Our purpose has always been to culture-shape and change the traditions of real estate with the ethics of our company and educate our clients about what makes us different from any other brokerage. We lead with aloha, and our intentions start with us, personally; we make the amount of realness, empathy, and passion that goes into is felt with ROOF as a brand and brokerage. One of the mentors we reference throughout our company and require our crew read, is a book by Rosa Say from her book Managing with Aloha. We use the word Mālama since our main purpose in the real estate world is to help and care for our all of our clients. Rooted within this value of Mālama is the concept of mālamalama. In their Hawaiian Dictionary, Mary Kawena Pukui and Samuel H. Elbert define mālamalama as the “light of knowledge, clarity of thinking or explanation, enlightenment” where those things one considers will wonderfully become “shining, radiant [and] clear.” Your path is an enlightened one for you when you are taking care of certain things along your way. You serve them, protect them, and honor them, and in doing so you feel better. You become better which is every intent we have for our company.
