Kimmy as a realtor.
