The Big Island offers some of the most exceptional real estate in the world, near perfect weather, and endless recreational and cultural attractions. So whether you desire the sophisticated city life of Kailua-Kona or Hilo, the inviting waters and majestic views of the Kohala coastline, the serenity of country living found in North Kohala, the plantation simplicity of the Hamakua coast, the “off the grid” havens found in Puna or Kau — the grandeur and colorful tapestry of the Island of Hawai'i artfully unites extraordinary homes with extraordinary lives.

The Bay Area (more fully, the San Francisco Bay Area), is a geographically diverse and extensive metropolitan region that is home to over 7 million inhabitants. Once a focus of Spanish missions and Gold Rush prospectors, the Bay Area is best known now for its lifestyle and high-tech industry.

Our East Bay, Tri-Valley is made up of the three valleys from which it takes its name: Amador Valley, Livermore Valley and San Ramon Valley. The region is well known for its Mediterranean climate, wine region, hist oric downtown areas, vast business districts and fine dining. Each city has its own personality and unique offerings to local residents. This area draws both visitors and residents from across the globe. Thus, creating a busy and thriving real estate market.
