Louis LaFratta | Kauai Real Estate

TESTIMONIALS

"Simultaneously selling our primary residence abroad and buying a new one on Kauai, my wife and I needed an extraordinary property professional. Pandemic lockdowns prohibited us from traveling to Hawaii, so we had to rely upon photos, videos, and FaceTime sessions.

​We began working with Louis LaFratta in 2020, and he showed us several homes, one of which became our new home over the course of the following year and a half.  We were impressed by his mastery of local real estate practices, and by his ability to navigate various differences in property transactions between our overseas country and Hawaii which could have complicated the transaction further.  He was regularly in touch to keep us apprised of the various contractual deadlines, and he referred us to resources necessary for our due diligence.  His friendly and upbeat manner was a comfort during the stressful selling/buying/moving process.

​Here on Kauai he continues to be in touch with helpful references for professional services as well as suggestions as to how to finally relax and enjoy our new life.  Having bought and sold a number of properties over the years, we place him at the top of our list of real estate professionals."

"We hired Louis to sell our Princeville condo. He was extremely professional and used a variety of means to market our property, including 360 photography to create a virtual tour, marketing through the Oceanfront Sotheby's network and doing targeted marketing on Facebook. He held our home open frequently.

Our condo went under contract just as Covid-19 became an issue worldwide. We had many questions and expressed concern about the transaction because of the pandemic. Louis did a fantastic and thorough job of keeping us informed. He also has a calm demeanor and a level head which is so helpful in stressful situations. We whole heartedly endorse Louis. He is the best.”

"Hire Louis if you can. He sold our investment property on Kaua'i and from the beginning, he did it right. I'm a real estate agent from O'ahu, thus a very discerning client and Louis exceed our expectations. From property preparation, marketing, communications, and ultimately the high sold price, we were very pleased. Expertise with aloha - we couldn't be happier to have him list our property. Mahalo!"

"Louis LaFratta is an excellent realtor. He is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, professional, warm, friendly, and makes sure that he meets his clients needs.

I worked with Louis when I was looking for a new home. Although inventory of homes was low, he persevered in finding the right home for me, letting me know without delay when something became available that he thought I might like.

He was very available, and I never felt like I missed any opportunities for a purchase. I appreciated his method in ensuring that no item was missed or late once I got into escrow. He expertly facilitated my purchase with the seller's realtor, my lender, and escrow agents. He was available to meet with anyone that was needed, and he was an excellent resource throughout in obtaining quotes and locating any service vendor I needed. I would not hesitate to recommend him wholeheartedly in any capacity as a realtor.

Not only was the entire process of purchasing a new home under Louis's guidance very pleasurable, but now I am happy to be able to call him a friend."

"To us, the most important qualities in an agent  are trustworthiness, professionalism, and market knowledge, in that order. Louis exceeded our expectations on all fronts, but stands out as the most honest, straightforward broker we’ve ever worked with.  What's more, he was patient, well-connected, and extremely insightful. Our buying experience couldn't have been better.”

"I have had the pleasure of working with Louis LaFratta in selling a townhome condominium in Princeville, Kauai. Louis is the consummate professional - always available to me as the seller, as well as to prospects for showings. He goes the "extra-mile" to help get a deal done. He is creative, but yet a stickler for detail so nothing important is missed. I highly recommend Louis LaFratta to anyone looking to buy or sell property in Kauai."

"Dear Potential Buyers of Paradise,My husband and I have been looking for a little slice of Heaven for well over two years. We were fortunate to have been guided through this odyssey by Louis LaFratta with Oceanfront Sotheby's International Realty in Princeville.

Louis has been meticulous and thorough by showing us an assortment of homes and condos. He provided comparable properties and provided any and all information needed to make a solid decision for the final choice in December of 2016.

Louis was in constant contact with us on the island and on the mainland. He is very familiar with Kauai and the other islands as he has lived and raised his family here. He has answered all of our inquiries with quickness and treated our family with the utmost respect that we would  recommend him to any one interested in seeking a residence in Kauai.

He is punctual, reliable and knowledgeable of the many communities on the island, and he's pretty funny, too. After this journey, I am happy to call Louis, our friend and neighbor. You will be lucky to work with him! Good luck on your journey~"

"Over the past several months, I have accomplished the purchase of my dream Condo in Kauai. Much of the process was done over the phone, and on the computer while I was in California, with the excellent representation of Louis Lafratta on Kauai.

Louis stayed in constant communication with the Seller's Broker, Lender, and Escrow. Louis was the perfect Professional, always communicating any twists and turns in the process.

That being said, there was no surprise that was a problem for Louis, as his experience in Building and Real Estate navigate the often unforeseen pitfalls. I believe that Louis' combination of Building and his experience with the unique nature of Kauai's Real Estate Market were instrumental in closing my transaction and I am truly grateful that Louis Lafratta was and is my Broker!

He stayed 100% involved entirely through to the very end, and personally handed me my keys. I will recommend Louis Lafratta directly to my closest family and friends in the future for any Hawaii Real Estate needs. I am proud to call Louis my friend."

- Timothy C., July 2021

- CH C., October 2020
"I've worked with Louis on two real estate transactions and I can tell you he knows this island. He has given me expert advise and has always worked with integrity and honesty. I won't work with anyone else. Mahalo, Louis!"
