Originally hailing from the eastern seaboard ,
Beverly Giza tells it like it is: "the first time I set foot
in Hawaii I felt like I had arrived home." After receiving
her BS in Geology from Mount Holyoke College , Bev made it a
priority to return "home" to Hawaii, earning her Master of
Science degree in Geology and Geophysics from UH Manoa .
"Lucky you live Hawaii" Bev would tell herself as she mapped
a large part of the geology of the leeward side of Kohala
Mountain on the Big Island for her thesis and planned her
eventual return. Worked in mining and petroleum geology for
years in Wyoming, Arizonan, and Georgia – something Bev did
before finally returning home to the Big Island in 2002.
Positioned as the Kohala Mountain expert, Bev knows how to
take care of the land! Bev enjoys assisting her clients with
all aspects of home ownership in Hawaii and in her personal
time enjoys practicing hula, yoga, walking her dogs around
Kohala Ranch, and visiting the island's beaches as much as
possible. Welcome home, Bev. |

Dahl Young is a Big
Island girl! Born and raised in Hilo, Dahl is grateful and
proud of her Big Island roots, but that’s not all she’s
known. With a degree in Asian Studies from UH Manoa, Dahl
traveled to Japan on a student exchange program and then
lived on Oahu for 14 years before returning to the Big
Island to raise her family in Kamuela. “I wanted my kids to
experience the same laid-back and relaxed lifestyle that I
enjoyed as a child,” Dahl says with quiet confidence. Real
Estate has always been a true passion for Dahl - weekends
being an opportunity to cruise through open houses and keep
an eye on the market. “My mother always encouraged me to
pursue this business because she felt my love for real
estate coupled with the patience I have while working with
many different personalities would be a perfect combination
for success.” When her mother passed away, Dahl finally
understood the importance of living a meaningful life every
day, and thus began a new career as a full-time Realtor with
her inheritance. Focused on the business of helping Sellers
and Buyers, Dahl’s work ethic would make her mother proud,
and every bit the success her mother had always imagined
she’d be. |
