Your guide up here
A Realtor who lives the Upcountry life she sells
Most of Mauiʻs agents work the resort coast. Georgie built her name in the hills - and she practices what she lists. She lives off-grid in Haʻikū with orchards, gardens and a bit of livestock, so the realities of catchment water, ag zoning and a long county-meter waitlist arenʻt theory to her.
She has been featured on HGTVʻs Hawaii Life, hangs her license with Hawaiʻi Life Real Estate, and knows the difference between a Makawao town lot and a Kula ag parcel before you ever pull up to the gate.

Why it matters up here
Upcountry doesnʻt sell like the coast
A view lot in Kula and a condo in Kīhei are not the same purchase. Up in the hills, the questions that decide a deal are the ones a coastal agent never has to ask - and theyʻre exactly the ones Georgie asks first.
- Water. County meter, private well, or catchment - and how long the meter list really is.
- Zoning & CPRs. Ag dedication, second dwellings and what you may actually build.
- Elevation. Microclimate, sun, fog and frost shift block to block from Pāʻia to Kula.
- Access & systems. Shared roads, septic vs. cesspool, solar and off-grid setups.
The centerpiece
Upcountry, town by town
The hills arenʻt one market - each town has its own feel, its own buyers and its own fine print. Hereʻs how Georgie reads them.
2
Forest & ranch
Olinda
The high, misty edge above Makawao - eucalyptus and cook pine, big private parcels, cool nights and the last stop before the mountain.
Buyers love: privacy, acreage and forest quiet close to town.
3
Family & services
Pukalani
The practical heart of Upcountry - grocery, gas, schools and a golf course. Established subdivisions and the easiest commute down the hill.
Buyers love: convenience, schools and turn-key family homes.
4
Farm & view country
Kula
Rolling farmland famous for lavender, protea and jacaranda. Bi-coastal views, cool nights and ag lots where the land is part of the lifestyle.
Buyers love: the views, the growing room and the quiet.
5
Georgieʻs home turf
Haʻikū
Rainforest-green former plantation land - orchards, off-grid homesteads and hidden gulches. Georgieʻs own backyard, and she knows its roads.
Buyers love: greenery, privacy and grow-your-own land.
6
North Shore surf town
Pāʻia & Kuʻau
The islandʻs laid-back surf village - Hoʻokipa, Baby Beach, cafes and boutiques. Where the North Shore meets the road up to the hills.
Buyers love: walk-to-beach town life with real character.
