What clients are saying about Judy
★★★★★
“Judy helped us purchase a home in a very hot seller’s market. She did not pressure us in making any decisions, in fact, she cautioned us against moving too quickly. That being said, when we decided to make an offer on a house she took the bull by the horns as was able to process the offer and get it out that same day! She is a go-getter. If we had another realtor we might still be looking for a home.”– Bryan C. 10/2021

“Judy is our realtor for the sale of our 40-acre lot in Waikoekoe. What looked to be a straightforward sale has been visited by one glitch after another, and Judy has met every one of them with equanimity, clear analysis of what needs to be done, great organization, and resourcefulness. Thanks to her knowledge of the law as well as real estate, I am always sure that things are being done properly, including her keeping her roles of realtor and lawyer separate to avoid possible conflict of interest.
Because she is so much a part of the community, Judy has a wide acquaintance with the people who can get work done for our property–photographers for the listing, ranchers to graze down the overgrown lot so people can see it, plumbers to install water lines to make the lot more valuable, surveyors to get timely and accurate staking […] Judy has dealt with every obstacle efficiently without losing her cool. I have remarked frequently on her ability to analyze and organize, and she does it all with good energy and good cheer!
I can highly recommend Judy Howard as a realtor who has integrity, great organizational skills, and a network of people to get the job done well.”

“Judy was such a pleasure to work with; she’s incredibly savvy, being both a lawyer and a realtor, and so charming, I think it’s possible she knows everyone in Waimea. Not only did she help us find our dream property in an area we would have never have discovered on our own, but she also helped us through the whole process and helped us negotiate a better price. I would work with her again and again and would certainly recommend her services.” — Leilani E. 7/2021

“Thank you for helping us with our recent transaction . . .. I was initially reluctant in entering into a dual agency agreement. However, you helped to ease my concerns through your professionalism, articulated explanations, and straightforward nature.

Stating it simply, our transactions were ‘Challenging’. In the end, It was your positive attitude and your undying willingness to make it work that proved to close the deal. I truly appreciated your time, efforts and tireless work . . . to make this process smooth and quick! “—W.L., investor, 7/19

“Judy Howard is fantastic! She was super responsive and patient with everything. Her experience, knowledge, and attention to details helped warn us of potential problems. She definitely was in our corner. I would not dream of doing a property deal on Hawaii without her. Ohh! and she is a very very nice lady.” –04/16/2018 – motoboer

“For several years, my wife and I have been interested in buying property on the Big Island with our eventual return to Hawai’i in mind. We have asked Judy for guidance on Big Island real estate several times over the last five years. Judy has lived and worked on the Big Island for most of her life and her familiarity with the various island communities combined with her knowledge of the practical, business, and legal aspects of life there has made her advice indispensable. She has a knack for getting to the heart of the matter that has really made our search efficient and enjoyable— dgivens348 2017
