Moving anywhere can be a difficult challenge. But relocating from the mainland to the Big Island of Hawaii can seem daunting! We were so lucky to have Laure as a referral from our friends! She made the process so easy and even helped me with the documentation for my dogs to move! Laure knows Kona like the back of her hand, she is quick with areas to show you, and responds to all calls and texts immediately. She has made us feel so completely welcomed to the islands, it feels like home already. If you’re even thinking about a move to paradise, call Laure for sure!
Laure is fantastic! We literally called her two weeks before our visit from California and she had 15 homes ready for viewing! She stack ranked the homes based on our preferences; and sure enough the first was a dream! We closed on a beautiful home 45 days after our arrival to the Big Island! A Big Mahalo to Laure McElwee
