"This was our second sale with Jaymes and Team Song. After experiencing Team Song's excellent work on the first sale, we really didn't consider working with anyone else on the second sale. Jaymes has a deep understanding of the local market and his team is organized and diligent. Most importantly, Jaymes is a very skilled negotiator which results in the highest possible sales price. He literally pays for himself. Five Stars!"

"Jaymes Song was very patient and responsive throughout the process of purchasing our new home. We put our search briefly on hold during COVID and did not feel pressured at all by Jaymes to resume. Once we restarted our search, Jaymes was always available whenever we wanted to schedule a private showing or had a question. We also greatly valued Jaymes' knowledge of the local real estate market and common inspection/condo disclosures, which took out a lot of stress and time to do our own research. We are extremely happy with our new home and highly recommend Team Song!"

Recommendation
"During a period of great uncertainty with the pandemic, Jaymes and Ginger were able to give us expert recommendations on an optimal plan to sell our property. The timing, pricing, staging and marketing strategies were all spot on. The showing of our property was done virtually and put it in the best light possible. Most of all, while they provided the subject matter guidance, they went about it in a way that was not pushy. The service was client-centric where we felt our needs and interests were of the highest priority. We have been through a number of real estate transactions, and this was by far the best experience. We highly recommend the Sold By Song team. Mahalo for your help!"

"My association with Jaymes and his team and the service promised was far and beyond expectation or ever experienced before in a sale of a home. The experience came at the time of the restrictions of the Covid 19 pandemic. Jaymes and his team stood the time of test.
Trustworthy- Everything promised prior to the Pandemic was given and met. If adjustments had to be made we were never made to feel it was an issue and it could not be done. They would offer another way, always being positive.
Friendliness-You were always made to feel important and your concerns and needs were first before the sale of the home. They were always sensitive to what our home meant to us.
Service- You are always kept updated in the progress of the Sale of the Home. To make one feel comfortable to communicate, I appreciated the fact that team members are assigned to you and they are always by your side from the start to the finish. Question asked are immediately responded to and always with a cheerful attitude.
Knowledge- Their knowledge of the market and the area was assuring when it came to how we should price our home for our time-line and during this pandemic.
They are Number One in my Bdook and I will stand by them always and to anyone.
Jaymes and his team are First class all around!"

"During the initial interview/meeting, Jaymes and Becky brought a comprehensive marketing plan along with comps of my property. He came very well- prepared and was very knowledgeable about the comps in the area. Providing a comprehensive marketing plan at the initial meeting was very impressive and solidified my decision to list with Jaymes.
The sales process with Jaymes and the team was great. I would not hesitate to use Jaymes and team for future real estate transactions."

"After interviewing several realtors, Jaymes stood out because he was the most prepared and he provided me with straightforward answers. During our appointment, Jaymes and his team quickly took notes/pictures and asked all the right questions to assess my needs as the seller. The other realtors were going to cost less but I required a specific sales timeline and expected a seamless sales process given the preparations made to selling our home. After our initial meeting, I felt Jaymes could deliver on these expectations. My property received an offer after the first open house. The offer was over my asking price and it sold/closed within 30 days. I couldn't be any happier with my decision to use Jaymes and his team."

"Jaymes and his team came into my life during a really terrible time—I had never owned a house or sold a house, and I was unfortunately thrust into doing it after my dad suddenly died. I was scattered and grieving and living 1,000 miles away, and Jaymes quite literally treated me like family, talking me through the smallest, dumbest aspects of repairing, cleaning, listing, and selling the house. He was available by phone or email any time of the day (I wasn’t able to fly to Hawaii even once) and was one of the most trustworthy people I’ve ever worked with in any capacity. He and his team did literally all of the work for me—they found repairmen, cleaning services, and landscapers, they worked with my attorneys, they literally cleaned out the entire four-bedroom house by themselves (without AC, mind you), and managed to find and save a box of old photos I didn’t even know existed. I really, truly wish I could convey just how much they saved me—they turned a horrible period of my life into the best possible experience. I’m so, so grateful I found Jaymes, and honestly want to buy a house just to have him sell it again."

Job goes still very well even if he is not around. All because of his excellent leadership. He has totally changed the image of Hawaiian realty agent-speedy, super responsible & quick. Can't think of any other words than "BRAVO" to describe Jaymes. Without Jaymes, I can say, my house cannot be sold at that good price and quickly."

"My wife and I moved to Oahu in October of 2016. We are both working professionals and have been through the process of buying and selling real estate in Alaska and Minnesota. We were a little overwhelmed and intimidated by the fast-paced Hawaii Real Estate Market. Jaymes and his team were extremely helpful and efficient in guiding us through the process. They are extremely knowledgeable about the local markets and eager to help us make the best choices for our future home. Jaymes and his team were always available if we had questions or concerns regardless of the hour or day. I would highly recommend Jaymes Song and the team whether you are buying or selling. They will go the extra mile to satisfy the needs of their customer. Unfortunately, this is a level of service that is rarely encountered these days."

"I really enjoyed working with Jaymes Song, having such a pleasant personality. I have always felt comfortable calling and even emailing him whenever I have questions regarding the sale. Jaymes has worked extremely hard with so many issues that had occurred after the offer. He really worked HARD resolving all the issues. I will refer my family/friends to Jaymes Song should they need a realtor. BHG has a terrrific realtor on staff!!!!!!!!
Jaymes Song is off the chart, he's "more" than excellent! I'd rate him Excellent++++++++++!!!
Besides Jaymes Song, working with his Team, Renee Oyama Evans, was highly enjoyable too. I also felt extremely comfortable speaking to her, able to call/email with house prep (before the sale). Renee is also so friendly and easy to talk with. I am so grateful I had Jaymes and Renee with the sale of my parents' property.
Overall Jaymes Song has been more than excellent!"

"Jaymes helped me purchase a new development so inspections and negotiation were not an issue. But his knowledge of the development was absolutely amazing and critical to my purchase. Jaymes became aware immediately when my unit became available (prior purchased could not make required deposit) and ran to the sales office to get my name in. If we missed the opportunity by 15 minutes it would've been lost. Jaymes attention and dedication to my purchase was really amazing.
Jaymes has bee excellent across the board and is the only person in Hawaii that I recommend to friends"

"As I've told him repeatedly, "You saved my a$$!" In May 2015, I had signed a listing contract with a low-cost, TV-ad realtor and my 1bdrm Makiki condo remained unsold 4 months later. A close friend later recommended Jaymes to me. I signed with Jaymes on September 1, and we received our first offer 11 days later. Jaymes is a consummate professional with a great knack for marketing and a keen understanding of real estate metrics. I will definitely be sticking with him in the future. Thanks Jaymes!"
