As a child, I thought for some reason that people could be either a ballerina or a baseball player when they grew up. Given these limited career choices and being a little girl who loved all things pink, I decided I would have to be a ballerina. Well, things didn’t work out that way as I eventually realized ballet was probably not for me and the world was wide open and I could be anything I wanted to be. Little did I know my natural strengths and inclinations would lead me to helping people achieve their real estate goals in one of the most beautiful places in the world.
So how did I get here? I was adopted from Korea and raised by a loving family in Minnesota who embraced me in all ways and gave me the chance for a life with possibility and opportunity. Snow and Cold were the operative words in MN for much of every year and I always dreamed of visiting a warm, tropical paradise. A 2-week vacation to Maui planted the seed to move to here and I am so blessed and fortunate to call Maui home now.
Experiencing the highest levels of success throughout earlier days of telemarketing and retail sales to corporate account sales, my life's path has been guided through my desire to be of service to others. Thoroughly understanding my clients’ wants and needs, providing excellent and personalized service, and delivering exceptional results are at the core of my service and built the foundation for success in helping others. It was a natural move for me into real estate. As a genuine people-person, I quickly found meaning in what I do and a passion for helping people fulfill their dreams and goals in selling and buying Maui real estate. There is no better feeling than when clients tell me, “You changed our lives!” or “You went way above and beyond” and I know they are thrilled with both my services and their real estate transaction.
Curious to hear from someone who has been privy to my real estate career, I recently asked a close colleague what they think makes me a good Realtor and they said, “You’re honest, a great negotiator and meticulous, you’re personable and enjoy helping people, and you’re a good listener and figure out what people really want. Your clients trust you.”
In addition to being a Maui Realtor, my Hawaii Life includes lots of hiking, traveling, a healthy lifestyle and enjoying the great outdoors, reading, sunsets, and a good Mai Tai. Whether your Hawaii Life involves selling or buying, I’m honored to offer you my enthusiasm for success, extensive market and industry expertise, and uncompromising service in representing your best interests with your Maui real estate.
What Jennifer's Clients Have to Say:
"It is with great confidence that we recommend Jennifer's real estate services. We went through a sale and a purchase in the same year and had an excellent experience. Jennifer is a true professional, highly organized and detail-oriented in every correspondence. She looked after our best interest and relentlessly followed up on our behalf to get the end results we needed. She has an accurate read on the market and gave us fair and helpful advice along the way. We would not hesitate to enlist her expertise again if need be. Endless mahalo Jennifer for all your relentless and hard work." Jojo and Eliza V.
"Jennifer- Mahalo nui loa Thank you from the heart! We really appreciate everything you’ve done for us. All your time and effort to help us achieve this great home. We really feel we had an awesome realtor. Thanks so much Jennifer." Wendy and Andy G.
"I am a physician and as such, require precision and timeliness not only in my line of work, but also in my business dealings. I recently bought a beautiful home on Maui. I am presently in Florida and was here during the entire sale and escrow process for that house. I am thoroughly convinced that if it wasn't for Jennifer's hard work, her determination to get things done, and her unwillingness to accept substandard progress, this deal would never have gone through. She kept me notified with phone calls and emails. She was extremely thorough but also very concise and to the point. My questions were answered quickly and correctly. Her knowledge and intuition helped save us time and money. Her connections on the island to others who could help with the process were always helpful. Even though I was 6,000 miles away, I never felt any concern nor did I worry about the sale because Jennifer was there. I definitely would not have bought the house nor realized what a great deaI I made if it weren't for her. So, to anyone interested in acquiring property on Maui, I would strongly, without any reservation, recommend Jennifer. Suffice it to say, she's the best!!" Gene B., M.D.
"Thank you for finding us the perfect home. Without you, we would still be looking! Your knowledge of what was out there and your negotiating got us a condo we had dreamed of!" Jason and Christina W.
"I recently purchased my first home and I could not have asked for a more patient, resourceful realtor. When I was looking for someone to help my with my purchase I didn’t know what I was looking for. I knew Jennifer was the realtor for me from the first email response I got from her. She answered questions I didn’t know I had and was able to make everything easy for me to understand. She was extremely timely and available for any of my needs. Jennifer is incredibly knowledgeable in her field and I never second guessed her. I would recommend her to anyone and I will absolutely have her as my realtor should I ever be looking to purchase again. Thank you for everything Jennifer!" Caitlin M.
"During a recent trip to Maui we found a condominium we really loved for a vacation home/rental. We met Jennifer McCoy as the listing agent for another condo in the same complex. We were impressed with how knowledgeable and helpful she was and immediately enlisted her assistance to make an offer on the condo we were interested in. Luckily, a subsequent offer was accepted and we managed to sign papers while we were still in Maui. Jennifer helped us taking care of numerous things we couldn’t do from our residence in California. She was diligent keeping in touch with us via e-mails and telephone calls. She guided us through loan acquisition, worked with the on-site management company, a phone installation, furniture delivery, drapery company, and a handyman to name a few. She even shopped for us when the condo management company requested additional bedding, kitchen utensils, and etc. She continued to provide assistance well after the sale was recorded. We were very fortunate to select the perfect and best agent to handle our real estate transaction in Maui." Mike and Kim S.
“Thank you so much Jennifer! This was not always the easiest process, but that was never because of you. You were always consistent, professional, calming and just an awesome partner in getting this done.” Matt F.
"One of the most stressful events is the selling of a home. With great trepidation we began our process by searching for a realtor who we connected with and who had our best interests at hand. Good fortune brought us to Jennifer. She really listened to us and understood what our needs were. She is well versed in the legalities and processes of real estate. She took the stressors out of the equation and provided us with such a positive experience. You have a gem working with your agency and from the bottom of our hearts we thank you." John and Cheryl M.
"Jennifer recently handled two separate real estate transactions for us---The sale of a home in Kahana Ridge and the purchase of an OceanFront Condo. Throughout the process for both units Jennifer was never less than a true joy to deal with. She offers a unique blend of professionalism and being totally at ease with the people that she deals with. We would strongly recommend her for any pending real estate matter as she will make it a positive and most rewarding experience." Doug and Cindy B.
"Hope this email finds you well. Thanks for taking such good care of Matt and Michelle for us. They could not have been more complementary of you. You really are one of the best." Patrick and Zoe C.
"Thank you for being a friend and for all you did." Alice G.
"We feel that Jennifer was absolutely instrumental in the purchase of our dream home on Maui. Being seven thousand miles away on the east coast seemed a logistical nightmare, but with Jennifer's help it seemed all we had to do was dot the Is and cross the Ts. She handled our deal, from putting in an offer on a house just off the market (probably to be rented), took care of the home inspection (very happy with the inspector she picked), and also kept an eye on the property during the escrow period. Jennifer kept us constantly informed and up to date and made sure there were no unforeseen bumps in the road to closing. In the end we got to Maui and didn’t even have to go to closing, Jennifer met us at the house (OUR HOUSE) and handed us his and hers keys to our new home." Barry and Sally W.
