Malia is amazing. One of the most considerate and knowledgeable real estate agents in Kauai. I've used her for several transactions and she is as trustworthy, honest, and forthcoming as they get.

Hard to say enough about Malia. Right on top of everything from beginning to end. We talked about and set the price just right to encourage early activity. And the pictures taken of the house inside and out were very important in setting the stage and picturing the house just as it should be. Good relationship. And knowledge of the market and neighborhood is crucial. You want to sell but not oversell and be honest. Just right.

In addition to, and perhaps more important than, all of the typical traits one wants in a realtor (knowledge of the local market, attention to detail, listening to the needs of her clients, etc.), Malia embodies the most important aspect of all: Trust. She represented us as the buyers of a property for which she was also the listing agent. From the start of our interaction, it was clear that she had our best interests at heart, while also taking care of her other client in the transaction, the seller. Not an easy line to walk, and yet she did so with such ease and integrity that it felt like doing business with family. Every aspect of the negotiation process was filled with a sense of great care for all parties involved.

Malia Powers is one of those rare realtors who combines integrity, excellent negotiating skills, honesty, hard work, and kindness. We were fortunate enough to meet Malia during our search for a home on Kauai earlier this year. We made an offer and were under contract. When the inspection revealed too many issues for the price we negotiated, Malia was 100% on our side. Ultimately, we canceled the contract. We never felt pressure from Malia to keep the deal going since it was not the right fit. She was truly our advocate, and she earned our trust! I am a top-producing real estate broker in another state, so I have very high standards for realtors. Malia exceeded all these standards, and when the time comes for us to buy in Kauai, Malia Powers will be our realtor.

Malia Powers and Bruce Whale are two of the absolute best. We truly cannot recommend them enough! They are the kindest, most welcoming, and genuine people. They pair expert knowledge of both the market and Kauai with excellent negotiation skills and hard work. They were open and honest with each step of the process, reminding us that they cared deeply about our ultimate satisfaction. We are so thankful to have met and worked with them. When we are in the market to buy a house again in the future, Malia and Bruce will be our first call. It would be an honor to be represented by them!
