Fran McDonald
Realtor Associate
Accredited Buyer Representative
Makai Properties, LLC
Fran is an ex-Navy wife who has settled in Kauai with her family after 22 years of moving wherever the Navy called her husband to serve.
Fran had a very succesful first year working in real estate on Kauai in 2006, with over $7 million in gross sales. In 2007, Fran earned the designation of Accredited Buyer Representative. The Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR) designation is the benchmark of excellence in buyer representation. This coveted designation is awarded to real estate practitioners by the Real Estate Buyer's Agent Council (REBAC) of the National Association of REALTORS who meet the specified educational and practical experience criteria.
Fran brings experience from working in real estate sales in the Jacksonville Beaches area of Florida. She specialized in the Ponte Vedra / Sawgrass Resort & Country Club (home of the famous TPC Golf Course), as well as the North Beaches area and helped "break-ground" at the brand new development of Jacksonville Golf & County Club. This background has given Fran detailed knowledge in resort condo, home, and lot sales, as well as experience in working with builders and developers.
Her husband, Mark, or Mac, as he is known on the base and by close friends, was a Commander and helicopter pilot in the US Navy at the Pacific Missile Range Facility/NAS Barking Sands in west Kauai. He retired from the Navy in 2004 after 22 years of active duty and is now working back out at the Navy base, PMRF, as a civilian helicopter pilot and airfield contractor.
Having been stationed in Hawaii before, the McDonald family felt they had moved back home and decided that Kauai was their 'last move'. Natives of Florida, they and their children, Kelsey and Kyle, love the ocean and the spectacular outdoors of Kauai. Kelsey is attending Scripps College in California, while Kyle is in high school at Island School.
The entire family loves to paddle outrigger canoes, each one racing with competitive teams. Fran and Mark are active members of Kukui'ula Outrigger Canoe Club. When not paddling canoes, their favorite family outings include hiking the gorgeous mountains, camping on the beautiful beaches and scuba diving in the spectacular ocean of Kauai.
You can contact the Fran at (808) 635-0165, or send her an e-mail at FraninKauai@aol.com. She would be happy to show you the aloha that she and her family have discovered, and help you find your home in paradise.
