I’m thrilled and humbled to share that one of my current featured properties – Waiaha Estates in Holualoa – has been named HGTV’s Ultimate House Hunt Winner for 2017 in the “Outdoor Retreats” category.

More than 1 million votes were cast to determine the winners! Many thanks to those who selected Waiaha Estates as their favorite in this category and congratulations to all my colleagues who participated in the contest this year. The competition was especially strong in 2017 with so many incredible homes entered from all over the world.
