In 2020 Lonnie was announced winner of the Aloha 'Aina REALTOR Award. This is the most prestigious award given for excellence in real estate service. It celebrates the best in our industry, the aloha spirit, and the huge difference a dedicated Realtor can make for their clients and community. He has been nominated for this award by his clients 3 of the past 4 years.

Lonnie began managing properties while in college and purchased his first multi-unit building in his early 20s. He has long been an advocate of the power of home ownership. "It has been extremely rewarding helping others set and achieve their real estate goals."

It wasn't until his home search in Honolulu that he considered real estate as a full time career. "I'd had several transactions on the mainland and through each of them, whether personal or investment, I felt I had to do all of my own research and hold my agents' hand throughout the process." "I remember the challenges I faced when searching for a home in Hawaii...from Chicago. The guidance of a honest, dedicated, knowledgeable agent made all the difference. Working with a great Realtor is the key to finding the perfect place!"

Lonnie's approach is to make sure his clients are well informed on all aspects of a property before listing a home or making an offer. This sometimes requires connecting them with engineers, contractors, architects, and deep diving into public records. Some clients may need to consider items that are new to them, including soil erosion, land shifting, wind patterns, flood zones, and much more.

He also has experience in guiding clients to boost their home's value with strategic and cost-effective improvements. From staging to repairs and beautification, Lonnie has a proven record of increasing sales price with minimal investment.
"Moves can be stressful so I like to plan ahead, avoid pitfalls, and be a source of calm. I work hard to champion my client's interests."

Prior to real estate, Lonnie was Director of Operations for an award-winning multimedia production company working closely with celebrities, creatives, and advertising agencies on national and international campaigns. He was also a consultant for hospitality groups in aspects of design, marketing and events with clients like Starwood (W Hotels) and Cornerstone Restaurant Group (Michael Jordan's Restaurants).

Through his investment properties and clients he has decades of experience with managing construction and remodeling projects. These experiences, along with his exposure to different hotels and restaurants around the globe, helped to create a unique approach to property management and ownership. "Customer service, attention to detail, eye for design, construction/project management, strategic planning, market knowledge, and negotiation skills have played key roles in my success and that of my clients."

Outside of real estate Lonnie is co-founder of an educational series for entrepreneurs, DJs (under the moniker "007"), is an automobile aficionado, and thankful on a daily basis to call Hawaii home. Whether helping clients create an inviting ambiance to attract buyers or making sure things are perfect for his clients when they walk into the door of their new home...Lonnie strives to exceed expectations every step of the way.
