Pualani Zuniga is a real gem! She is patient with her clients and never loses focus on their needs. We never felt rushed to make a decision. We spent more than 6 months looking at properties. Pualani stayed with us all the way from start to finish and now I am happy with our home purchase.

Pualani was a Rockstar throughout the whole process! She really helped us narrow down our search and listened to our "must haves".

Pualani is and absolute GREAT REALTOR AND PERSON !!! She is very knowledgeable about the real estate industry. She gave great suggestions to help us prepare for our home sale. For us it went extremely smooth. This is unusual in today’s market but 13 days from listing to contract. She kept our stress levels low and kept us informed every step of the way. Without reservation we recommended Pualani at Keller Williams really 1000%. She has even set us up with another agent at our destination. Whether you are buying or selling she will treat you with the utmost courtesy, professionalism and respect.

We can't say enough good things about our purchasing experience with Pualani! We were doing a long distance move & Pualani went above & beyond to virtually walk us thru multiple properties in multiple areas of Tennessee. She was extremely thorough on all walk thru's, pointing out both positives & negatives of each property & really had our families best interest at heart. She made the entire long distance move smooth & painless for us. We would recommend her a thousand times over! Pualani – a heartfelt THANK YOU!! – The Greens.

Pualani made the home hunt and relocation experience much less stressful. We have been house hunting for a couple of years with the intent to relocate from NC to Western NC/TN/GA in anticipation of retiring and moving closer to our family. We finally found the perfect home and reached out to the number on the listing. Unfortunately, that listing was pulled from the market, so the search was on again. While we knew the general location of where we wanted to settle, it was quite a big area (Western NC, TN, North GA), Pualani was quick to provide available listing that met our wants/needs in those locations. Since we were located 7-8 hours away, scheduling time to see homes was tricky. On very short notice, Pualani would pull a list of properties together (either we identified, or she identified) and set up viewings on short notices. She was always readily available on short notice to show homes. In several instances, she took videos of homes and sent them to us so we wouldn’t have to make the long drive. Once we decided on a home, she was with us every step of the way. Since it was new construction, it was 8 months from the date we signed the contract until we closed. Pualani was meticulous in providing weekly (and sometimes more often) updates on the progress and the expected milestones. We are so impressed with Pualani’s service; we will definitely use her for our future home buying and selling needs.

Pualani is absolutely amazing to work with as a real estate agent. Her professionalism, patience, problem solving, and so many other qualities and abilities surpasses all expectations. You truly get the service you would expect and more!! We recently purchased a property and when we had issues with the title company, she was quick to help us resolve it even though it was no failure on her part. We have worked with Pualani for the last three years trying to find the right property for retirement in a challenging market. Pualani is a treasure.

Pualani was absolutely amazing! This was my first experience buying a home and I didn't understand anything about the process. Pualani was more than patient with me even though I'm sure I drove her insane with all of my questions and concerns. We used the VA loan since my husband is a veteran and we had several issues come up during the process but Pualani was able to help us get through every obstacle and help us close on our beautiful home. We can't thank her enough for her patience, kindness, diligence and understanding. In the event that we ever decide to sell our home and/or purchase a future home, she will most definitely be the first person we call. I highly recommend Pualani if you are looking for a knowledgeable realtor who is dedicated to her clients. I promise, you won't be disappointed, I honestly believe we would still be looking for the perfect home if we didn't have Pualani there to help us in our seach!

Pualani is a consummate professional! This is a realtor who has gone the extra mile to learn ALL of the in's and out's of the area she sells. If she doesn't have the answer, she researches until she finds what is needed and then does the follow-up. She works well with other realtors involved in her transactions and has a list of vendors who have the same work ethic and knowledge as she does. We were out of town buyers and she helped educate us to the pros and cons of each area we were exploring. Further, she was on top of things that needed to be done locally while we were back at our home state selling our residence there. We had no worries if we asked for her help because we had the confidence to know she would take care of anything that needed to be done. If you're looking for a seamless buying and/or selling experience Pualani is the professional you want!

I would Recommend Pualani to anyone for a Real Estate Agent. She makes sure you are finding what you need and is patient. Isn't pushy like some other real estate agents and really works to get to know what her client is looking for. She stuck by me for 4 months and probably 20 showings later, numerous houses getting contracted, before finally finding my home. If you are looking for a good real estate agent in the Chattanooga/ northern Georgia area you should definitely give pualani a call.

Pualani is incredible. Extremely knowledgeable and very patient – whenever I had questions she would make time to stay on the phone or FaceTime with me to answer any questions or concerns I was having throughout the searching and buying process. I relied heavily on her as I looked for a house from out of state – she was very forthcoming and detail oriented as she showed me houses over FaceTime. I always felt that she was acting in my best interest – more interested in finding the right home and not just a house that met my criteria. I will count on her again when I need the help of a real estate agent and recommend her to any friends or family looking to move to Tennessee.

We found 2 listings we were interested in and when they didn’t pan out she went to work and found us a home that met and went above what we thought we wanted!!Then All thru the process of buying the home she put us in touch with inspectors, financial, and helped us with how it is done in Tennessee and in coming from New York is a very different process. She is not only our realtor but through the whole process has become a very dear friend. She helps and cares when she doesn’t have to!!!!
