Kihei, HI – August 3, 2023 - Coldwell Banker Island Properties, a renowned leader in Hawaii's residential real estate sector, is thrilled to announce the launch of its new commercial real estate division. With this expansion, the company broadens its services to include commercial real estate sales and commercial property management.
This move underscores Coldwell Banker Island Properties' commitment to holistic real estate solutions, effectively serving the needs of clients across both residential and commercial spheres. The new commercial division will provide comprehensive services, helping clients to buy, sell, lease, and manage commercial properties throughout the Hawaiian Islands.
"Coldwell Banker Island Properties has always been committed to providing unmatched real estate services in the Hawaiian region," said Steve Houle, President of Coldwell Banker Island Properties.

The commercial division's team will leverage its vast knowledge and experience to assist clients in navigating the complexities of commercial real estate, providing valuable insights on market trends and opportunities. The new division is led by commercial real estate veterans Brian Yano and Chris Millen who both joined Coldwell Banker Island Properties from JLL.
