Client Reviews

Don't take my word for it — here's what buyers and sellers on Kauaʻi have to say about the experience.

Wayne and Kristine will remain my top selection for any of my future real estate needs in the State of Hawaiʻi.

Wayne and Kristine have taken great pride in professionalism, efficiency, fairness and results in representing me in selling our residential property. They are both excellent at communication and are very detailed in all aspects. I have purchased and sold numerous real estate properties and have been fortunate to have been represented by several outstanding agents. Wayne and Kristine will remain my top selection for any of my future real estate needs in the State of Hawaiʻi.

— Charles, Seller Client

She is by FAR the best agent I ever worked with!

"For one, she listened to what I want and didn't try to steer me towards something that might pay her more. She also went out of her way to show me properties even while I was on the mainland. She helped with inspections etc. She was polite, respectful and went out of her way to accommodate my desires."

— Benita, Buyer Client

My only complaint is that I don't have another house to sell.

"I've worked with a number of different agents in the last 10 years and the team of Kristine and Wayne were definitely the most reliable. Their knowledge of the market was impressive. Their attention to detail during this transaction saved me considerable time and money. Selling a house is stressful but their 8am summary put my mind at ease. They also educated me on every step of the process and shared what I needed to correct — which helped me feel confident in their strategy on pricing, staging, and advertising."

— Shane & Gretchen, Seller Clients

Kristine is truly exceptional!

"She went above and beyond to ensure the sale of our home went smoothly, offering expert advice, handling final touches, and managing the entire process seamlessly from offer to close. Kristine kept us informed every step of the way, and her thoroughness and dedication gave us peace of mind. Her coordination with her team allowed us to relax, knowing everything was in capable hands. Mahalo, Kristine, for your outstanding work as our REALTOR!"

— Sarah, Seller Client

Highly professional and extremely efficient.

Recently I have had the pleasure of working directly with Kristine during the process of selling one of my properties... I have found her to be highly professional and extremely efficient. She has proven to me that she is very competent, on top of her game, and easy to work with. Her friendliness and congenial personality have made me feel comfortable and have significantly reduced my anxiety and stress. For all these reasons, I am delighted to provide this reference for her. Should you choose to hire her as your realtor, I am confident that you will not be disappointed.

— Carol, Investor, Seller Client

Kristine really listened to what I wanted...

"I highly recommend Kristine. She has a deep understanding of the local area, was extremely communicative throughout the process, and really listened to what I wanted. She was meticulous with every detail of the contract and walked me through all of it. As we all know, buying or selling a house can be very stressful. Kristine brought calm into my world and made my entire experience smooth and stress-free."

— Jill, Seller Client

You went above and beyond...

"I want to thank you both for all your hard work on the sale of the Trust property that I was in charge of located in Kapaʻa. You two went above and beyond with this property, as it needed lots of work and repairs, that you handled for me since I live in Washington. You also handled the renters professionally and gracefully as they vacated the property. The closing went smoothly because of your encouragement to take a backup offer, which we ended up having to use. I would highly recommend you to anyone considering selling their property."

— Ronae, Trustee, Seller Client

To have you on my side during this process was such a relief!

"Kristine, thank you so much for all of your support in selling my mom's house after her passing. To have you on my side during this process was such a relief! When things seemed so overwhelming, you stepped in and took a huge amount of stress off my shoulders. I'm grateful and I know my mom is grateful too. Really, I feel so lucky we had you."

— Lindsey, Trustee, Seller Client

Kristine knows how to navigate the complexities of the market and different unique ways to purchase.

I can't speak highly enough of Kristine Dugan as our real estate agent. Her professionalism, knowledge, integrity, and hard work ethics are very much appreciated and respected. She is detail oriented, honest, and communicates great with her clients. Anyone who works with her is lucky to have her on their side. It's a competitive market and Kristine knows how to navigate the complexities of the market and different unique ways to purchase your home or investment property.
