Our Founders- Jack and Johnny Nowell

In 1983, Jack and Johnny Nowell embarked on a journey to transform their aspirations of establishing a real estate brokerage on Maui into reality. This vision materialized with the founding of Ridge Realty Rentals and has been going strong ever since.

Their commitment to integrity and values set them apart from the rest, making every transaction a testament to honesty and transparency. Today, Ridge Realty Rentals stands resilient, having weathered the passage of time on the solid foundation laid by Jack and Johnny.

For Jack and Johnny, success wasn't gauged in mere numbers; it was reflected in the joy they brought to those discovering their own slice of paradise. At day's end, their fulfillment and happiness stemmed from the smiles gracing their clients' faces, a testament to the meaningful impact they made on others.
