Tehane Wurdeman - REMAX Hawaii

What Drives Everything I Do
You know, people ask me all the time what makes me tick as both a person and a realtor. The answer comes down to three simple truths that guide every decision I make: people first, integrity always, and live to give. These aren't just catchphrases I put on my business cards – they're the foundation of how I approach life.

People first means exactly what it sounds like. At the end of the day, real estate is about families finding their place in the world, and that's deeply personal. When you work with me, you're getting someone who genuinely listens, keeps you in the loop every step of the way, and treats your goals like they're my own. I've built my career on relationships that last long after we've signed the closing documents, because I believe the best business happens when people trust each other completely.

Integrity always is non-negotiable for me. Real estate can get complicated fast – there's financing, legal considerations, construction issues, you name it. When challenges come up (and they always do), you need someone in your corner who will tell you the truth, even when it's not what you want to hear. I've got the experience and knowledge to navigate these waters, and more importantly, I'll always steer you toward what's right for you, not what's easiest for me.

Live to give is where my heart really shows. I'm not satisfied unless you're absolutely thrilled with both your results and your experience working with me. But here's what makes me especially proud: every time we close a transaction together, we're also helping a local family experiencing homelessness here in Hawaii. Your dream home purchase or successful sale directly contributes to someone else getting back on their feet. That's the kind of impact that makes this work meaningful.

This is who I am, and this is how I do business. Simple as that.
