“Sasha did so much for us throughout the home-buying process. From the beginning, she understood our family’s needs, and it was clear that she understood our personal style as well. After we found the perfect home, she helped us negotiate a good price, and was helpful and communicative throughout the buying process. My husband I still comment on how lucky we were to find her. I’ve never felt so comfortable and understood with a real estate professional before and would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”

“Jenny represented us in the sale of our condominium in the Makiki area of Honolulu in March/April 2017. We couldn’t have been more pleased with her services. She masterfully staged the unit, and after one open house we had four offers: two for more than asking price and one of those for cash. We closed about 6 weeks later. We had moved off Oahu, so during escrow Jenny kept in constant contact with us, took care of minor repairs to the unit, had us sign documents electronically which was very convenient. Her competence at every step in this process was extremely comforting to us since we were not physically present. She was everything one would want in a realtor: familiar with the market, on top of the myriad details, engaged in constant communication, and a thoroughly professional, friendly manner. We would recommend her services to anyone without reservation”

“I was truly satisfied with the experience I received from Sasha. Her professionalism was on point. The whole process was stressful for me and I am glad she was a part of this process. From the beginning, reviewing the home, making recommendations, planning the timing,the scheduling, mishaps in between, staging our home. I was extremely impressed with the staging of the home for viewing. Great job and highly recommend her. Thank you so much”

“Working with Sasha, Jenny and Elite was a perfect experience, my wife and I are happy with our new home and the service provided by the Elite Pacific properties, again Sasha and Jenny were magnificent!”

“Jenny is incredibly knowledgeable and thinks outside of the box. She understands your needs when it comes to purchasing a home and is able to relay market information with ease and simplicity. If I ever had a question or concern, she solved the problem in a way that gave me clarity and ease of mind. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home in Hawaii!!”

“It is a blessing to have Sasha to be our realtor. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to either sell or buy a house. She is so professional respectful and honest. She explains or updates consistently any aspect of informations that is beneficial to the client. She works hard to get what you need to answer any questions. Our house was put on sale for a short time only and will help you get your house sold following the guidelines and timelines of selling process.
She is knowledgeable for what she does. Lucky to have her for we sold our house within a reasonable price.”

“We would fully recommend Sasha Capone! Her knowledge of Oahu, professionalism and aloha spirit helped us find the perfect home at the right price! With low inventory, Sasha and her partner, Jenny Kono found a home for us that was not yet listed and negotiated until the deal was complete!”

“Sasha helped me find my dream home. She was professional, efficient, and excellent at what she does. She really took care of us and went above and beyond her role to make sure we were satisfied with our home purchase.

We would highly recommend Sasha to anyone looking for a realtor. If you want a professional, efficient and extremely warming home purchase experience, Sasha is your agent!”

“Very personable, easy to do business with and very proactive during the entire process. She kept us in the loop at every turn. Sasha also went out of her way to take care of the smallest details like our mail. This may seem insignificant but we relocated out of state during this process and our wonderful USPS didn’t catch all of mail to forward. Sasha didn’t need to forward any of it but took the time out to be sure we got them. It is difficult to measure Local Knowledge because there are real estate tools that will “view” comparable properties in the area but being a local she had the knowledge to manage the sale. In regard to Negotiation Skills, normally this is done between real estate agents and as a seller we are not directly involved in the direct discussion so we had to trust that she managed this process well. Although this review is for Sasha, I’d like to note that she had a co-worker, Jenny Kono, who was involved and assisted Sasha in the sale of our home. They work extremely well together.”

“Jenny has become a trusted resource due to her impeccable communication, commitment to service, and vast experience and knowledge of the local real estate market with a deep rolodex of property owners, agents, and lenders.

Jenny has since passed on valuable leads of properties coming on the market, and advised against other properties I’ve inquired about due to undisclosed local knowledge regarding the property or neighborhood.

She has become my first call regarding any real estate inquiry on Oahu, and if she can’t answer the question immediately, she knows exactly whom to contact or point me towards to get the best answer.”

“Having worked with Sasha and Jenny these past five years has been great! They were extremely accommodating as we only rented our house out in Kailua when we traveled during school breaks, usually three or four times a year. Even though we didn’t rent all year round, they were always customer service oriented. Sasha and Jenny made it super easy for us only to take the inquiries we received throughout the year that fit into our schedule. Communication was consistent and clear. We enjoyed working with them as they cared to have nice renters in our home, scheduled the cleaners, took care of check-in and check-out, and anything that might arise during the stay. I would highly recommend working with Sasha and Jenny!”

“I have worked with Jenny and Sasha for three years now; they were our agents for us when we rented our house in Kailua for the times we weren’t using it. They were both incredible – very professional, extremely nice, and ethical. They took care of all of the booking and checkin/checkout procedures. They vetted the people who used our house and I was surprised at how very few problems we had with renters. They worked very well with our caretaker, and were always careful to look out for us. I have never worked with agents who have been this good and I very highly recommend them.”

“This letter is a letter of reference for Jenny Kono and Sasha Capone.

We owned a home in Lanikai, Hawaii for several years and while we didn’t want to rent it for the first couple of years, we considered it afterward and decided to discuss the opportunity with Jenny and Sasha. We were concerned about the process and whether or not our home would be subject to damage or wear with challenging guests. Jenny and Sasha explained the entire process, the profile of likely renter, our ability to stipulate the type of guests we would consider and our ability to decline any interested guests should we feel the need to do so. They also explained how the home would be treated, cleaning process, marketed, etc. Based upon the discussion with Jenny and Sasha, we decided to rent our home with them and Elite Pacific Properties.

After several years, my wife and I are very pleased with how this has all turned out. We rented our home for several years and the process worked great. The home did not experience any damage, the minor issues with some stains were easily taken care of by the cleaners and the financial value to us has been quite satisfactory.
In short, Jenny and Sasha are both a pleasure to work with, were very responsive to all of our questions and communications, showed our home with the utmost care and professionalism, and supported our guests with great customer service such that everyone who stayed at our home had a very enjoyable time.
We would enthusiastically recommend them should you be considering renting your home for vacation guests.”

“Jenny is amazing! She takes the best care of my Luxury Property and consistently makes me a great deal of rental income. I would not trust anyone else in the business. She is the best!”

“October, 2023. The perfect spot to celebrate the joining of two wonderful families. So many memories! We will be back!”

“October 2023. We had a wonderful time at your home. Very beautiful and you took care of our every need. Can’t think of a better place to bring our family.”

“From booking to check-in, the team at Elite Pacific was extremely accommodating, professional and responsive. We requested for tables and chairs for my children’s home schooling needs and they were ready and set up by the time we arrived. Coordinating with the team during our month long stay was very easy and made our Hawaiian vacation super enjoyable. We will definitely book with Elite Pacific again! ”

“Our stay at the Royal Kailua Estate was beyond expectation! By far the best house, best beach, and great personnel to work with. I couldn’t ask for anything better. We were also very impressed with the prompt service of the onsite staff. Any issues that arose were resolved quickly and promptly by the onsite staff. We look forward to our future bookings with you! ”

“We are only too happy to share our experience with Jenny Kono. She handled our accommodations in Hawaii for quite a few years with nary a hitch. We found her to be professional, prompt and dependable, which is more than I can say for others we’ve dealt with. It was sad to see her go, but with a new baby we could understand. We especially appreciated her honesty and forthrightness, both of which can be in short supply in the Hawaii market. We will no doubt use her again in the future and heartily recommend her.”

“We worked with Jenny Kono last summer to plan an intimate dream wedding at the Ali’i Beach Estate, and a dream it was. The property was perfection and Jenny was phenomenal to work with. She responded to our flurry of questions, catered to our last minute requests and was always a delight. Jenny also helped us coordinate rooms for our out of town guests at the Diamond Head Beach Hotel and they all enjoyed their stay. While we are in Seattle, we have family in Hawaii and have already spread the word about Jenny. We also wouldn’t hesitate wot stay with you guys again when we come visit. :)”
