""We bought our first home in October 2008. Arn is a knowledgeable expert in real estate. We worked with Arn for several months, and we have been to more than 100 open houses. We think ourselves as picky buyers, who had a lot of requirements, and not easy to be satisfied, but Arn could always give us more insight about the local market especially during the economic down turn. Also, he has a lot of resources, connections, and friends, which really helped us through the whole home buying process. Our home buying experience could not be happier without Arn."

"Arn is a consummate professional. Linda and I have come to appreciate there are many aspects to this. He is a straight shooter, and we have complete confidence in his integrity. He is extremely skilled at communicating, preparing, presenting, and negotiating. But most important is that we always felt he was absolutely committed to finding and landing the right house for us. This time around (our 2nd purchase with Arn) we were demanding clients, with many requirements on our wish list that made it hard to find just the right house. During the process we both had moments of being frustrated, and during those times we relied on Arn’s steadiness, good humor and energy to carry us forward. Arn is very generous with his time and attention. If and when we outgrow on new house, we’re looking forward to working with Arn again."

"I have known Arn for over 10 years. I first met Arn with I purchased my first home, a condominium, and we have kept in contact over the years. I knew that when I was ready to purchase a new home, I would be using Arn. He always impressed me with his professionalism, knowledge and patience. He has a relaxed no pressure approach which I found most refreshing during my search for a new home. He provided me with countless listings via emails and provided numerous tours of selected homes and hunted down various listings. His patience and attitude provided me with peace of mind and time to find the ideal home in a challenging market."

"Arn has a very mellow demeanor but under that is a Type-A person who gets the job done sparing you the hassles and heartaches. Arn sold the house I had in partnership with an old friend who was getting married and moving out of the area. We gave Arn certain criteria that had to be met to satisfy both of our future needs. Arn came through in flying colors with such ease it didn’t seem to really occur. Next he went about to get my new home. He introduced me to a top-of-the-line financial officer to get pre-qualified so he could get me the best deal possible. Because of his efficiency, I was qualified for a loan, put in a bid on a wonderful house (it met all on my want list), and won out over the other offers in a span of one week! Who says there aren’t fairy tale happy endings any more. Arn will do his best for his clients, this I am sure of. He anticipates and knows the business inside out. You could not ask for more in an agent, Arn is the best."

"Arn excels at being a good listener who fairly represents his client. I credit him for being able to close the sale of my house in a short amount of time with little hassle and at a price I was happy with."

"Arn is a wonderful guy with a great personality, high integrity and good sense of humor. We've hired him to buy two houses and sell one and would definitely use him again. He knows the market and gets results. He is a hard worker and will find what you need for you, saving you a lot of time. We like Arn so much that he has become our good friend as well as our agent."
Dave Bingham Thu Apr 3, 2008
"Arn is honest and works extremely well with others. He keeps in touch with clients for many, many years. He is alert to the needs and wants of others, and keeps an even and good-natured disposition, no matter the situation. I highly recommend him!"
Lois Blank Thu Apr 3, 2008
"Arn is a rarity among real estate professionals: someone who has made real estate his career from day one. He takes his profession very seriously and that's why I refer to him when I run across someone who wants to buy or sell on the Peninsula. It has nothing at all to do with the sharing of a mai tai at sunset when he visits his home here on the Big Island...just kidding of course!"
