Jeff Char was excellent! My wife and I last bought a house in the early 90s and the whole process has undergone quite a change. Jeff patiently answered our many questions, gave us his recommendations and backed our decisions. The entire Better Homes team was very prompt in returning calls and emails. Very smooth process. Once we chose our property, Jeff advised us on the bid and arranged all the required inspections, contracts and closing negotiations. We just had to give our consent and show up. Extremely professional and well organized. Our house requirements evolved during our search process and Jeff shifted gears to ensure our needs were met. He patiently answered the thousands of questions we had throughout the process and used his extensive knowledge of the area real estate to meet our requests. Our satisfaction was his biggest concern. Always smiling and receptive his expertise and communication skills made this major life event very low stress. I couldn’t be more pleased with Jeff and his team. Glad it’s over, but overall the process was as trouble-free as something this complex could be.
We moved to Hawai'i from Los Angeles in 2016 and understood right away that the Hawai'i housing market is competitive and unique. Knowing this, we could not have asked for a better representative for our first home purchase. From the beginning, we were given a thorough run down of what to expect in the home buying process. Jeff quickly grasped what our ideal home was and always highlighted listings he knew we would be interested in, even though we received timely emails with the listings. He made sure we wouldn't miss any opportunity to find our home. He is knowledgeable and patient in explaining every aspect of the purchase contract and closing. We also appreciated Jeff's personable nature and words of encouragement through the two years of searching. Jeff assembled a Grade-A team to assist with the process. He connected us with our loan officer Lee-Ann Galapia, who made a typically stressful and invasive process extremely smooth for us. We also loved working with Kim Hanawahine, who tracked every step of escrow. Jeff excels in being patient, knowledgeable, approachable and respectful. Bonus: He's also great with little kids! My 4-year-old felt comfortable with "Uncle Jeff" because Jeff took the time to engage with him during our meetings. I will be recommending Jeff Char and the Better Homes and Gardens team to anyone seeking a realtor. Without hesitation.

He really made us feel at ease in selling of the Condo. You cannot find a better person to help you with everything. Mahalo Jeff
Jeff Char was very professional and approachable. I am a first time homebuyer. As a medical professional with variable and limited hours, Jeff accommodated me and took the time to explain things. He worked very hard on my behalf. He strives for excellence and I am convinced that he believes that his clients deserve nothing less. Lastly, I appreciated his timely and clear communication. Kim Hanawahine (senior transaction manager) was also timely and clear with communication from opening to closing escrow. Awesome experience! I still can't believe that I am a homeowner! I would definitely recommend Jeff Char and Better Homes and Gardens without reservations.
My wife and I met Jeff Char while we were randomly looking at open houses around the Hawaii Kai / Kalama Valley area. We really appreciated his friendliness and "no pressure" salesmanship. What made us stick with Jeff Char as our broker was our experience with him during our initial set of open house tours. He was very patient, organized, and knowledgeable of each listing and their general location. We will definitely consider having Jeff Char as our broker if we decide to purchase another home in the future, and highly recommend him to anyone presently purchasing a home.
Jeff Char is the best in the business. He found me a perfect rental on my first day on Oahu and then a year later we bought a house on the first try on the first day we looked at them with him. He closed it under asking and in 22 days! Then 3 years later when it was time to sell that property , Jeff was the only realtor I wanted to use. He sold the property for above asking within 5 hours of listing it!
Jeff - is very thorough and attentive, ALWAYS; he is most definitely the "go to guy".....................dg
I couldn’t be more impressed with the professionalism of our agent Jeff Char. His hassle free approach made our home buying experience very enjoyable and exciting. He took the time to explain everything in detail, in words and terms that I, a first time home buyer could easily understand. Jeff was as honest as honest can be and I never felt that he was pressuring us just to make the sale. Once we found our perfect home, he really went out of his way to make sure that we got exactly what we wanted. His knowledge of this business really shows. I would highly recommend Jeff Char and Better Homes and Gardens Advantage Realty to anyone that is looking to buy or sell their home.
Jeff was an asset during the entire search and purchase experience. His knowledge of the local market, the history of the properties visited, and his drive made this a relatively painless experience. He was always prepared for the viewings of properties, and when I put in my initial offer on a short sale property he was engaged with the sellers agent to enable the process. When a different property became available Jeff was able to rapidly shift to supporting the purchase of the new property. I appreciate that dedication in supporting my property purchase. I would wholeheartedly recommend Jeff to anyone who is looking to purchase a home in Honolulu. His friendly and engaging personality made the drudgery of looking at properties and going through the purchase process a lot less onerous.
