Principal Broker & Owner
Big Island real estate, handled by the broker who owns the firm.
Christi Mallicoat has been licensed since 2001 and closing Hawaii Island homes and land since 2003. When you call ReLife Realty, you reach the principal broker, not a front desk.
The principal-broker difference
Not a franchise desk. Not a part-timer. A record you can read.
Two decades of Hawaii Island closings under one broker who owns her own firm. Here is how that record was built.
Licensed on Hawaii Island
Christi earns her Hawaii real estate license and starts selling Big Island homes and land.
Earns her broker's license
She takes the broker exam, the credential that lets an agent run and own a brokerage rather than work under one.
The local expert on national TV
Featured as the Big Island property expert on Tiny House Hunting, "Living Tiny on Hawaii's Big Island" (Season 2, aired September 2015).
Opens her own shingle: ReLife Realty LLC
Christi founds ReLife Realty and becomes principal broker and owner, answering for every deal that carries the name.
Elected President, Hawai'i Island REALTORS
Her peers elect her to lead the island's association of real estate professionals for the year.
875+ Big Island closings, and counting
More than 875 Hawaii Island homes and lots listed and sold since 2003, from Pahoa to the Kona side.
About Christi
She owns the firm, so she owns the outcome.
Most agents hand you off. A junior does the showings, a coordinator does the paperwork, and the name on the sign is a brand, not a person. ReLife Realty runs the other way. Christi is the principal broker and the owner, which means the person you first talk to is the person who prices your home, negotiates your offer, and sits at your closing.
Big Island land is its own discipline. Lava zones, catchment water, county setbacks, and a lot's real buildability are where deals quietly fall apart. Christi has sold Hawaii Island dirt since 2003, and Turkel Design named her a preferred Hawaii County agent for its Axiom line of custom homes.
Buying from the mainland or from overseas? Roughly half of Big Island transactions start with someone who is not on-island yet. Remote closings, honest video walk-throughs, and straight ground truth are the everyday work here, not a special request.
How she works
One broker, the whole Big Island, every kind of deal.
Buying a home
Homes across East Hawaii and the Kona side, matched to your budget and the way you actually want to live here.
Selling your property
Pricing from real comps, staging guidance, and a broker who runs the sale herself from list to close.
Land and vacant lots
Buildability, lava zone, water, and access. Christi reads a Big Island lot for what it will and will not allow.
Building custom
A preferred Hawaii County agent for Turkel Design's Axiom homes, from finding the lot to breaking ground.
Relocating to Hawaii
Remote closings, video walk-throughs, and honest ground truth for buyers arriving from the mainland or abroad.
