Tanya Sunshine
REALTOR BROKER, CIPS, GREEN, E-PRO, SRS, ABRWith over 15 years of experience as a full-time Realtor-Broker, I provide skilled representation for Buyers and Sellers across Hawai‘i Island. I specialize in all types of real estate, from residential homes and luxury estates to farms, land, and investment properties. I am also the go-to expert for navigating KSBE agricultural leasehold transactions—a highly complex process where experience matters.
I take pride in creating value for my clients—helping Buyers secure the best deals and Sellers maximize their return. With strong negotiation skills, diligence, and persistence, I don’t just facilitate transactions—I ensure they close. My expertise, knowledge, and unwavering commitment allow me to anticipate challenges and find solutions, making the process smooth and successful for my clients.
Having lived on Hawai‘i Island for nearly 30 years, I bring a familiarity with its diverse climates, communities, and unique real estate landscape. Every area offers something distinct, and I understand the importance of matching the right property to each client’s needs—whether it’s for lifestyle, investment, or long-term legacy. I approach my work with cultural sensitivity and a deep respect for the land and people, ensuring that every transaction is handled with care and transparency.
When I’m not working, you’ll find me singing, gardening, cooking, enjoying the beach, supporting local businesses, and spending time with my three rescue dogs.
My clients know me as a dedicated, results-driven professional who listens, acts with integrity, and delivers. If you're looking for an agent who is experienced, and committed to your success, I’d love to help you achieve your real estate goals.

What my clients are saying...
Tanya was an absolute pleasure to work with in securing our first Hawaiian home. She was patient with us over many months of house-hunting, especially since we were off-island and managing our search remotely. She ultimately found us a diamond-in-the-rough in a great neighborhood in Captain Cook that was both remote and convenient. She went the extra mile to find us dependable local service people, and to coordinate with the water district which could only set up a new account in-person. We wouldn't have been able to relocate without her expert guidance.
Tanya did a great job helping us find the right place and guiding us through the home-buying process. She knows the Island and she knows the market. And she's really fun to work with! We'll turn to Tanya the next time we are in the market, and will enthusiastically recommend her to others.
