Mike was recommended to us and we couldn't be happier. He knows his game. During the process he was in constant communication. He had a very easy platform to help you through the steps of purchasing your home. He worked hard and stayed with us through a unusually long underwriting process. Keeping the sellers as happy as they could be with delays from our underwriter and broker. We were able to get into our home and bring the price down at the right moments.
You can tell when professionals love what they do and this is true for Mike. We highly recommend him to represent you on your NextHome deal!

We have worked with Tanya on both the buying and selling side and she is world class. A consumate professional with a personality that exudes the aloha spirit. We will continue to work with TP on all future deals.
Tanya Powers did a excellent job selling our home within a week of listing … She is personable and kind to work with making the process less stressful… Tanya is one of the most respected agents on the island, and has many connections and teams to take care of all your home preparation needs. She explains the process and creates a timeline to keep things on track. We felt confident in her representing our family, home and community. The buyers felt supported as well with her clear communication and knowledge of the area, Tanya Powers is simply the best choice in buying or selling your home.

Tanya did a fantastic job helping me find a great home and selling my old home that she also found for me 10 years ago!
She met and exceeded my expectations, and I am so thankful for her.
Homeowner Dreams DO come true! I am so happy to have her in my corner!

Tanya has helped us purchase a condo in Waiulaula and a house in Kona, we could not be more pleased with her dedicated help and assistance, her knowledge of the housing market and her commitment to us, her client, has been nothing less than fantastic. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.

Tanya was recommended by a friend and from the first day we met her we knew she was the one.
We wanted to sell our house in Kona, but live on the mainland. We hadn’t ever sold a house and had some apprehension. But Tanya took us by the hand and guided us every step of the way. She is very professional and at the same time personable, friendly and kind.
We recommend her without hesitation.

We were interested in looking for a house in the Kona area and walked into the office and were greeted by Mike. He listened to our wants and needs and identified a few properties that would be suitable for us. We looked at several homes and Mikes knowledge of the market, as well as the products(the homes construction etc. was outstanding. We settled on purchasing a lovely home and Mike led and helped us through the entire purchase process. Mike is a very likeable person and a pleasure to work with. I recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell he has a wealth of real estate knowledge.

They say in Vegas, “Once in a while you get lucky. We got lucky when we found Mike Drutar.
After 30 years and 2 great careers in the PNW, my wife looked at me on a 12 degree morning last March and says, “I think we should move to Hawaii”.
She could have picked somewhere easy, Scottsdale, Palm Desert, Mars…… But no. The Big Island.
This was going to be an epic headache and more likely a major train wreck. Not just 3000 miles across the Pacific Ocean, but a whole different insurance structure (tax, health, home, auto, etc, etc), are not like the mainland.. Shipping our “life” in orange boxes, our vehicles and a German Shepard (that’s a whole chapter in itself). Why not Mars honey????
Fortunately for us, our real estate agent in the PNW turned us on to Mike. Big investments, Bit consequences - they can go either way. Donna and I spent 10 months getting our house sold and finding the right one in Hawaii. Mike was with us every step of the way. His insight, counsel, knowledge, and just great Aloha made it HAPPEN.
Our sincerest appreciation and gratitude for everything you did for us.
We are living our dream life thanks to you, on an island, in the Pacific.

I have known Walter for 25 years while living on the Big Island of Hawaii. He has always done an outstanding job both for me and the many clients I have referred to him. All of them have become lifelong friends and do all of their real estate sales and buying with him. He has a great knowledge of the market on the Big Island. He has a wonderful sparkling personality and does such a professional job for both buying and selling houses and condos on the Big Island. His slogan of "don't falter, call Walter" so aptly describes the great job he does for everyone. Once you use him, you won't want to consider any other real estate agent. He never tires of finding what you want if you are buying and if you are selling, he stages your place for open houses that makes it look so attractive. Walter always goes the extra mile in everything he does. l

We have always dreamed of moving to Hawaii. We found Mike Drutar's videos on YouTube and really found them not only informative but fun to watch. His detailed explanations of home craftsmanship, what to look for both good and bad helped us learn what we wanted and what we didn't want in a new home.
After months of watching his videos we felt like we knew Mike!!! So, when we decided to go on vacation on the Big Island of course we contacted him. Sadly, he was out of town while we were there but he made sure his partner, Tanya took amazing care of us! Tanya quickly picked up on what we needed, primarily dog friendly, and helped us find our home. It was the first home we looked at and she told us that it was a remarkable gem at an excellent price, we made an offer and I'm now sitting in paradise typing this review!
Mike was here to greet me when I arrived and gave me the keys, showed me around our new home. It was a bit like meeting an old friend after all the videos we watched.
Having only been here less than a week I can say this is the best decision we ever made and I'm so thankful we found those videos of Mike, he made it easy and his team made it all happen effortlessly.
Thank you.

My wife and I have bought and sold 4 properties with Walter Sinicki's assistance in the past 15 years. We will continue to seek Walter's assistance in the future for several reasons. He's a long-term relationship builder - he is not a one and done real estate agent. He anticipates that there will be all sorts of questions and issues that will arise during the buying and selling process, and he expects that he will need to assist his clients in answering those questions and resolving those issues. Finally, he's demonstrated over and over that he doesn't make commitments that he doesn't intend to keep. For us - trust is everything, and we trust Walter. Thomas Fearing and Dianne Bernert
I have had the pleasure of being a client of Cindy Whittemore who was the listing agent for my property located in Kailua Kona. Mrs. Whittemore demonstrated her commitment to providing a wealth of information and knowledge as we prepared to list my home. Her professionalism and personal commitment were clearly apparent as she conscientiously followed through with every endeavor. Her level of commitment and sense of responsibility are reflective of a gifted and talented agent. I am certain that Cindy’s friendly, approachable demeanor and her abounding knowledge and experience were instrumental in securing a contract swiftly with all parties happily in agreement. Her dedication to every aspect of her profession will ensure continued success in all of her endeavors.

My best friend passed away in Kona and as her executor I needed to take care of her estate. I live on the mainland and needed all the help I could get. Needing to sell my friend’s home, I turned to Tanya and who is absolutely marvelous. She is kind - she made sure my friend’s wishes were honored -and an honest and smart realtor. She even found a family to adopt my friend’s cat! She went over and above to get my friend’s house sold. She handled working with people from the mainland and she and her associates made sure everything worked smoothly and with integrity. Thank you, Tanya!

I’m glad Cindy was my realtor throughout the sale of my condo. Admittedly I was at a loss on what to do first. Luckily Cindy provided guidance on required procedures and always kept me updated at very turn. Her expertise contributed to a very quick sale and, best of all, minimal mental stress for me. Sincerely I recommend Cindy to anyone who needs a realtor. She is the best.

Whether it was a question about a particular area, an insightful observation or a key recommendation,Tanya was the best choice we could have made. Thank you Tanya for making our real estate dreams come true.

Tanya was a pleasure to work with. Her communication skills and her availability made us feel like a priority. In the 10 days we were in Kona she gave us an informational tour of the area, booked showings and actually found our dream “home” before we had to leave. She had referrals for all the other professionals we needed to complete our purchase. She orchestrated all of the necessary details through the end of a fast and successful escrow. Tanya even helped us purchase items we needed to furnish our new place since we were off island. We appreciated how punctual, knowledgeable and friendly Tanya is. We highly recommend her and if we ever have future Real Estate needs we are calling TANYA!
