Elle Zhang and Ryan Lee Sharpe, Oahu REALTORS® with eXp Realty

Meet Elle

I'm Elle Zhang, and that's my husband, Ryan.

Originally from China, I fell in love with Hawaii during a vacation in 2003. I moved to Maui from Long Beach, California, in 2004, and relocated to Oahu in 2005, which has been my home ever since. My real estate career began in mid-2005, and over the years, my broad international reach and mainland connections have proven to be a valuable asset for my clients when selling their homes. Throughout my career, I have repeatedly been recognized as a Top Lister and Top Producer, including accolades as a Hawaii Business Magazine Top Performer at eXp Realty in 2026, a Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist, and a Million Dollar Guild member. Today, Ryan and I call Waikiki home.

My husband, Ryan Sharpe, joined me in the business in 2017 after serving in the military for nine years and graduating from UH. Together, we have built a strong husband-and-wife team backed by our network, My Oahu Agent, which includes listing and escrow specialists, marketing professionals, professional photographers, staging staff, and legal consultants. Supported by eXp Realty, we offer a comprehensive, one-stop experience for buying and selling real estate.

Our core objective is simple: to sell your home quickly, for the highest possible price, and with the least amount of hassle using our proven 20-Step Selling System. We focus entirely on your family's goals—maximizing your profits, minimizing costs, and ensuring a smooth transaction from start to finish.

When I am not serving my clients, I love spending time with my family, practicing power yoga, and giving back to our community through volunteer work with New Hope Christian Fellowship, the American Red Cross, and local homeless shelters.

Please let me know if you have any questions or if you would like to discuss how we can assist you with your real estate needs.

Mahalo,
Elle

Elle and Ryan help us buy our home with VA assumable loan with very attractive rate. They were very communicative and promptly answered calls and emails, keeping us informed about every development. Their expertise in the local market were unmatched. They provided us with a detailed analysis of market trends and they advocated for us throughout the negotiation process. They were very helpful, friendly, professional and made us feel we were their only clients. Once we closed they delivered all the documents that we signed in one neatly organizer binder that went above and beyond our expectations. We definitely recommend Elle and Ryan to anyone interested in buying or selling a home.

Elle and Ryan epitomize excellence in their field. Previously, we had entrusted the sale of our appropriately priced home in Mililani, situated within one of Hawaii's premier public-school districts, to another agent from August 2023 to February 2024. Despite being in escrow and garnering interest, our property languished on the market due to a lack of feedback or communication from the agent. Recognizing the need for a change, we turned to Elle and Ryan, who had persistently reached out to us. Their attention to detail was evident from the start as they personalized their approach by storing our names in their contacts. Upon listing our home with them in March, it took a mere two weeks to secure a contract, with a backup offer in tow. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Elle and Ryan for orchestrating such a seamless and stress-free transaction.

Elle and Ryan are nothing short of incredible. After a long and unfruitful process of trying to sell our home, we found Elle and Ryan. We followed there recommendations and our home sold immediately! They are VERY responsive and attentive. I am so thankful for them. If you want a GREAT realtor, you cant get any better.

Zillow review

Elle Zhang and husband Ryan sold my condo within 30 days, as it was previously on the market for over 90 days. They went above and beyond, and took great care and concern to ensure the process was stress-free from start to finish. They spent hours answering my questions, providing specific data regarding how many homes they sell, and how long the listings typically stay on the market, before and after their agency list properties for sale. From the time the home list to closing is absolutely remarkable! The team is knowledgeable of current market trends, and "top notch" with their service, and 100% profesional at all times. They were truly amazing. A great team to work with! I think you would be hard pressed to find a better Realtor. Five stars! COL Gregory A. Johnson, USA, Retired

Zillow review

Ryan and Elle are by far the best real estate specialists in the Honolulu Area. They have the inside knowledge of all the best deals. I don't know how they did it but they negotiated a very good deal for a high-end condo for me. If you are surfing the web for a real estate specialist I will save you time and just give them a call. They know of all the good deals. I had to get out of Waikiki because of all the zombies. Now I am in a safe gated condo complex and can sleep at night and not be woken up by the endless ambulances, fire and police sirens.
