Kona Big Island Realtor - Hawaii

About Penn

Meet Kona Realtor, Penn Henderson: Born and raised in Colorado, Penn moved to Kona in 2001 with an affinity for the Big Island’s natural beauty, warm climate, stunning beaches, and massive volcanic mountains. His Rocky Mountain roots have thrived on the Big Island, where endless adventures, explorations, and new discoveries have become an elemental part of Penn’s active Hawaii lifestyle.

 

With 20-years notched into his belt, Penn has developed extensive knowledge and appreciation for the Big Island, as well as a deep understanding of its diverse climates, various topographies, Hawaiian culture, and the unique communities that make it such a special place to live.

Penn's Journey to the Big Island

“I often get asked how I ended up on the Big Island? Simply put, the signs were there. After 29-years of enduring the cold weather for nearly eight months of the year, the call to Hawaii grew strong. The time had come, and in my mind, the notion of moving to Kona was “now, or never.”

 

Within six weeks, Penn listed and sold his townhouse, made an offer to buy a Big Island home and closed on it, packed a 20-ft container with his household belongings, coordinated travel & quarantine requirements for two dogs, drove to Los Angeles with the dogs, shipped his car from Long Beach, scrambled through post 9-11 airport security –  ultimately landing in Kona on Oct. 28, 2001.

It has been said that Realtors are a mirror of their clients and this agent-client synergy is an important ingredient for a smooth and successful real estate experience. An introductory meeting is a great place to start – and a chance for everyone to ask questions, get acquainted, and begin defining objectives & goals to move forward with.

If you are thinking of buying or selling real estate in West Hawaii, I look forward to an opportunity to help make it happen.

About Penn Henderson - Kona Realtor

Firsthand Real Estate Knowledge

In 2004, Penn found the ultimate piece of Kona paradise, and along with his family, built their home from the ground up. From a young age, Penn has always enjoyed carpentry, design, and landscaping – and even helped build a couple of houses while in college.

Building our Kona home was a life-changing experience. It wasn’t easy, and there were a lot of highs and lows along the way. But in the end, we got it done and had turned our dreams into reality. Now, being able to share this experience and knowledge in helping others find their own dream home is incredibly gratifying for me. Truly, the icing on the cake!

Penn is a genuine family-man, enjoying these special times with his two boys and wife, Rani.

Highly involved with the Big Island sports community and local Kona events, the Henderson family can often be found at many of the Big Island swim-bike-run races.

Interests

Prior to Kona, Penn was an avid skier logging well over 3,000 ski days during his early years of racing and then later while ski-instructing throughout college. 

Upon moving to the Big Island, he quickly shifted gears, embracing all that the Big Island has to offer. Cycling, hiking, and ocean swimming are amongst Penn’s favorite hobbies – especially when accompanied by his family.
