"My experience working with Rolanda Racoma to purchase my first ever property was fantasic. Truly, it's impossible to imagine the process going any better from start all the way until close. She is a spectacular worker, leader, and teacher and I'm honored to be her client. There is no doubt in my mind, I was in the best hands possible while working with Rolanda.
Mother of one of my very close friends, knew she was one of, if not the top producer on island, and knew that she understood my situation perfectly and could help me as needed.
She was an absolute dream to work with. Polite, respectful, communicated extremely clearly, and stopped to help me understand anything that I was unfamiliar with. The greatest!
Could not have dreamed of a better experience. Rolanda took the best care of me, answered every question I had, and guided me through the whole process start to finish, while educating me in the process! It's hard to imagine a smoother buying process, all thanks to Aunty Rolanda. She is the absolute greatest!
Great support staff!
Look forward to continuing the relationship with BHGRE and Rolanda. Will be sending friends and family her way."

"Rolanda Racoma
From day one when we contacted Rolanda she was extremly helpful in the purchase of this home and all the different situations that came up along the way. She guided us throughout the whole process and making sure all questions were answered. One of the most important things for us is communication and without a doubt she was always there
if i had a concern to talk about.
We would highly recommend Rolanda Racoma as your agent..

"I had been watching Rolanda's posts on social media and was impressed by the transformations of each property she represented. I continued to pay attention to the outcomes of her clients' home sales and/or purchases. The quality and skill she brought to each experience seemed to make a profound difference for every one she worked with.
From the moment we handed the property over to her, Rolanda's skills became very crucial to the success of our outcome. From the way she staged our home to the guidance she provided when we got our first legit offer, Rolanda was essential to each step forward that we took with confidence.
Rolanda kept us up to speed with the timeline of things taking place and always answered any questions that we had along the way in a timely manner. She helped us stay focused on meeting deadlines and responding to emails. Communication with her was spot on and she incorporated others from her team without a hiccup.
We are grateful to have been represented by Rolanda and experiencing first hand the knowledge, confidence, attention to detail, and expertise she came packaged with. Her friendly demeanor and beautiful smile went hand in hand with how easily we felt like she had become an extension to our family."

"We had wonderful service from your agent, Rolanda. She provided us more top service than an agent required. Rolanda was very professional, friendly and understanding of our needs. She was always on time and very polite and respectful towards us. We didn't know anything about the broker but we met Rolanda by chance when we went to the Open House that Sunday, 6/26th. She was a wonderful person and my daughter and son-in-law they all liked her very much.
Rolanda handled all things regarding the sale very smoothly. That made a huge different for us old folks (69 and 75 years old). We didn't have to worry about anything because we trusted Rolanda (even thought we just met her a short time ago) and knew we were in good hands. We had very good feelings when we interviewed her after the Open house meeting regarding the sale of our condo.
Rolanda was a God sent person to help us. My husband had 2 strokes in Feb. 2022 and the chance of retiring to Oahu was very slim. We bought the condo 14 years ago for our retirement because my family all lived in Hawaii. Our children live in DC and VA.
Honesty is hard to come by these days. It is wonderful to have some one you can trust. Not that my family will sell their homes in Hawaii. But if they do, I will sure recommend Rolanda to my family."

"I've worked with Rolanda Racoma on 3 other transactions and I have never had any problems with her performance. She is thorough and reacts expeditiously to your needs. I wouldn't even think about using any other person.
Rolanda Racoma has great attention to detail and is very knowledgeable of real estate transactions/process and to the local area. She was with me every step of the way. Besides being very trustworthy, what I like most about Rolanda is that she is very accessible and has very timely communications. I never had problems reaching her or her getting back to me.
I would never ever think of using any other agent. Rolanda Racoma is the best of the best! I was fortunate enough to find Rolanda and she has more than exceeded my expectations and I'm a picky person to work with because I expect perfection and Rolanda delivered!
Mahalo Rolanda --- BEST REALTOR EVER!!!"

"As I mentioned before, Rolanda Racoma was just outstanding. She put us at ease from the very on-set of this process, did all of the heavy lifting, remained calm and cool throughout, reassured us when we had questions, and made sure everything ran smoothly. I just can't thank you enough. If you need a person to assist you, I would highly recommend Rolanda...and I'm not kidding when I say that she was great."

"Rolanda did an amazing job on the sale of our townhome. Rolanda went over and above any ordinary agent and as a result we were able to get 30K above ask and close quickly. I would highly recommend Rolanda to anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable, hardworking agent. I can’t wait to work with Rolanda again!!
Rolanda staged our home better than we could have imagined. All of the comments from the open house was the style and feel. I truly believe that is why we had such a quick close and so many offers.
This sale was our first home sale, Rolanda provided answers to all of our questions and then some. She made the entire process seamless and stress free.
Our sale was incredibly stress free and profitable. I truly believe it was due to Rolanda’s expertise and knowledge of the Mililani market"

"Rolanda is the best!
We happened upon one of Rolanda’s listings around 4 years ago and she helped us with our first purchase. We loved working with her so we stayed in touch with her over the years. We knew when we were ready to find a bigger home she was the one to call. We had no doubt if Roland listed our home it would sell fast, and it did! Rolanda and her team helped us through all the struggles of finding and purchasing our new home. She stood by us going above and beyond to help us through closing. It was such a blessing to work with her and if we are ever in need of a realtor again, she will be the one we call! We highly recommend Rolanda and her team! Thank you so much Rolanda!"

"This was our first experience with selling property. We were very reluctant and somewhat awestruck with what we perceived to be a complex process in selling property. When we first discussed what we wanted to do in selling the property with Rolanda, she reassured us that it would be a great "learning experience" for us and that she would walk us through the process. I must say that she was able to follow-through with her plans with us. From the actual listing, the property showing to the sale and closing, Roland continually reassured us. We learned quiet a lot about selling real estate with little or no stress.
We would not hesitate in recommending better Homes & Gardens Reality to those acquaintances interested in selling property and further encourage them to request Rolanda Racoma to handle the sale."

"I give Rolanda my absolutely highest recommendation. She helped me find a home and purchase it almost completely virtually as I was overseas. I trusted her judgment and she delivered beyond all expectations. She would FaceTime, give honest feedback on pros and cons, and work reliably on all the details to ensure that we identified the perfect home and got through the purchase process effectively. Finally, her positive attitude and friendliness made the experience fun and less stressful! I will be recommend her to all of my future friends and colleagues who are looking to purchase a home in a Oahu."

I never had any problems with their services, so that's why I immediately called them when I needed to find another place for myself. Rolanda and her team are the best!!!"

"We interviewed two realtors and weighed our options. After comparing the two, we chose Rolanda because of her energy and organized plan.
Collena provided excellent service!
Rolanda and her team were exceptional. She listened to our needs and timeline and laid out a strategic plan to get our house sold. While it was stressful to go through this process during the pandemic, she made sure that all the little pieces were covered and helped the process stay on track. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor!"

"Rolanda Racoma, Ra was very attentive and caring when it came to my needs and preferences. Extremely patient and accommodating. She made so many appointments work around our schedules and had our best interest in mind and in heart. From the second I clicked on her link...she was in contact with me within 24hrs and it was extremely comfortable to talk to her without having even met her. Rolanda kept me updated and informed with all the properties I was interested in. As a first time home buyer I knew absolutely nothing as to how to even start much less become a homeowner. Rolanda and her team explained everything and made sure we understood every step of the way. I am extremely happy with Rolanda Racoma, Ra and her entire team's services and friendships. Love her!"

No matter what happened, she never gave up on our family to find the perfect home for us, and we are forever grateful."

"I don't have enough words to describe the appreciation I feel for Rolanda and her team. Through out this entire process there was communication, timely responses, and she was always available to me. She answered all of our questions, reassured us when our first potential buyer backed out, and got it back on the market immediately. Not once did I feel like she didn't have our best interest at heart. The entire team was amazing, patient, and so nice! The personal connection was super important for me and she far surpassed the expectations we had of how our first time selling a home would go. This is the dream team!"

"We met her accidentally at an open house - we had no realtor yet. Simply browsing homes at this point. She greeted us and immediately was so friendly and inviting. It stood out to us very well. It helped that she was also local and lived in the area we wanted to purchase. We have dealt with very pushy and rude agents before, Rolanda was different. This is why we picked her, and we couldn’t be happier!
Thank you and your team for treating us as a priority even though our purchase was very small.
She’s perfect the way she is! I hope I can have her again in a few years when we decide to upgrade!
Collena was amazing as well! Such great advice, I wouldn’t have thought about otherwise. Thank you so much for everything!"

"Rolanda was exceptional in helping us find and purchase the house of our dreams. She knew what we were looking for, the criteria that we had set for our future home and was always patient yet dependable in helping us review our options. She always kept us informed and enthusiastically accompanied us to many showings that came close to our needs for almost a year! We never felt pushed or pressured and she always was there to help us find out more and to represent our interests.
With perseverance, when the perfect house finally did come to market she was able to mobilize her team with the utmost efficiency and despite fierce competition, was critical in effectively helping us purchase the house. She was thorough, trustworthy, and professional through a complex closing process. She was always approachable, timely in her communications, knowledgeable, helpful and ultimately the key factor in our ability to secure the once in a lifetime opportunity to buy our new home!
We are so thankful for Rolanda and her team for being there, as in retrospect we don’t know how we would have managed the buying process without her.
We started with Rolanda as our agent and we finished with Rolanda as our friend!"
