Helped me buy home

Sue Jo has gone above and beyond any expectations we ever had for a realtor. She was so knowledgeable about the homes in the area. The stock of homes on the market was so limited, so she set up appointments with homes that were not currently showing just so we could get an idea of the different layouts of the various homes in the area. We only had 10 days for our house hunting trip and we didn't expect to walk away with a contract during this short time frame. We looked at several homes on our first day and decided to put an offer on our potential dream home. She knew exactly what we should offer to give us the best shot at getting the contract accepted. She did her research on the sellers and their preferences and helped us draft an offer that they just couldn't refuse. We won the contract! She also set up both the home inspection and AC inspections while we were still on our house hunting trip. She anticipated every question we had and immediately contacted whoever she needed to for answers. She is also very quick to respond to any texts and emails. She stayed in contact with us every step of the way reminding us to sign documents and relaying and explaining everything related to the contract. She was quick to act in our best interest and inquire about things that she wanted clarification about from the sellers. We also wanted to make some renovations before moving into the home. She set up contractor estimates with several different companies to get us quality workmanship at a great price. Her background in art and graphic design has made it so easy to trust her judgement when helping us pick out our paint colors and flooring. She is making herself available to let the contractors into our home to complete the work.To top it all off Sue Jo is meeting us at the airport so that our children can get a proper Hawaiian greeting for their first time on the island. Like I said, she has really gone above and beyond her expected duties and seems to truly enjoy helping us get everything we want and need. She had made this traditionally stressful process a breeze. I couldn't say enough great things about Sue Jo!

Sue is the absolute best. Not only is she super knowledgeable about the real estate market in Hawaii, she’s also super thoughtful and genuine. Sue helped us to buy our first home. We were so nervous but Sue was so patient and made a scary process actually enjoyable. A couple of years later, Sue helped us to sell our first home for above asking price!! She has a great eye for design and I have no doubt that it was her staging that helped our home to sell above asking. We are so thankful that we met Sue.

Sue Jo is hands down the best ever. Five stars isn’t enough. She was recommended by a friend of mine and I will be forever grateful. Sue Jo helped me with my first house purchase. She was always responsive, and really great at explaining the details. She knows this business inside out, and she cares about her clients. That combination makes her amazing at her job.

Sue is a truly fantastic realtor with an unparalleled work ethic and compassion--she listens and truly cares about her clients needs.

Hi Sue! She is the best. Sue was recommended to me by a family friend. Everything but praise from him for Sue. She was not our first realtor and I could tell by far that she was the best. Sue made sure that we get the best fit for our budget and specially for our family. It only took her a little less than 2 weeks to put us on escrow! Everything worked out for us because of her. She made it so seem so easy and effortless, tho I’m far away and my wife is also first time homeowner. And she never missed a phone call! Lol that is very impressive. She made sure that we understood every line item on our documents, took her time to explain everything. Additionally, she never pushed us to do something that would just benefit herself, it was all about my family getting the best deal with this current market. Thank you so much Sue, this review is not even close of how great of a realtor she is. Please do yourself a favor and have Sue as your realtor for your future home ???? ??????????

If you are looking for a realtor on Oahu, stop your search! You won’t find better than Sue Jo at Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate.As first time home-buyers and living off-island, we needed a realtor with local market insight and one willing to guide us through the process. Sue over-delivered in both aspects as she toured across the island to show us homes virtually and was always quick to answer our novice questions via call, text or email. When it comes to finding the right home, Sue really takes her time to understand her client’s needs and tastes in order to find the right property, never pushing for a quick sale which other agents had attempted. She is very diligent in preparation and review of documents, sent and received, throughout the purchase process and will explain complex contract jargon to ensure her client is comfortable before signing. The seller imposed some tight deadlines in our close schedule but Sue was unfazed and found top professionals for our inspection at short notice. Sue is passionate about her work and, whilst leaving no stone unturned to get her clients the best deal or smoothest close, she always acts ethically and professionally. We would highly recommend Sue Jo and look forward to working with her again in the future!

It was such a sigh of relief to work with someone as competent and caring as SUE Jo. In all of my experience working with a realtor both buying and selling, we have never worked with such a wonderful and knowledgeable agent who knows both the market and their client. It was evident in all that she did throughout our entire homebuying process. She made my wife and I feel so comfortable and at ease with all the nuances of of realtor stuff that we did not understand. More importantly, she did not once hesitate to answer any of our questions no matter how small or big it was. She definitely is a committed and dedicated advocate for you as a buying client. I can only imagine if you are a seller as well. SUE Jo was always readily available regardless of what the issue was. She put 100% effort as if it was her own issue at hand. She never made us feel as if we were not important to her. She truly made us feel special as a client. A major bonus and testament to her character as a committed agents, was that even when we thought we were done after buying a home, she was still with us- providing assistance for us from contacts and contractors to follow up questions after the fact. As a newly transplanted family into Hawaii from the mainland it was very scary at first to navigate, but she helped us bridge that gap and took the time to show and teach us of the surrounding area and cultural nuances. Ultimately, I highly recommend SUE Jo to anyone if you want someone committed to stand by you and understand and meet your needs while giving you the best value and appreciation as a customer, whether you’re buying or selling. She is truly a genuine, caring and compassionate at what she does.

I am a repeat client of Sue’s. She helped me sell my condo in town in 2018. Her undeniable service-minded attention to detail in the local housing market allowed a smooth purchase of my home in Aiea. It felt like a miracle to find the home that I wanted in today’s market. Sue’s calm yet passionate demeanor reassured me of every step in the process. We all know buying an older home can be nerve racking; but Sue knew who to contact, when to contact them, and kept me informed throughout. I always highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a responsive and attentive real estate agent that 100% has your interest at heart.

Sue made everything so easy to understand and kept on top of things so I didn’t have to stress even when I went on vacation in the middle of the home buying process. She is very professional, knowledgeable, and can be tough when you need her to be! I had a wonderful experience and if I ever have the opportunity to make another purchase, she would be my first choice!

My wife and I knew from the beginning this would come to a glorious ending! Sue Jo displayed her excellent skills with relentless pursuit! I would strongly recommend Sue Jo to either the first time home buyer or the avid property reseller. She put us in our new home in less than 30 days! Amazing!!
