Trust
Trust isn't claimed — it's earned. We'll tell you when a listing's wrong for you, when the price doesn't make sense, and when waiting is the right call. The same standard of work whether you're buying your first condo or your forever home.
Looking to buy? Let’s get it right.
Buying a home in Honolulu isn’t about chasing listings. It’s about knowing which one actually fits — your life, your budget, your timing — and which ones to walk away from.
Why Buy With Us
Why buyers choose MY Realty Group.
Right Fit
A home isn't just bedrooms and square footage — it's neighborhood, building rules, future plans, the commute, the school catchment. We help you see the full picture before you fall in love with a kitchen.
Care
Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions of your life. We treat it that way. No automated drip campaigns. No generic playbooks. No agent who disappears after the offer. Just a Realtor who answers his own phone and stays with you through the whole process.
“He not only delivered — he exceeded every expectation.”
Accountability
When you work with MY Realty Group, the Realtor you hire is the Realtor who does the work. Maxs is licensed, reachable, and accountable to your outcome — on every listing you tour and every offer you write.
Property Search
Search smart. Don’t just browse.
Zillow will show you every listing in Honolulu. We’ll show you the ones that fit. Tell us what you’re looking for — budget, neighborhood, must-haves, deal-breakers — and we’ll set up a custom search that filters out the noise. New listings hit your inbox the same day they hit the MLS.
If you’re not ready to talk yet, that’s fine. Watch what comes through, learn the market, and reach out when something catches your eye.

What We Actually Do
What we actually do for buyers.
The work most agents don’t talk about.
Pre-approval coordination
We've built relationships with local lenders who know Honolulu — not a 1-800 number. Different lenders solve different problems (self-employed income, VA loans, condo financing, jumbo loans, first-time buyer programs). We'll point you toward the right referral based on your situation, before you tour your first home.
Tailored property search
We don't just forward you everything new on the MLS. We filter for fit — your floor preference, view, building rules, parking, square footage that's actually usable. You see fewer listings, but the right ones.
Building and condo expertise
Maintenance fees. Special assessments. Reserved housing rules. AOAO health. Pet policies. Rental restrictions. We know which Honolulu buildings have surprises waiting for buyers — and which ones don't.
Offer strategy and negotiation
Pricing the offer right. Reading the seller's motivation. Knowing what concessions are normal in Honolulu and which ones are red flags. We negotiate so you don't pay more than you should, and you don't lose the right home over $5K.
Inspection and escrow guidance
We walk you through the inspection findings, help you decide what to push back on and what to accept, and stay on top of escrow so the closing doesn't get derailed by paperwork.
Post-close support
Recommended contractors, handymen, painters, cleaners, landscapers. We don't disappear after the keys are in your hand.
The Process
A clear process. Here’s what you can expect.
- 01
Buyer consultation
A 30-minute conversation — in person, on Zoom, whatever works. We talk through what you're looking for, your timeline, your budget, and what's important to you. No pressure to commit.
- 02
Pre-approval
We introduce you to a lender who fits your situation. They walk you through what you actually qualify for — which is often more than you think, or sometimes less. Either way, you'll know your real budget before you start touring.
- 03
Custom search and tours
Custom MLS alerts hit your inbox. We schedule tours of the homes that fit. We show up to every showing in person — no lockbox-and-text, no junior agent. You ask questions, we answer them on the spot.
- 04
Offer
When you find the right home, we walk you through offer strategy: price, contingencies, timing, what to ask for, what to leave out. We submit, negotiate, and report back.
- 05
Inspection, escrow, close
Once you're in contract, we manage the timeline — inspection, appraisal, title, financing, walk-through. Twice-weekly check-ins so you always know where things stand.
- 06
Keys in hand
Closing day. Keys. A celebratory text from Maxs. Then — when you need a contractor or a friend in the business — you still have our cell numbers.
From Buyer Clients
Maxs mentioned he wouldn't sell us a home that he wouldn't feel safe if his own family lived there. He got to know our story. Our past, likes, dislikes, hobbies, goals. I've never met a realtor that sacrifices so much going out of his way to put his clients first.
