Jennifer is definitely the best real estate professional we have ever worked with. She managed the sale of one property for us, and quickly found a larger property that is perfect for our extended family, all while dealing with the constraints of a 1031 exchange. Jennifer was immediately responsive to our questions and requests, and went above and beyond what was expected to make sure we were comfortable with the process. We highly recommend Jennifer to anyone selling and/or purchasing real estate.

Jennifer did an absolutely phenomenal job selling my Kona home! Every step was done in a professional, quality manner and her communication skills are excellent. I always knew what was going on and she was a lot of fun to work with too! I'd rate her higher but five stars in the max allowed :)

Jennifer has been amazing to work with. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable of all things real estate in Hawaii, and her deep knowledge of The Big Island, but she is all about going the extra mile to help with everything from movers to contractors and everything in between. Jennifer is a pleasure to work with and we are extremely thankful for her and her team. I highly recommend Jennifer!

Jennifer not only sold us our condo, but got it all done and closed with-in 30 days! She always kept the communication going and answered all of my questions. I appreciated how nice and asses able she was and now hope that I can call her and her husband our friends.

Jennifer knows her stuff! She provided excellent advice from the beginning to the end of the buying process. I was overseas the entire time and Jennifer made it easy to view properties (virtually) and then to navigate the sometimes daunting escrow process. Her generosity on closing was an extra special touch that she brings to the entire experience. Jennifer was very easy to work with and I would recommend her over and over again.

Jennifer Rice was amazing from the beginning of looking at homes (which started nearly 2 years ago) through the entire process. At every turn, she was an advocate and friend. Coming from California, it was difficult to be present for all the necessary events/inspections/etc; however, Jennifer was there representing me. From video chatting and doing touring homes, to arranging reports, the process was easy and I love, love, love my new home. I could not give her a better recommendation! Mahalo Nui Loa. Greg

A little over 3 years ago we arrived to Big Island with a dream of one day calling it home. We are excited that this dream is now a reality and we owe this to Jennifer Rice. Jennifer is a knowledgable realtor with a long family history of Hawaii, she took us under her wings and helped ensure we found the right home. We had lots to learn regarding the terrain of this Island and Jennifer was there every step of the way!

Jennifer persevered on a difficult property and helped us work through a couple of challenging issues after escrow was opened, and, as a result, we were able to complete the transaction. Very pleasant dealing with her.

Jennifer is great, she made buying our home amazingly easy. We are currently in living in the SF Bay Area, so we weren't able to be there all the time. Everything was electronic and painless. Jennifer is a delight and made this transaction easy. While we were house hunting, she was accommodating , knowledgeable and honest. We will definitely use her expertise again if we were to purchase another property in Kona.
Jennifer was a great agent for us. She showed us houses within our budget, but also humored us by showing us houses above our budget so we could get an idea of what we would want out o f a remodel should we choose a cheaper house. She didn't consider that a waste of her time. She was always responsive and helpful, contacting relevant people if needed or providing additional requested information. I'll use her again in the future when we upgrade to a bigger house.

Jennifer handled the sale of our home in Captain Cook like a true professional. We loved her attitude right from the start and chose her after interviewing three realtors. We were impressed with her marketing of the house, especially the professional photos.

We would recommend Jennifer to handle all your real estate transactions.

Jennifer was great! She was patient as we decided on the right house for our budget and family. When we made the decision, Jenn worked to make the transaction as hassle free as possible. We had a great experience with her and will go with her again when the time comes!

I am a licensed Realtor on the mainland in California and I was referred to Jennifer by a colleague of mine. My family chose her to list our home in Captain Cook, HI. Jennifer was great during the entire transaction and made sure we closed on time. We had some hiccups with the appraisal, but she made sure that it was resolved and all was okay. Thank you Jennifer for your great service and I hope to work with you again soon!

Warmest Regards,

Jennifer was everything we could have wanted in the search for our new home in Kailua-Kona. She listened to us about our needs and wants and responded with a most appropriate list of choices. She was also extremely helpful, honest, and sensitive in answering our questions about making such a big move. She was unfailingly prompt and prepared every step of the way.
