Looking for things to do on Oʻahu this October? 🎃🌺

October is one of my favorite months here, pumpkin patches, fall festivals, Halloween events and plenty happening around the island.

Swipe through for what’s happening this month and swipe to the end to see three Oʻahu homes that went under contract this month and the one thing they all had in common. 👀🏡

A few to put on your calendar:

🎃 Waimānalo Country Farms Fall Harvest Festival — through November 11

👻 Haunted Plantation — select nights throughout October in Waipahu

🌈 Honolulu Pride Parade + Festival — October 17 in Waikīkī

🎃 Aloun Farms Pumpkin Patch — October 17–18 + 24–25 in Kunia

And about those homes...

Different areas. Different price points. Condos and single-family homes.

But they all had one thing in common: they presented well.

Clean, uncluttered and either professionally staged or presented like they were.

You don’t necessarily need to professionally stage your home to sell it but how it looks online and how it feels when a buyer walks through the door matters.

Comment GUIDE and I’ll send you my Oʻahu Guide. 🌺

These are 7 local businesses worth knowing on Oʻahu — whether you just moved here, have family coming to visit, or simply want to spend more of your money supporting local.

🌿 Koba’s Nursery in Waimānalo. Need plants for your new place? This family-owned nursery has been growing on Oʻahu for generations. Grab a golf cart and explore acres of tropical plants, fruit trees, palms and more.

☕ Holoholo Drive-Thru Espresso on Windward Oʻahu. Good coffee and redbull infusions without getting out of your car? Say less. With multiple Windward locations, this is an easy one to add to your morning routine.

🏄‍♀️ Moniz Family Surf in Waikīkī. Family-owned and operated by the Moniz family, offering surf lessons, stand-up paddle and even outrigger canoe surfing. Perfect for visiting family, finally learning to surf or if you just want someone to help you catch the waves.

👗 Manuhealiʻi in Kailua + Honolulu. A Hawaiʻi family-owned clothing brand creating original prints inspired by Hawaiʻi, with pieces for women, men and keiki. Skip the mass-produced aloha wear and find something designed right here in Hawaiʻi instead.

🎃 Waimānalo Country Farms in Waimānalo. Come for the pumpkins and fresh lemonade, stay for the farm animals, seasonal events and gorgeous Koʻolau views. Follow them for what’s happening throughout the year.

🌺 Eco Mindful Lei in Honolulu. Sustainable lei for special occasions plus hands-on lei-making workshops and private events. Follow them for upcoming seasonal workshops too — including holiday wreath making.

♻️ Protea Thrift in Kailua. A locally owned, curated secondhand clothing shop where you can shop AND sell. A great stop when you want something new to you without buying new.

Tag the local Oʻahu businesses I missed. I’m always adding to the list.

Some homes feel staged.
This one feels cared for. 🥰

Not to be dramatic, 🎭 but this is the kind of home that lowers your cortisol the second you walk in.

This beautifully maintained end-unit townhome in Waikele offers 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and over 1,300 square feet of living space with a spacious two-car attached garage.

Every inch feels intentional. The kind of clean that immediately tells you this home has been loved, maintained, and genuinely enjoyed.

The upgraded kitchen features soft-close cabinets and pullout drawers. The split AC units keep the living space and primary bedroom cool year-round. And the indoor-outdoor flow is what makes this one really special.

You have both a fenced front and back lanai, meticulously maintained landscaping, and lush waist-high potted plants that make the entire property feel peaceful and private.
And honestly… the patio plants alone deserve their own listing photos.

Even the garage is immaculate.

This is what “move-in ready” is actually supposed to look like. Not a rushed flip. Not trendy finishes hiding problems. Just a peaceful, beautifully maintained Waikele home that feels good to be in.

Located near Costco, Waikele Premium Outlets, Waikele Country Club, dining, parks, and easy H1 access.

The people who buy this home are going to feel it immediately.

This is what I’m actually doing at every showing on Oʻahu.
Comment START and let’s talk strategy.

Buying on Oʻahu isn’t just about walking into a house and deciding if it feels good. This market is too expensive and too unique for that.

I’m looking at things most buyers don’t even know to ask about yet.

The moisture issues hiding behind fresh paint. The layout that sounds fine on paper but lives terribly day to day. The building with rising maintenance fees. The commute that looks manageable until you do it every morning.

The neighborhood that holds value better long term. The flip that was done fast instead of done well. The street that floods. The parking situation no one mentioned. The “deal” that becomes expensive six months later.

And honestly? Sometimes my job is telling people not to buy the house.

Especially on Oʻahu, where one rushed decision can cost you years of financial recovery.

I’ve been through enough transactions across Kailua, Ewa Beach, Kapolei, Mililani, Salt Lake, Pearl City, Kāneʻohe, and town to know what deserves a second look and what’s actually normal for island living.

My job is to protect your future, not just unlock doors.
Whether you’re PCS’ing, using your VA loan, relocating to Hawaiʻi, or trying to figure out if buying here even makes sense for your lifestyle and budget, this is what working with me looks like: strategic, honest, and very in your corner.
