Yvette Muta
Real Estate has always been an integral part of Yvette’s life. You could say her path to Real Estate was pre-destined during her early years. At a young age, Yvette’s mother, who is also a Realtor, would take her along to on client visitations, previewing properties and open houses. This early exposure set the foundations for Yvette’s interest in Interior Design and where she began to understand the importance of investing in Real Estate. Her family made the decision to begin investing in real estate early on. The equity that grew from these real estate investments provided Yvette with the opportunity to pursue her college education and has given her family many other benefits that may not have otherwise been available.
Yvette is client focused, reachable and committed! She takes pride in making sure that her clients know that they will have her full attention and enthusiasm. As a full-time real estate professional, Yvette understand how overwhelming the homeownership process can be and the importance of building trust by fostering open communication and being consistent with timely responses.
With 20+ years in the local Interior Design industry, Yvette is able to offer clients a unique skill set that brings a heightened sensitivity to the qualities and unique detailing that can add increased value to a property. Her clients appreciate this attention to detail and ability to evaluating the potential that a property may have to address their future real estate needs and goals.
Yvette has a passion for travel, music and the arts, all of which have always been a part of her life story. She’s had the great fortune to visit many exotic locations and experience their unique landscapes and cultures. But with as many places and awesome sights as Yvette has seen, there is no other place like Hawaii. She also has an immense love of all animals and spends much of her free time with her four-legged “fur-kids”. She enjoys attending local live-music events or putting together a menu to share with a gathering of friends and family.
