She genuinely cares about her work and makes her clients a priority. After 3 months of vacancy, I switched PM's and hired Michelle to upgrade my kitchen and find tenants for my house. She understood the sense of urgency and with every conversation, she gained my trust and respect very quickly. With her extensive experience, she offered valuable insight, fiscal resolutions, preventative maintenance strategies, and went above and beyond my expectations, which is hard to accomplish, considering I am a PM and Realtor myself. She is intelligent, efficient, compassionate, and detail oriented. I am truly blessed to work with her and grateful for everything she has done for me.

I've had HiPacific for more than 4 years, and they have been outstanding every step of the way. I'm…read moreinvolved in service issues because I requested to be, and this allows me to screen or assist. One example: recently the electric stove was not working. HiPacific sent a tech to diagnose with my permission, the repair was $600+. I decided to replace the stove rather than repair. I've always had trouble getting appliances on Oahu from Home Depot or similar (from remote) - so Yana helped find a vendor with real on-island inventory, and we got it installed within a week. Last year, we had damaged cabinets. I had to be more involved because it was a specialty HOA supplier, but I found new cabinet doors, shipped them from the mainland, and Yana oversaw installation with a local handyman. I consider this a partnership, and HiPacfic is the best property mgmt service I've had (multiple rentals, 6+ prop mgrs). Yana is outstanding and worth every penny.

And then retaliate charging for normal wear and tear of a house falling apart. We have pictures too. Shameful No damage was done on the property, as stated on the invoice this is normal wear and tear. Also this is a two unit property shared garage cans. With another tenant who also used the garbage cans, where we even helped our senior lower unit tenant dump her garbage the day we moved out, And when we moved in the cans were full and we had to request it to be removed. We have emails showing the cans were full and removed with rental company. Returning property as it was found, no damage done to the property. Normal wear and tear on the invoice and some are not even real. Duck tape so rodents don't go in the house.. wear and tear!

Sean and Cathy can kick rocks with slippers on. Extremely unprofessional and unethical.

The Honolulu Management team got on our radar through a mutual family recommendation. We have used…read moretheir services to manage our property 4000+ miles away from our current residence. They are very professional, quick to respond to inquiries, and the best part, only contact you when it is necessary. We couldn't be any happier and more at ease leaving our property to be managed by this team! When we moved 4 years ago, we left our property in the hands of the Honolulu Management team. They are very understanding of our concerns of our property, but also respect our decisions when it comes to increasing or maintaining rent prices based on the market value. These discussions are always professional, keeping the renter, the team, and our financial needs as the core of our talks- Ensuring we are not over pricing but also being cognizant of Hawaii cost of living for our renters. We have had a total of 3 families rent our home in Hawaii since we moved to the mainland 4 years ago. For those who own, you know how stressful upkeep is on a monthly, semi-annual, and yearly basis. Renting your property adds to that stress, because as the landlord you are responsible for any fixes and damages that need to be done while your home is occupied. Of the 3 families that rented, all communication ran through the Honolulu Management team. Within the 4 years, we have had issues from repainting, patching, cleaning, A/C repair, water leaks, Appliance replacements, and the annual property checks. Through all these issues, the team handled all the logistics, communicating to us only the financing required and or approval of work orders. Let me tell you, that I'm more than glad having this team look out for my property while we are 4000+ miles and 4 time zones away! The cherry on top is that they use reputable vendors for work orders that need to be completed on property. It's great when invoices are transparent with a list and pictures to confirm issues. Their working relationship with these vendors also provides a quick response as needed, allowing our renters ease of mind when in need of a fix like plumbing or appliance repair. I firmly believe the price we pay to utilize their services to manage our property is money well spent on this team. If you are looking for a team to handle the management of your property, then look no further because they can do it all!

NUMBER ONE COMPLAINT! The move out information basically…read moresays in a thinly veiled way that if you do not use their "preferred cleaners" you won't get your security deposit back. These cleaners charge an absolutely insane rate, $500 quote site unseen. I have kept my apartment perfectly clean and own a carpet cleaner, there is barely anything for them to clean. But given the wording of the move out instructions, as well as the experience of other yelpers, I don't believe for a second that I would get my security deposit back if I cleaned it myself. They even strongly advise against using any other cleaning company. I also don't think that these cleaners necessarily do $500 worth of cleaning because when I moved in there were still remnants of the previous tenants that should have been cleaned up such as tape on the walls, balled up foil stuck in cracks etc. The way that this stuff is worded I can only assume that the cleaning company is either secretly owned by Oishi's or gives them a massive kickback. Absolutely despicable in my opinion, but what the hell can I even do. Decent experience actually living here though. They do fix things within an appropriate time frame if you can get a hold of them. The phone system is complicated where you have to enter an extension to actually talk to a human and I have no idea what extension I should use or who it is I need to talk to. They treat you pretty nice. Every year my rent is increased but only by $10 so no biggie. In the end its a fine company to go with, just be prepared to get swindled out of half of your security deposit.

I later received a second mailing on 12/19/2025, which they said was a reissued/resend. In the second mailing, about $700 was deducted from my $1,600 security deposit. The documentation I received did not clearly explain the deductions, and I am currently trying to obtain complete copies of the move-out statement/ledger and supporting documents (invoices/work orders and photos). If you have had a similar issue with delayed security deposit returns or disputes over deductions with this company, please message me through Yelp!!!!!! I'm trying to see whether this is a pattern and, if so, explore possible options for collective action!!! Thank you.

We've been trying to make changes to our property due to security and safety measures only to find out our property was in violation WITHOUT PROPER DOCUMENTATION OR NOTIFICATION! Took us 2 months to find out, and then another 2 weeks to find out what exactly those violations were, which are VERY common "violations" within the entire community. Board meetings are held to address issues and concerns but ONLY if they meet quorum so if you have any issues, be prepared to wait months on end for simple resolutions that their own manager can't answer. The lack of communication and the lack of urgency shows that this company does not care for those who are paying their fees. Avoid any property being "managed" by this team.
