Mariners Place Buyer Testimonial

Mariners Place at Ocean Pointe

Brian Card, Ewa Beach, Hawaii

I had been promoted by the Army and assigned to Hawaii. I had no time to shop for properties as I was at Ft. Bragg, NC.  I met a firefighter on the island that was challenging himself to fulfill a goal. He succeeded and he's now the TV star you watch. Honestly David is a down to earth guy and  enjoys the thrill of the hunt for the customer more than anything. He knows if he takes care of that target the rewards follow.

You might find someone as good, but I doubt with all sincerity that you will find one better......

Mauna Luan Hawaii Kai Buyer Testimonial

Mauna Luan Condo View

Lolly Totero, New York, New York

As I look at the beautiful ocean view from my new apartment in the Mauna Luan, I would like to take this opportunity to commend David Buck for helping me make the dream of owning a second home in Hawaii a reality... I am a real estate broker in New York City, and I can spot great service no matter how many miles away.. Even though I have made a career selling real estate, I had never purchased anything outside of New York City... I learned that the process is quite different in Hawaii. I could not have completed the purchase without David's knowledge of the Honolulu market and his clear step-by-step instructions through the escrow period... I look forward to many hours in the sunshine thanks to David Buck! I will gladly refer future business to him.

It has been a true pleasure working with you over the past six months. In that short time you have assisted me in buying two properties in Waikiki and Palolo. In both cases your help has been invaluable. You are always prompt in returning calls, proactive in getting me information and punctual when it comes to appointments. In short, you're a true professional and I look forward to watching you grow within the Real Estate Industry.

It's refreshing to work with such an industrious, respectful and courteous young man. If I can ever be of assistance feel free to contact me and also consider me as a reference should the need arise.

Thanks for all your efforts and I look forward to working together again soon.

Peninsula Hawaii Kai Buyer Testimonial

Peninsula Hawaii Kai Vilas

Mike Judd, Big Island, Hawaii

I just purchased my first home at the Peninsula in Hawaii Kai. I didn't know anything about buying a home, so I wasn't really sure how to walk through the steps for the purchase. Dave was there for me the entire way. He made sure that I had everything needed and would always go the extra mile for me.

Diamond Head Home Seller Testimonial

3025 Diamond Head Road

Beth Bowlen Wallace, Denver, Colorado

I have had the pleasure of working with David Buck when selling my Diamond Head home. The house had a wonderful location and showed very well, however it was not your typical home and had a few challenges. The home was a one bedroom main house and one bedroom detached cottage, it had limited parking and was on a noisier part of the road. Despite some of the challenges David was able to not only represent me but also found the buyer, on the mainland no less! 

David handled himself in the most professional way in his representation. He was always available for my inquiries and calmed any anxiety I may have had during the selling process. He is a knowledgeable and very ethical professional. I admire his insight as well as his honesty in looking out for my best interest, a difficult thing to find in an agent today. I would highly recommend David to anyone looking to buy or sell. Needless to say my house closed with little problem and David has not only strengthen his relationship with me but also made a great new friend in the buyer:) David is not only a great agent he is a great friend and someone I will use again!
