"I believe that we were very fortunate to have Joan as our realtor when we were selling our house. Joan is the first realtor that we have ever worked with. She was very thorough in walking us through the home selling process. She was very detailed in preparing our house for sale to include professional pictures and staging. She staged our place beautifully and tastefully which I believe helped the quick sale of the house. Although, we moved out of state before the house sold, she consistently keep us updated as to any offers, issues etc. We had ultimate trust in Joan as we left our house in her care. Joan's extensive knowledge of the Hawaiian market ensured that we received a fair offer for our house. Joan was timely and professional with all transactions and we appreciate all that she did for us. "

"After going through a purchase of a house, I found myself on the other end as a seller. Joan Esperas was there for me again. She gave me time to get settled into my new house so that I could focus on making my townhouse ready to be listed. As soon as I told her it was ready, she worked her magic by staging my property and getting a flyer ready for open house. I was so impressed! In fact, I would've put in an offer if I was looking for a townhouse. I had to show all my family and friends the flyer too. Once it was listed, there was a great amount of interest and I accepted an offer about a week or two later. "

""We've only been in Hawaii for 2 years since relocating from Guam, so you can imagine how skeptical and uneasy we felt about what we were getting ourselves into. There's much we needed to research and know, we weren't sure of how and where to begin. Fortunately we had the opportunity to meet up with Joan, who had given us a better understanding by walking us thru the buying process and answering all our questions. We knew from the start that she was the right person for us and it was a pleasure working with her. She has made the experience of purchasing our "First Home" very memorable."

  -Marquez/Galvez (Mililani-Buyer), Client

"Joan was an awesome realtor! We wanted to find our first home and did not know where to start. She was very patient throughout the whole process. She often responded to us and met with us past business hours. She showed us many properties until we found the property that felt like home. In the very competitive Mililani market, Joan knew exactly how to offer on our property. The whole process was very smooth and I believe it was because of her extensive experience. I would highly recommend her to any family or friends."

  -Costa (Mililani Mauka-Buyer), Client

"Joan is a delight and she knows her stuff!  She made the transition from selling one property to buying another one seamless.  We would happily recommend her again and again!"

  -Walker (Kapolei-Buyer/Mililani Seller), Client

"I sincerely feel that Joan was the BEST realtor I could have had! Not only was she always courteous, friendly, and helpful, she was always available to me via phone, email and text. Her communication skills and professionalism were excellent and I always felt that I was in good hands with Joan. She was very knowledgeable and gave experienced guidance throughout the whole process, even referring service providers who were professional and did a fantastic job at what they did. The process of selling my home was seamless and went by very quickly. I only had one open house, I had 4 offers within the first two days following the open house. This was all because Joan not only worked hard to stage my home with her own furniture & decor, but she was very savvy with her computer skills and made professional quality photos, flyers, e-flyers and even a youtube video! Everything went very smoothly and the next thing I knew, I had closed. I am definitely referring her to all my family, friends! "

  -Shiosaki (Mililani Mauka-Seller), Client

"Joan is wonderful, she made our home search and purchase a breeze.  Moving from South Korea, on short notice, meant that we communicated mostly by email and had only one day on Oahu to actually look at houses in person.  Joan took the time to drive us around to view houses on different parts of the island and her knowledge of the local communities made a stressful time, relaxed and enjoyable.  ?Once we chose a house, Joan assisted us every step of the way, again as a long distance transaction.  She sent us additional information on our new community and kept us informed of what was happening with our purchase.  Everything was on-time and we were able to move right in once we finally arrived in Hawaii to stay.  We are extremely happy with the assistance Joan provided and will definitely call upon her in the future. "

  -Aicher (Kapolei-Buyer), Client

"A truly outstanding selling experience. Joan provide what I felt was absolute premier support. Even prior to our committing to listing the house with her, she came over several times to walk through the house providing excellent suggestion on preparing the house, from paint selection for the interior walls, identifying numerous items to upgrade. As I viewed the photos that Joan had posted for the listing I was astonished that our house showed that well. It looked phenomenal. The staging Joan performed accented every positive aspect of our home. In addition to the staging of the house Joan created a stunning portfolio addressing all the features of the home. As we walked through our home the day we signed I could see that it was Joan’s marketing of our house the produced the quick sale at above asking price. Joan provided us with frequent status updates throughout the complete process. Joan is the epitome of "Professional Realtor" & friend."

  -Campbell (Mililani Mauka-Seller), Client

"Joan has done a terrific job in following up on all issues with the selling of my property from beginning to end.  Her vast knowledge and experience coupled with her dependability assured my trust in her to represent me well and look after my interests."

  -Okutani (Aiea_Seller), Client

  -Jensen (Makakilo-Buyer), Client

"Joan is a realtor that is with you every step of the way through the home buying process. She made our home-buying experience as pleasant and as easy as possible. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home. She is a true professional and great person to work with."

  -Lancaster (Mililani-Buyer), Client

"Joan has been a cheerful and informative agent. She was prompt in scheduling viewings for homes that we wished to look at. We were looking long distance, so her being able to arrange viewings in a compact week helped us to see all of the homes during a visit.  She was most valuable in putting in the offer, deciding on a fair offer price based on the recent sales of the area, and negotiating with the seller's agent to get our offer considered.  Joan kept in touch with us thru the entire process, even during the closing, when we were out of state.  When we finally were able to move into the house, several months after closing, she paid us a visit to ensure we had settled in well.  I would highly recommend Joan, as she is very responsive to our questions and is prompt in her communications."

  -Hutchins (Wahiawa-Buyer), Client

"We are very grateful to Joan and Janis for all their hard work in selling our home.  From the moment we put the house on the market to the close of escrow we had their continuous support.  They staged our home using their own home decor and made it look beautiful.  In addition, handled inspections, responsive to our various questions, and was able to get multiple offers over our asking price.  Overall, Joan and Janis went above and beyond in selling our house, and would ask them again to be our real estate agents. "

  -Cherland (Mililani-Seller), Client

"Joan was by our side throughout the entire process, from seeing how much we were qualified for, too giving us the keys and turning the electricity on. All of her decisions had our best interest at heart. Her advice was never biased, always truthful and very professional. When we decide to sell or purchase another home, we will definitely call Joan. We always recommend her to our friends and family for all of their realtor needs."

  -Flores (Mililani Mauka-Seller), Client

  -Ruiz (Royal Kunia-Buyer), Client

  -Suzuki (Mililani Mauka-Seller), Client

"Though Joan has always kept a very professional relationship with us during the sale of our home, she also made us feel that she opened her heart up to us during a would be stressful time in selling our home. She would always take that extra step to comfort us during the most craziest of times. Joan provided amazing assistance in prepping our house for sale. She went above and beyond our expectations by even bringing in her own staging items for the entire house. She did get our house sold extremely fast. Faster than we expected. Joan was excellent in meeting all our deadlines and was always there when we needed help. She was always in contact with us and kept us abreast of all aspects of the process. There was never a time when she was not available. Even at night! Joan was very professional in handling the negotiations with the buyer, even when the requests got a little crazy, Joan always kept our best interests in mind and always found a way to satisfy our needs."

  -Hashimoto (Mililani Mauka-Seller), Client

"Joan assisted us with the sale of our home from start to end! Prior to putting our house on the market, Joan visited our home and gave recommendations on what repairs and upgrades would make our home more marketable. We had to move before all of the repairs could be completed. Thankfully Joan kept an eye on the repairs and kept in constant communication with the service providers and us. Once all the repairs were completed, Joan staged our home, took beautiful photographs and sent them to us along with a draft listing for us to review. We couldn't believe our eyes! Our house looked and sounded so amazing we almost jumped back on a plane to cancel the sale of our home. While our house was on the market Joan regularly updated us with private viewings, open houses, and other potential offers. Once we received an offer, we knew it was official. Joan made the process so easy and smooth. After escrow closed, Joan mailed us a closing binder...along with our favorite snacks from Hawai'i! "

  -Izon (Mililani Mauka-Seller), Client

"Joan was my agent when buying my town home in Mililani. Joan took the time to really listen to my needs and my budget, taking me to several open houses, we were able to narrow down what I really wanted and what price range. Joan let me know about all the homes I was looking for on the market along with scheduling viewings around my crazy work schedule. When I found a home I loved, she got a viewing in no time and an offer. We closed in record time! When I moved in, I found out that the fridge had broken in the process of the sale, Joan was SOOOO nice and bought a new refrigerator! Along with that I wanted to do some add ons and paint and she sent me ideas, recommendations for contractors and everything. I recommend her to all my family and friends, she’s awesome!"

  -Menard (Mililani-Buyer), Client

" Joan helped my husband & I purchase a condo in Mililani. She worked with us endlessly for over a year to find the right-perfect home. We live in Louisiana now, but spent 15 years on Oahu. My retirement dream is to move back to the island for good one day. We have a daughter and grandsons that live in Mililani, where I spend two months a year with them. Joan sent me listings daily and when we thought we liked a place, she would take our daughter to see it. They would video a tour of the condo.We finally found one that seemed perfect and were scheduled to be on the island for two weeks. Joan set up a visit of the condo and worked tirelessly to get our bid accepted. We returned to Louisiana and Joan ensured every thing was done on time. When I had questions she answered my question in a manner that was easy to understand. My husband and I felt she had our best interest in all of the transaction from the bid to the closing. She continues to provide assistance during renovation."

  -Menard (Mililani-Buyer), Client

"Joan was patient and helpful as I searched for my first home. She made me very comfortable throughout the process. "

  -Jackson (Mililani Mauka-Buyer), Client

"Joan was very helpful in the sale of our home. Not only giving us advice and guidance, she communicated with our HOA and worked with Sunrun Solar in getting the lease transferred to the new owners. We were off island during the process of the sale and Joan with the escrow and title agency guided us through the online procedures of closing, eliminating much stress that can go along in buying and selling real estate. We could not be happier with Joan and her real estate abilities."

  -Crosswhite (Ewa Beach-Seller), Client

"From the beginning, Joan was always there to walk us through the process of buying a house. It all started with a very helpful packet of information with a flow map and checklist of the process. I really liked the personal touch of including a cover letter with a picture of us when submitting our offer for the house we were interested in. Constant communication through phone, email, or text also made me feel at ease; especially since we were dealing with a large transaction. I appreciated the way she always looked out for our best interest whenever she had to communicate with the seller's agent or our loan officer. Joan was great at giving helpful advice or suggestions and we always took that into consideration when making our decisions. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants a realtor who is efficient and reliable. "

  -Kawamura (Mililani Mauka-Buyer), Client

"Joan is very knowledgable in her field, the current market, staged our home to desperate it from the competition, and assisted in adding extra's to sweeten the deal in a very competitive market. She has sold a home for us and assisted us with 2 other homes. All three experiences were exceptional!"

  -Hale (Mililani-Seller), Client

"We were renting and wanted to purchase a home of our own. We were new to Hawaii and did not know the area very well. Joan was great from the onset. We discussed the type of house and the areas we were interested in. She put in a lot of time and effort into showing us a variety of homes in the areas and price range that we wanted. Joan took the time to explain each step in the process of home buying. She explained the mortgage process and financing. She took us through each step of the large amount of paperwork required right up to the closing. With her help and advice we were able to purchase a home in the resort community of Hoakalei in Ewa Beach. Joan was very interested in what we wanted and extremely helpful and always answered our questions. She was not only interested in selling us a house, she wanted to sell us a home that we would be comfortable in and enjoy. After the closing she still stays in contact with us keeping us informed about real estate status in our area."

  -Teets (Hoakalei-Buyer), Client

"Joan has been both my sellers agent and my buyers agent. She has helped me to sell property and buy two in a span of 10 years. She’s truly a professional and very detail oriented. She’s extremely kind, patient, and understanding. Joan walks through each process with me in every transaction. The best part of her is her authenticity in her customer service and she stills keeps in touch with me to make sure I’m happy and that I am satisfied. She also provides various information relating to the do’s and don'ts of home owners. Joan is truly an exceptional realtor."

  -Crosswhite/Yu (Mililani-Buyer), Client

"Joan helped us a lot in obtaining this property. Even when this property seemed to slip through our fingers, Joan kept going in finding us the perfect home. This property was actually very elusive for us. It always seemed like we were not going to be able to get this property. Joan had to go and ask the sellers 3 times before we finally got a deal going. She even threw in a year of home warranty for us. Given the hardships we had in getting this home, Joan had worked hard to quickly put an offer in when there was an opportunity. She stayed on top of it until we finally got the deal going. Beyond that, Joan kept on top of all the deadlines and requirements necessary to not lose the house. Joan worked through the tough dealings with the sellers agents when they started getting very stubborn. Even at the end, when the finances seemed impossible, Joan came through and through in one of her own points to help us out."

  -Hashimoto (Mililani Mauka-Buyer), Client

"Joan is an amazing realtor. We were first time buyers and were very nervous buying in Hawai'i, however Joan made it as smooth as possible for us, and went above and beyond her job description. She is very caring, and really wants the best for her clients. I would love to see her recognized for all of her hard work. "

  -Nguyen (Kapolei-Buyer), Client

"Excellent at what she does. She went above and beyond for us. Everything was perfect."
