With over 15 years of experience as a full-time Realtor-Broker, I provide skilled representation for Buyers and Sellers across Hawai‘i Island. I specialize in all types of real estate, from residential homes and luxury estates to farms, land, and investment properties. I am also the go-to expert for navigating KSBE agricultural leasehold transactions—a highly complex process where experience matters.
I take pride in creating value for my clients—helping Buyers secure the best deals and Sellers maximize their return. With strong negotiation skills, diligence, and persistence, I don’t just facilitate transactions—I ensure they close. My expertise, knowledge, and unwavering commitment allow me to anticipate challenges and find solutions, making the process smooth and successful for my clients.
Having lived on Hawai‘i Island for nearly 30 years, I bring a familiarity with its diverse climates, communities, and unique real estate landscape. Every area offers something distinct, and I understand the importance of matching the right property to each client’s needs—whether it’s for lifestyle, investment, or long-term legacy. I approach my work with cultural sensitivity and a deep respect for the land and people, ensuring that every transaction is handled with care and transparency.
When I’m not working, you’ll find me singing, gardening, cooking, enjoying the beach, supporting local businesses, and spending time with my three rescue dogs.
My clients know me as a dedicated, results-driven professional who listens, acts with integrity, and delivers. If you're looking for an agent who is experienced, and committed to your success, I’d love to help you achieve your real estate goals.

What my clients are saying...
My husband Richard Parmenter and I (Teresa) moved to Oahu January 30, 2013. Within 6 months to a year we realized we wanted to investigate purchasing "raw" land. Knowing that is impossible on Oahu, we decided to visit the Big Island. To make a long story short, we were put in touch with Tanya Sunshine. (Her last name says it all - a great attitude and wonderful if not not "sunny" disposition).
Tanya started the process by sending us listings via the web for the Kona area. We immediately found several properties we were interested in seeing.
We made travel plans to meet Tanya on Kona and she spent the entire day with us looking at lots in the Milolii area. She definitely knows her way around the Captain Cook area as well as Milolii. She went above and beyond what we were expecting. She is very knowledgeable and after choosing a lot, she started work immediately.
Her professionalism and knowledge sped the process along and we became proud owners of our "raw" land within 30 days, give or take.
Tanya always was available for questions, concerns or any information we needed. She truly stepped up the plate and hit a home run.
We highly recommend Tanya for any and all of your real estate needs.
Thank you Tanya for making our dream purchase a reality.
Tanya Sunshine receives a 5 star review from me. First of all she responded to me when I reached out to her within a few hours. She was always available to do a showing at last minute. Everytime I called her she got back to me within a timely manner. She has been a realtor for many years and her experience and advice is solid. She is honest and not just in it for the sale. She is dedicated to her clients and has a high standard of customer service. When it came to the closing her team at Hawaii Life made is easy and everything just fell into place. I would recommend her to family and friends for your real estate needs.
