"Cheryl is the BEST relator I have ever worked with. I remember when we were looking at one property and an old client of hers walked by and shouted "BEST REALTOR EVA'!". When I first heard the enthusiastic compliment, I thought "No realtor is that good. They are all pretty much the same". Cheryl is THAT GOOD! She had a great touch of politely providing input (positive or negative) about a property without out being rude or sounding like a used car salesman. She was ALWAYS available and had a high attention to detail. Cheryl felt like a family member watching out for our every interest and desire instead of a realtor. Whether we wanted to look at an affordable condo or an expensive home, she was always by our side wanting to make sure that we bought what was right for us. During times of frustration with such a competitive housing market, Cheryl would always encourage us and say "Everything always works out and you will find the home you want. It always works out". It really did work out for us and I can't credit Cheryl enough. I find that most realtors play a passive role representing the buyer, just waiting for their commission. During the home inspection period, Cheryl did so much work to look at every aspect of the home, I thought she was trying to talk us out of buying the house! Of course, she just wanted to make sure we would be happy. And we are very happy! Thank you so much to Cheryl. "BEST REALTOR EVA'!""

"Cheryl Nekota, R is a talented realtor and has sold three properties for our family to date. When we first met, she made an initial impression of being a hard worker, knowledgeable, and easy to get along with. We chose her from the many realtors we spoke with because she was the only one that researched our property, gathered comps, and presented them to us upon our first meeting.
For each of our sales, Cheryl knew what it took to increase the value of each property and helped us plan and coordinate the improvements. We could have sold each as is, but instead, with her suggested improvements, we have made more from each sale. Her staging is another talent that makes buyers feel like they are walking into a home and not just a house when they come to an open house or view the property online through a 3D virtual tour.
We have been recommending Cheryl Nekota, R to everyone we know and look forward to working with her on another sale in the future. I hope in reading this, you will consider meeting with Cheryl and giving her the opportunity to share with you her ideas on your sale (or purchase) like we did many years ago and become a satisfied and grateful repeat customer like us."

"Cheryl was professional from day one. I knew I could trust her just by her demeanor. My property needed a full makeover and Cheryl arranged everything to make it look appealing and it came out great! My property went on the market right before Covid-19 started to spread. When the market changed due to the pandemic, Cheryl acted quickly and made a virtual tour of the property. I believe that helped the property to be noticed by many potential buyers than just photos or appointments. She gave me updates on how the pandemic is affecting the market and helped me understand the situation we're in better. She had hand sanitizers and clorox wipes during open houses and I think that helped the buyer to feel at ease during this pandemic. This was my first time selling my property and Cheryl has made the process as smooth as it can get especially during this unprecedented time. I would highly recommend having her as your realtor."

"Cheryl Nekota is an excellent real estate broker. She went above and beyond in providing guidance on getting our property ready for sale. She met with the rental tenants as our representative to explain the process of having them move out and removing all of their property and cleaning up as they had a lot of debris. She gave them information on other rentals in the area to help with their transition. She helped us secure the property by getting someone to install a fence and gate around the premises. She spent time in meeting with us to explain the sales process and answering our many questions. She was always very patient and would return our calls immediately. She continued to update us regularly on the interest in the property and expedited the sale. My husband and I were extremely satisfied with her real estate expertise, professionalism, hard work, patience and dedication to the job in getting a positive and quick outcome for the sale of our property. We would recommend her to others looking to buying or selling property. In summary, she is very easy to work with because she is excellent in all aspects of her job!"

"Cheryl Nekota was my agent that assisted me in purchasing the home that I sold, so I was already acquainted with her. When I considered selling my home, I immediately contacted Cheryl. There was no other broker/ agent that I would have chosen, as her work ethic is unmatched. Cheryl Nekota understood my intent and she executed them flawlessly. During the process, I had my personal doubts about whether my home would sell because the market was beginning to be saturated with similar style properties for sale. I had all of the confidence in Cheryl's ability to get it done. She reassured me that we would sell, and she delivered. I would highly recommend Cheryl Nekota to everyone that is in the market to buy or sell a home. She is pleasant to work with, very knowledgeable of the market, and has many years of experience.
Thank you Cheryl for hard work, passion for your job, and the wonderful experience in selling my home. Whenever I decide to purchase again, I will choose you to be my broker/ agent."

"Cheryl goes above and beyond the usual duties and expectation of a real estate agent. She spends a lot of her time and money taking care of staging and any issues that arise. She has many contacts such as contractors, flooring, paint, plumbing, etc, that are available which is a huge advantage when trying to time the listing and sale of real estate. Every contact Cheryl has referred has been a top notch provider.
Our family trusts her to protect our interests and do the best to get the best results for us, which is why we’ve called on her services 4 times in the last 12 years! Cheryl is patient and she listens. She takes the time to understand the wants and needs of your situation and doesn’t push just to make a sale. She helps find you a home that you will be happy to live in. She’s helped sell two of our properties and knows her market well. She takes the time to talk to vendors, contractors, agents, and potential buyers to see if what we’re selling is a right fit.
Cheryl is organized. She has a lot of knowledge of the entire process from prepping and staging, to pricing, to escrow and closing. I would recommend Cheryl one hundred times over!"

"Who could ask for more. Cheryl Nekota, R, delivered service above and beyond the call of her duties. Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Advantage Realty of Honolulu should be very proud of Cheryl.
Cheryl Nekota fully understood what had to be completed to the property prior to advertising it on the market so she made recommendations to increase the value of the property and furnished the approximate cost for each repair or replacement, along with providing an expert to do the jobs at minimal costs, if need be.
Even while I was on the mainland for a week, Cheryl Nekota kept in contact through email and forwarded documents that had to be reviewed and signed through Docu-Sign. I even discussed certain items by telephone, where she took the time to completely explain them.
Cheryl Nekota, R, will be the first person to come to my mind if asked by relatives or friends, for a professional, understanding and easy to work with Realtor."

"After meeting Cheryl Nekota, R who received a recommendation from a mutual friend, Cheryl made her presentation as to how she would present our property for sale in such a professional manner. Her background, experience and local flavor sold us immediately. She was such a breath of fresh air after dealing with our past broker. We all agreed that she was the main reason the sale of this property was a success.
Working with Cheryl Nekota,R was like dealing with a member of our family. We would contact her whenever a question arose without hesitation."

"I bought my condo about 8 years ago with Cheryl's help, she was amazing then and she's still incredibly awesome and knowledgeable now. She helped me sell my condo and also helped me find a great, beautiful home for my growing family.
Always staying on top of things and answering any question I may have.
It was one of the fastest, smoothest sales I've been involved in or heard of, it was great.
I have friends, relatives and acquaintances that are realtors, yet I would never choose them over Cheryl. She's everything from above and more, I've always been happy and at peace while working with her.
Great communication.
Everything was so fast and smooth without any hiccups, just outstanding."
