It is with great excitement that we welcome Christa N. Kearns to the Corcoran Pacific brokerage in Haleiwa, Oahu!

With over $101.5M in sales and a track record of success in iconic coastal markets, Christa brings deep industry knowledge and a distinctive, design-forward perspective to Oʻahu’s real estate landscape. Her multifaceted background in sales, architectural drafting, and interior design—combined with a degree in Historic Preservation and Community Planning—positions her as a dynamic force in the field. A specialist in lifestyle-driven relocation, luxury properties, and strategic marketing, she now proudly serves clients across the island as part of Corcoran Pacific Properties.

Christa’s job is to help people find a home—but for 14 years, she couldn’t seem to find her own. Originally from Westhampton Beach, a small surf town in the Hamptons, she built a thriving career across some of the country’s most coveted coastal markets—from the Hamptons to San Diego to Charleston. But no matter how beautiful the setting, something always felt… off.

Each winter, she found herself drawn back to Oʻahu. It became her place to recharge, reflect, and quietly ask herself where she truly belonged. Eventually, the answer revealed itself: the place she kept returning to wasn’t just a seasonal escape—it was home all along.

Embracing a youthful, tech-savvy, and client-first approach, Christa has helped welcome 88+ new neighbors to their next chapter. Her thoughtful use of data, marketing, and design empowers buyers and sellers alike to move confidently in today’s dynamic, post-pandemic market.

Her professional experience includes collaborative fieldwork with the Charleston Board of Architectural Review, the Historic Society, and the City Planning Department, where she helped draft restoration plans for Mt. Zion AME Church. She also refined her design sensibility through an internship with the AD-featured showroom Fritz Porter.

Outside of her professional life, Christa leads an active, outdoor lifestyle. Whether paddleboarding, fishing, paddling, hiking, playing tennis, or skiing, she embraces every opportunity for adventure—and her suitcase is always packed.

Around town, she’s known for her vibrant energy and community spirit—whether reading in a beach chair, biking through the neighborhood, picking up a sandwich at the market, or striking up a conversation with the nearest stranger.

Christa is thrilled to offer her extensive experience and approachable style to every client. Her natural ability to connect and deliver a deeply personalized experience makes her a standout in the Hawaiʻi market.

And if you’re wondering what finally made her stay for good? It was simple: the people. Christa can’t wait to welcome you to the community she now calls home!
