David Moyer

I have over 25 years of real estate sales and property management experience in Honolulu, O’ahu, Hawaii.

Born in Agana, Guam, I was raised between California, Florida, and Hawaii. Most of my adult life has been spent living and working in Honolulu, Hawaii.

My career began in 1999 with commercial real estate broker, Colliers Monroe Friedlander. I transitioned to residential real estate in 2001 when I joined Prudential Locations. I actively engaged in real estate investing between 2000 and 2015, acquiring eight residential properties in Honolulu with a combined 14 rental units.

Taking advantage of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I worked as the Executive Vice President and eventually President & CEO of Century 21 Brazil Real Estate. In this role I was instrumental in introducing the iconic global brand to the Brazilian market, opening more than 120 independently owned and operated franchises in 20 states and the Federal District between 2008-2014. Much of my time in Brasil was spent implementing best practices and marketing techniques throughout our franchise system. During this time I learned Portuguese, married, and to this day speak both languages fluently, although my Portuguese is getting rusty.

They say you can take the boy from the island but not the island from the boy, and this was certainly true in my case. After seven years living between Sao Paulo and Honolulu, I grew homesick for our island lifestyle and working at the brokerage level, so I returned home in 2014, reactivated my Hawaii real estate broker’s license (RB-18853), and began working as the Principal Broker of Hawaii Sands Realty in 2015.

I am grateful to live in our beautiful islands and truly enjoy helping my clients to buy, sell, and professionally manage what are often their most valuable investment(s) and, by doing so, ensuring that quality long-term housing is available for our island residents.
