The Families who trusted us with the move
Over 450 Families have Bought or Sold a Home on Oʻahu with Tina Marie Gamble. These are their words, not ours. Last names stay off the page, because privacy matters more than proof.

Military Families and PCS Moves
Buying from three time zones away
Most of the Families on this page started the same way you might be starting right now, with orders in hand and a whole ocean between them and the Home they were about to Buy. If that is where you are, the PCS to Oʻahu guide walks through the timeline step by step.
We worked with Tina for over six months trying to purchase the perfect Home for us before we even landed in Oʻahu, so that once we arrived on island we would have a Home to call our own.
With the time difference between the UK and Hawaiʻi, she sent us videos and photos of every small detail, viewed Homes on our list, and made many offers. And believe me, there is no sugar coating anything. Tina will tell you the good, the bad, and the ugly. She does not want you to feel like you are getting cheated.
From our first Zoom meeting my husband and I felt a huge stress taken off of our shoulders, as Tina understood what our priorities were in finding our Home. Our Family had a big move coming to Hawaiʻi from the UK and Tina made sure we would have the perfect Home to fit our needs.
We are beyond grateful for Tina and her amazing team for all they have done, and continue to do, as we settle into our new Home.
Her communication was seamless, and she truly went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire journey. We cannot thank you enough for helping us find and Buy our first Home before we even landed on island 🌺
Tina is an outstanding Real Estate agent and goes above and beyond for your perfect Home. We worked with her during an overseas move and it was such a great experience that we recommend her to everyone looking to purchase a Home. We could not be more proud to call her a friend as well as our Realtor.
From the day we had our very first Zoom call back when we were still in Kentucky to the day we arrived on island, Tina has been nothing short of amazing! She has helped us purchase two Homes and Sell one, and every single transaction has been smooth and stress free.
What started as a working relationship has turned into a wonderful friendship.
First Homes and Island Buyers
You do not have to be Military to belong here
Plenty of these Families were renting on this island for years, quietly wondering whether owning was ever going to be possible. It was. If that sounds familiar, start with the Buyer resources.
Tina is THE BEST Realtor EVER! She treated me like family from the very beginning. Very attentive, fun, caring, and professional.
She heard and delivered on every single request for my dream Home, and assisted me through the process of purchasing my very first Home in Oʻahu. Gracias, thank you, mahalo 💜
Hands down the best Real Estate experience we have ever had. It is such a stressful experience to search for a Home in a place that is so new to you. Tina made us feel relaxed and secure.
I will never forget the day she messaged us and said, ‘Guys, I found your new Home.’ The house was not even out on the market yet, and it was everything we wanted. Almost two years later, we are happily living in that house, that we now call Home.
Tina is the best Realtor there is. I know she is Military focused, but we are not Military and she is absolutely amazing, Military or not!
Tina is absolutely amazing on every front. She is knowledgeable, professional, and truly an expert in her field. She guided our Family based on our desires to the perfect Home for us. We are so happy with our purchase and would recommend her to anyone we know Buying a Home.
We recently just moved to Oʻahu and Tina helped us find a new Home very quick. She made the entire process very smooth. We appreciate all her hard work and persistence to get us the best deal.
Tina made the experience easy and care free. Any concerns we may have had were addressed right away, and we knew that we had the best Realtor that the island could offer. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to Buy or Sell their Home. A true professional.
Sellers and PCS Timelines
When the orders say go and the Home has to Sell
Selling on a deadline is its own kind of pressure, whether the deadline comes from a set of orders or from the next chapter your Family already picked out. Here is how that has gone for other Families, and here is what Selling with us looks like.
I could not be happier with my Real Estate agent, Tina, who Sold my Home. Her expertise watching the market trends and her strategic approach resulted in a successful sale in under a month.
She navigated the entire process professionally, keeping me informed and easing my concerns. Quick responses to messages and calls showcased her dedication.
Tina was such a pleasure to work with in Selling our Home. She was honest, reliable, and always kept us informed throughout the process. She made what could have been a stressful experience so much easier, and her professionalism and kindness really stood out.
Really a great experience ending with making more money than expected. Quick, assertive, understanding, and experienced. Highly recommend.
My Family and I first met her when we were searching for a Home. She made the experience of Buying our first Home fun and exciting. Fast forward to when we decided to Sell, and Tina was our obvious choice to get it done.
She was very patient with our questions and concerns. In the end she got the deal done and we could not have been happier with the outcome.
Very recommended! Made the sale of my mother's Home very easy.
Absolutely loved working with Tina! She made the process stress free and made sure all our questions and concerns were addressed. She helped us Buy our first Home and to Sell, and I could not be more grateful for her hard work, knowledge and experience through the process.
Long After Closing Day
The part that happens after the keys
The relationship is not supposed to end at the closing table. Some of these Families have been part of this Ohana for years now, through second Homes, third moves, and a lot of check in texts that had nothing to do with Real Estate.
Tina is our Realtor for Life! Our Family has worked with her three times, and we will continue to turn to her for all of our future Real Estate needs.
Beyond her exceptional expertise, Tina is remarkable at maintaining genuine relationships with her clients. She consistently goes above and beyond even long after the transaction is complete, and that truly sets her apart.
Ever since she helped me Buy my Home in 2020, I could not be more grateful for her continued support. She has stayed in touch long after closing, checking in just to see how things are going and making me feel like more than just a client.
It is rare to find a Realtor who remains so invested years down the line.
Not only is Tina an amazing Realtor, but she is also genuinely one of the sweetest people I know. She treats every client like family. She puts her heart in everything she does, and her dedication sets her apart in this industry.
We have had the best experience with Tina Marie and her team! She communicates clearly every step of the way, and makes the entire Buying and Selling process so smooth. Would recommend to anyone looking for help with Real Estate needs.
With my situation being very unfortunate, Tina did not one time give up on me. There is not a task in this business she is not willing to work through, and that is priceless. You can tell this is way more than about money for her 💪🏼
Tina did a great job. She made herself available and worked with me to make sure I found the best possible house for my Family within my timeframe. I highly recommend Tina as your Real Estate Agent.

Questions About These Reviews
Before you reach out
Are these reviews from real clients?
Every one of them. Each review on this page comes from a Family who Bought or Sold a Home on Oʻahu with Tina Marie Gamble. Last names are left off on purpose, and so are addresses. Nothing here is written for them, and nothing here is invented.
Does Tina only work with Military Families?
No. Military relocation and VA loans are the specialty, and they are not the whole of the work. Local Families upsizing, first time Buyers who have been renting here for years, and Sellers moving into their next chapter are all on this page. If you want to own on this island, you are in the right place.
Can you really Buy a Home here before you arrive?
Yes, and several of the Families above did exactly that, some from the mainland and some from overseas. It runs on video walkthroughs, photos of the details listing photos never show, honest feedback on every property, and a Realtor standing in the Home on your behalf. The PCS to Oʻahu guide covers the timeline.
Which parts of Oʻahu do these Families live in?
Mostly Central and West Oʻahu: Mililani, Kapolei, Ewa Beach, Waipahu, and Waianae, plus Pearl City, Aiea, Wahiawā, Kailua, and Kāneʻohe. You can compare the neighborhoods here.
What does the first conversation actually look like?
It is a conversation, not a pitch. Your timeline, your reporting date if you have one, the gate or the office you are driving to, and the things your Family will not compromise on. Call or text 808-748-1171, email Team@EpicHawaiiHomes.com, or start the conversation here.
