WELCOME HOME
Pilina's mission is to provide a holistic approach to property management in partnership with community development partners, local businesses, and non-profits. Pilina believes that we can prepare multifamily assets, their teams, and the community at-large for residents rather than preparing residents for our assets.
With our values, vision for a holistic approach to property management, and our owner's desire to lead with the aloha-spirit in mind, we offer you the home and lifestyle you deserve.
Find where you belong.

OUr TENETS
Pilina’s principal believes rest firmly in the foundation of Maslow’s Hierarchy. Our tenets are:
01 Shelter
Shelter is imperative to the betterment of our residents’ lives. Our multifamily and single-family homes provide the structure that residents’ need to create sustainable lifestyles.
02 employable skillsets
The development of viable, employable skill sets is integral to the residents’ personal longevity. Residents will improve their financial outcomes as their skillset develops.
03 connection + friendship
Connection and friendship help to emotionally strengthen residents and the community at large. It takes a village to create a fulfilling life. Continual connection is necessary to resident success.
04 an elevated status
An elevated status for each household allows a path to generational wealth. Adult household members with gainful employment, a stronger network, and deeper connections pass this mindset on to their children.
05 future changing
Continual access to mentorship provides the potential to change their own future and the future of each generation after them. Mentorship with an honest, thriving member of the community allows residents’ to see who they are capable of becoming.
