Who We Are
Our Team
Darrin Araki | CCIM, RA
Darrin created Investment Property Solutions as a way to help Hawaii families that own commercial and residential investment assets. He saw that institutional & sophisticated investors often had access to professional investment analysis and guidance while many families were left trying to figure things out on their own. Investment Property Solutions was made to bridge this gap and makes high quality investment analysis, problem solving and advisory services available to everyday families in Hawaii.
Darrin has earned the CCIM (Certified Commercial Investment Member) designation. CCIM designees are recognized as leading experts in commercial investment real estate. He is versed in both commercial and residential investments with experience in multifamily, retail, industrial, office, single family homes, condos and land.
Darrin transitioned into Hawaii real estate from the faith based non-profit sector as the former executive director of the Hawaii Pastors Roundtable. He is a family man with four amazing daughters and has been married to his wife and best friend for over 20 years.
Darrin was born and raised on Oahu and earned his Bachelor’s degree in Business Management from the University of Hawaii, Manoa. He also holds a Master’s in Christian Studies from Pacific Rim Christian College.
