Lava Rock Realty
Peggy Yuan, owner and principal broker of Lava Rock Realty, says she always had a dream of opening her own real estate company since she got her broker’s license in 1995. She moved to Hawai‘i Island from Honolulu in 1998 and, in 2006, found the “perfect location” in Waimea. Feeling the timing was right, she says she made her dream come true.
After five years in Waimea, Lava Rock Realty has recently moved to a new location in the same town. “The new location gives us easier access, more parking spaces and better visibility,” Yuan says.
Not having the recognition of a franchise, she has worked hard to establish a brand name. When she introduced herself during her first year in business, people’s responses were mostly, “Who?” Now, five years later she is hearing, “I’ve seen your signs,” and “Your signs are everywhere!”
Lava Rock Realty represents local, mainland and international buyers and sellers of real estate.
“Many of our agents are long-time kama’aina who contribute our expert knowledge of the market to providing our clients with in-depth understanding and honest advice about Big Island real estate. We also speak six languages to further assist our international clients,” she says.
As a childhood immigrant to the U.S,, Yuan speaks four languages: English, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, and Taiwanese. She grew up in her family’s import/export/retail businesses, which, as a result has helped her as a business owner today.
