Lori Kaizawa

Born in Tokyo to a father from Hilo and mother from Fresno, Lori and her family moved to Kaneohe, Hawaii when she was two years old. She attended neighborhood public elementary and intermediate schools, then went on to ‘Iolani School, where she was in the first graduating class of girls. Lori then obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Literature from the University of Michigan, and then a Juris Doctorate from the University of Oregon School of Law.

Prior to becoming a REALTOR®, Lori worked as an attorney in Oregon and Hawaii, with an emphasis in civil litigation. While practicing law, Lori also lobbied at the State level, representing both private and public-sector clients in a wide variety of business and healthcare industries. Today, Lori’s real estate clients benefit from this background, as analysis, negotiation, and persuasion were ingrained in every aspect of her client representation. Lori’s clients also appreciate her understanding of legal issues specifically as they relate to real estate transactions. Lori’s ability to comprehend and explain the many legal documents and nuances involved in a transaction, and her insistence on protecting not only her clients’ current interests, but their future assets and estates, are highly valued and specialized skills that set Lori apart from other real estate agents.

Lori’s real estate practice is general and varied, encompassing all areas of Oahu as well as the occasional neighbor island transaction, including both residential and commercial properties with an additional emphasis in probate, conservatorship, and trust sales.

As your REALTOR® and advocate, Lori will communicate with you in the manner you prefer, address anticipated issues and concerns promptly and comprehensively, and pay attention to the details of your transaction, so you don’t have to. Lori will help you manage risk and negotiate results at each step along the way. Lori’s goal as your REALTOR® is to make your real estate experience as stress-free and seamless as possible.
