REALTOR BROKER | LUXURY & INVESTMENT SPECIALIST | O'AHU | MAUI

My love of Hawai‘i began during a college trip in 1997. I made the leap from the Pacific Northwest to the serene beaches of O‘ahu’s North Shore two years later. In 1999, at the age of 26, I earned my real estate license and I have since enjoyed a diverse, rewarding career in Hawai'i's enthralling real estate market.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of guiding clients through an array of complex transactions: from subdividing and selling large vacant parcels of land, to collaborating on sales teams for high-rise developments—right up to penthouse level—and helping local families realize their dreams of buying plantation homes, reclaiming childhood spaces they played in as children.

My professional journey has honed both keen insight and broad expertise, and I’ve been honored to be nominated multiple times for the prestigious Aloha ‘Āina REALTOR® Award, which recognizes exceptional service and professionalism in Hawai‘i’s real-estate community. hicentral.com+1 In addition, I hold designations as an international sales agent and a luxury-homes specialist. I also manage a curated portfolio of Hawai‘i vacation homes and long-term rental properties across the islands.

Helping clients find their ideal Hawai‘i property is my passion. I take a highly personalized approach, emphasizing meticulous attention to detail and delivering the highest level of service. For investor clients, I offer full-scope support—from acquisition guidance to asset management and long-term oversight—ensuring each property works with purpose and performance.

Outside the office, I nurture a deep appreciation for art, design, and travel, and a newfound love of golf. I suppose I'm a "foodie", as my husband—a pilot—and I love cooking at home together in the kitchen. We seize every opportunity to explore Hawai‘i’s outdoors. You’ll often find us near the ocean, enjoying the island’s year-round, idyllic weather.

I chose Hawaii Life Real Estate Brokers for its smart, forward-thinking approach to business and its warm, welcoming culture—and I look forward to partnering with you to find your perfect Hawai‘i home while making the journey as enjoyable and seamless as possible.

Aloha,
Diana

What my clients are saying...

Diana Ricciuti is the best real estate agent I have ever dealt with, and I have been buying and selling homes for myself over ten times in the last 36 years. This includes housing in Utah, Kansas, Arizona, California and Hawaii as I moved for professional job growth and in retirement (I hold a Ph.D. in history and have worked in both the academic and museum fields). She has worked with me in both buying and selling of personal real estate.

Diana possesses the ability to work well with the people involved in real estate transactions including buyers, sellers, escrow and loan agents. When negotiating or trying to accomplish other things, she is diplomatic but firm and able to get all to work together, sometimes a big task with the number of individuals involved and in differing physical locations—an impressive talent. No problem is too big, and she is persistent in a timely manner.

She does not leave you waiting but is very responsive and supportive. I found that when I had a question she responded rapidly. Buying and selling can be a stressful and unpredictable business but you know she is on your side and will produce excellent results. She is a true professional and works with precision, skill, a great design sense such as in staging a home and with obvious pride in her work. Diana gets to know her client’s real estate needs and works tirelessly to accomplish their goal —helping her client to buy or sell real estate. Thank you.

Diana is easily the most responsive, professional and prepared rental agent I have ever used. Her enthusiasm and attention to detail have added a whole new level of comfort to my experience as an investment property owner. I would recommend her to anyone who is interested in renting their property, particularly those leaving Hawaii who need a trusted agent to act on their behalf.
