What do Clients Say?

When my wife and I decided to list our home, I called the leading escrow company in town and asked the manager… “Who do you feel is the most, effective and successful broker in Kona, as well as the most organized with paper work?” Her comment was, “Having done many escrows with her… Gretchen Lambert would be on the top of my list.” We hired Gretchen to market our home, she worked tirelessly and professionally, and she got it sold in this very challenging real estate environment. I’ve been in real estate myself for over 20 years and I would highly recommend Gretchen to anyone who is interested in buying or selling real estate.

Tom & Amy Loratta - Kailua-Kona, HI

We are very grateful to Gretchen for the guidance she gave us during this most difficult housing market in decades.Her honest appraisal of the overall market, and our property’s place in it, allowed us to price our house ’spot on’. Due mainly to her house staging efforts, effective MLS listing presentation-including the best professional photos, marketing network, and ’super hustle’; the impossible was accomplished with a sale in just ONE day. From start to finish she demonstrated the very best professional and personal qualities I have seen in the Real Estate business. Gretchen was always available whenever we needed her. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

I wish to fully recommend Gretchen Lambeth to any buyer (or seller) contemplating a residential real estate transaction. Her knowledge, experience and timely communication ensured our recent purchase proceeded to completion. We were kept fully informed at all times and she established an excellent working relationship with the existing agent. I have been employed in real estate for over 35 years and have not come across a person who is more professional. Service and results is what really counts and Gretchen excels on both counts!!

Paul & Michelle Randell - Australia

I was a first time home buyer in a challenging economic time, but made it through smiling. It would not have been possible without Gretchen’s dedication and professionalism. Gretchen is outstanding at what she does. She welcomed me the first day and clearly explained to me what was going on in terms that I could understand. As the process continued, I always felt safe and well-represented with Gretchen by my side. I trusted her completely and knew that if I had any questions she would be there to answer and explain them to me. I soon learned that the home-buying process is not easy as unexpected obstacles fell in our way. However, Gretchen continued to help me find other ways to reach my goal even when I felt that my dream of home ownership was over. She never gave up and worked hard for me, always making me feel like I was her most important client. Gretchen was there fighting for lower prices and asking questions on my behalf until the signing day – I couldn’t have asked for a better agent!

Mari Taira - Waikoloa, HI

When we first met Gretchen it was clear that she would be the Realtor that would sell our house. We had experienced others without success but Gretchen’s marketing exposed us to a large amount of buyers. Her knowledge of the market positioned the property correctly so that all of the showings and Realtor caravans paid off and made the sale happen. Thanks Gretchen and Hawaiian Isle on making our dream of selling come true.
