MLS 605851 $1,499,000 NEW LISTING When Sue Brown assists a buyer or seller, she takes their very best interests to heart and reacts accordingly. This approach has served her well during her 14 years in the real estate business, as evidenced by being the Island’s top producing Realtor since 2009 for North and South Kona (the area extending from the Kona Airport through South Kona.) In 2007, Sue was chosen as Realtor of the Year by the West Hawaii Association of Realtors. In 2011, 2014, 2016 and 2017 she was listed among the state of Hawaii’s Top 100 Realtors by Hawaii Business Magazine. In addition, she was also recognized by Hawaii Business Magazine for Most Transactions in 2015 and 2016. According to Sue, much of her success to date has come from having a positive attitude and from being a longtime and active resident of Kona. Sue credits referrals from satisfied clients as being a prime reason for her success. Sue moved to West Hawaii 35 years ago from Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, Australia, with her husband Hilary and two young sons. Soon after arriving in South Kona, she saw the need for a preschool. And so began a 20-year career teaching children the importance of honesty, integrity, trust and respect. As Sue points out, these same core values apply very much in the real estate business. She credits her listening, negotiating skills, patience and empathy to her former students, many of whom have become her clients today. Sue transitioned from teaching to full-time real estate in 2003 with the same enthusiasm to serve the community. She is of the opinion that when you love what you do, it becomes your life and it feels like fun rather than work. In 2006, Hilary retired as president of Macfarms of Hawaii to become Sue’s real estate partner. He specializes in farms and land while Sue enjoys the challenge offered by all forms of real estate. She is also well-recognized by her famous slogan, “Everything Sue touches turns to sold.” Recently Sue launched her own brokerage firm: Sue Brown Realty & Associates. Joining Sue and Hilary is their son Tim and his wife Ally, both of whom spent their pre-college years in Kona. Tim has a background in finance while Ally’s background is in accounting. Sue’s soft, gentle approach makes her clients feel comfortable and confident. Her patience, tenacity, problem solving skills and willingness to really listen ensure her client’s goals will be met. Whether marketing a property for a seller or searching for a home for a buyer, Sue equally enjoys the journey and the adventures along the way.
