We were in a bind, getting kicked out of our old house, and in desperate need of finding a place quick. You saved us from a scary situation by your willingness to work long hours evenings and weekends to ensure that we were able to find a home in the short time we had.
I know we made your job even more difficult by limiting your house search options to specific neighborhoods and school districts, but because of your hard work we were able to keep our kids in the school we wanted and even find a home with easy access to playgrounds, parks, and recreation centers. Thank you for your patience and clear explanations of the maze of documents and legal jargon as you guided us through the process of buying our first home. One of the things that surprised us most was your commitment to us even after you got us into our home. You continue to provide us with updates on our potential house value, community information and opportunities available to us. We tell all our friends that if they are looking to buy a house they need to call Jean. We will definitely contact you again when we are ready to trade up to a new home, or if we decide to look for investment property.

The time you spent explaining every detail of the transactions to us in a manner that made it clear, we greatly appreciate it! We know that you will continue to help us with future transactions…

…You were very patient with me while we looked through dozens of homes trying to find the one that had that “wow” factor. Your best help, though, came after we found the house and had to negotiate the price and terms for purchase. You were right on when you projected the value of the house even though it was considerably below asking price. You represented us well and it was appreciated.

When you worked for me, you took care of me as a friend more than a customer. I loved the feeling of doing business with you! And the knowledge you have really made me not have any worries…You are totally dependable. We will keep our business relationship for the long haul!

- Claudia Tong

Your professionalism, commitment, and reliability were evident from the very moment we met you and were furthermore defined as time went on. This home was our 4th home purchase and although we would not consider ourselves “veterans,” we feel confident in saying that we know a good thing when we see it…and having Jean Howard as our realtor was a great thing!

Jean really took the time to show as many properties as I wanted until I was happy with my decision. Jean kept me informed on a regular basis about the property I was interested in buying. Jean is very professional and knowledgeable about the business.

- Davis Nguyen

It was great to have Jean as our realtor. We encountered a few realtors before coming into contact with Jean, yielding no results. Our previous realtors showed us a number of places which were either unaffordable or in poor neighborhoods. Having Jean as our realtor was fulfilling. She was very friendly and professional. She showed us places in our price range and neighborhoods we wanted to live in. Her ability to get our offer accepted and into escrow was prompt and efficient. In no time we were living in our first home we could call ours.

Jean’s attentiveness can only be compared to our having a daughter represent us. Nothing was overlooked and OUR interests were paramount.

I cannot find the words to express my appreciation for the high level of service you have provided to my family and me.

I will not hesitate to recommend you to my family and friends for their real estate needs. I will definitely ask you for your service for my family’s future real estate investments.

Jean Sakai Howard was highly recommended by our loan officer and friend. She gained our full trust when she helped us realize our first out-of-state real estate investment. The long distance transactions went smoothly because she promptly communicated pertinent information by phone, fax, email/mail. She provided us with a very personalized serviced that we would not think twice of referring her to our friends, family and people who are looking for a high quality realtor.

Jean Sakai Howard represented us in buying property in Honolulu, Hawaii. During the entire process, we found Jean to be professional, honest and extremely hard working. We were very fortunate to have Jean as our agent and we highly recommend her.

I was very delighted to get your professional help when I bought two condos recently. You are not only friendly and informative, but you definitely go above and beyond with your attention to detail! You put me at ease with your patience and you seem to have limitless energy. I would definitely recommend you to any of my friends in need of a real estate agent.
