What Customers Are Saying…

Here at First Island Realty, we strive to do our best for you, but don’t take our word for it – here’s what some of our customers are saying about us:

I can’t say enough about Laure. She knows her stuff like nobody else. If you are looking for a property on the Big Island, she is definitely your go-to person. She guided us to an outstanding and knowledgeable source to aid us in obtaining a USDA Rural Loan. Without the referral she provided, it would have been impossible to make our home purchase a reality. We arrived on island in January to look at the property we eventually purchased and she treated us like we were special buyers…always there to answer questions and chauffeur us all the way down to the “Southernmost City in the United States” (Naalehu) and all the while providing a narrative of Island customs, wildlife and flora. TWO THUMBS UP!!

Highly recommend. Very easy to work with and she knows the island well. We used lava Laura to buy a house in the Kona area. Always on time and was quick to follow up.

We have never met Laure in person, but we soon found her to be a very trust-worthy person. We purchased a piece of land remotely (from mainland) and she was very responsive and addressed all our concerns. She handled the transaction with expertise and professionalism. She also did her best to minimize our worries. We would definitely recommend her to our friends.

Laure McElwee is a very professional real estate agent. She is very knowledgeable of the island and works well to help her clients. I highly recommend “lava Laure” for all your real estate needs.

Laure goes above and beyond expectation. She is extremely professional and caring. She puts her heart into her job to deliver exceptional service and client satisfaction. I will always be grateful to Laure for helping my daughter and I find our perfect home in a distressed and turbulent market, she made it smooth sailing for us!!! Thanks Laure!!!
