TESTIMONIALS

Mark and Florence Jenkins

Carl,
I just wanted to take the time to send you a letter telling you how much we appreciated working with you when you sold our house in Waikele. You were great from the start. Your honest assessment of what we were going to sell our house for, how long it would take, was right on the money. What really sold us was your honesty and enthusiasm. Carl, you certainly met every one of our expectations. You went the extra mile, Carl. Bottom line, I would recommend you to anyone who wishes to have a happy, but more important, successful experience with selling their home.

Virmary and I wanted to thank you Carl for the outstanding service that you provided for us during the way to ensure we were kept informed of every situation that arose. This instilled a level of trust and comfort that you do not get from an average Realtor.

In a word, Carl Higgins is WONDERFUL. Carl was recommended to me by my brother, Father Scot of St. Josephs Church in Hilo and his Father-in-law, a deacon and well known Realtor on the Hawaii Island. Exceptional reliability, integrity and dedication. Carl accomplished all he said he would do. He sold our Mililani property for more than we anticipated. Caring, knowledgeable, informative and helpful. Honesty and caring are just two more of Carl’s wonderful traits. He called me weekly to update me. In phone conversations with Carl the first word out of his mouth was “aloha”, the second words were always ‘How are you doing?... Because I was going through chemo and more this meant everything. Carl took the worries of selling a house long distance and made it easy, trouble free and a very happy experience.

To prospective home Buyers or Sellers,
If you are looking for a agent to help you in a search of a new home and not just a house, I can highly recommend Carl Higgins. I recently used Carl’s help in finding a new home on O’ahu. Carl demonstrated professionalism at every turn. Carl also did everything for us with a personal touch that my wife and I found very warm & sincere. My wife and I have purchased over ½ dozen homes all over the country and have been exposed to many real estate agents. I would have to rank the experience we had with Carl as our agent, as amongst the best. If you need an agent , a true professional and someone who enjoys their job, Carl is your man!

Linda and I just waned to put in writing what we have so often expressed, to others and to often enough you. You are a terrific Realtor, and we enormously appreciate the job you did for us this past year showing us properties and in locating and helping us acquire and settle into our new home in West Kawela Bay, North Shore-O’ahu. We have bought and sold 5 houses before this one. We have been shown properties by and done contracts with a lot of Realtors. I see a lot of Realtors in my law practice too. Also as providers of professional services, Linda and I know a bit what good service is and we have dealt with some very gifted Realtors including the one who referred us to you. Linda and I agree that we have never received such competent and professional real estate services as we did from you. You have an obvious deep regard for the truth. You are the best in our experience.
P.S. By Linda Palley : We loved your honest, efficient, informed and always helpful, excellent communication skills.

Aloha, Jody O’Brien

It gives great pleasure to write this memo of support and recommendation for Carl J. Higgins, Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty. Carl provides the most capable and professional service that anyone can find…anywhere. I was employed by University of Hawaii and a friend recommended Carl to me. I needed to sell my property quickly. The sale was not an easy one. The market was in a slump and there were complicated litigation issues with the association amongst other problems. Despite many challenges with this sale that would scare off most agents Carl rolled up his sleeves and took on the task with his ever-present smile and enthusiasm. It took some time before finding the right buyer but Carl was confident that we would prevail. He kept me informed on a regular basis and he was always accessible. As I worked with Carl, I found him to be honest, helpful, responsible, well organized, motivated and genuinely dedicated to his profession. He is very professional, intelligent and has complete mastery of his subject area. I learned to appreciate and respect his grasp of the real estate business and his ability to work with people. He is especially competent in organizing and facilitating several tasks at once. His personality motivates people and he is an excellent administrator. Carl’s reliability is unequivocal. I feel that he is an extremely qualified agent that can handle any situation. I submit my highest recommendation on his behalf.

Dear Carl, Karen and I wanted to express our gratitude for all of your assistance and expert knowledge in selling our home. From our first meeting and throughout closing of the house, you made us feel very comfortable and extremely confident that you were always looking out after our best interest. Your knowledge of the local housing market and professional demeanor, were instrumental in selling our home quickly, at a fantastic price, and with a great buyer. Selling a home is very stressful, but you took away much of the stress and my entire family thanks you for your total professionalism. You gave us great advise and your constant communication was truly appreciated.

Please accept this as our commendation to you of the Realtor services provided by Carl Higgins. Carl is a thoroughly professional, results-producing Realtor. He is obviously knowledgeable of the real estate market in Hawaii and, importantly to someone who doesn’t live in Hawaii, he kept us completely informed throughout the transactions. Carl handled for us a rather complex situation that comprised of three properties to be sold as part of an IRS 1031 Exchange. Carl arranged for us a facilitator, a Realtor contact in the area where we were going to acquire our replacement property; and, not least, he moved all the properties in a timely fashion to ensure the time criticality aspect of the 1031 exchange could be met. In short, he was involved in all aspects of our 1031 exchange, and we found it reassuring that he was. We feel very fortunate to have had a Realtor of Carl’s quality to handle our transactions n Hawaii. We are pleased to recommend him to serve you in any realty-related capacity.

I would highly recommend Carl Higgins for any real estate transaction you require! Over the forty years or so of military service and civilian government employment, we have bought and sold several homes. I have never had the attention to all details, complete dedication to getting the job done, and the overall customer service that I experienced with Carl. My job is in the hospitality area and customer service is a number one priority for me. I found it from the first meeting with Carl until our house was sold. He gave us great advise in what needed to be done to make our home one of those that sold quickly and for the price that we wanted. His experience and professionalism were paramount in our having the final outcome and in a very short period of time. We highly recommend Carl for any of your real estate needs.

Our purchase of a Beach front condo in Waialua, North Shore has been done through Carl Higgins. In all that had to be transacted from seller to the buyer, Carl has been at his best as a gentleman and as an agent. His phoning, texting, writing and personal conversations have been best handled by his immediate attention, with honesty, always integrity from himself and to us as clients. His knowledge of real estate transactions has been all that one could expect in making decisions and completing the intended business purposes. This letter of high commendation has not been solicited, in fact, was procured only by through my personal request!
