Did all the properties sell at last Saturday’s Hawaii Life/Premiere Estates auction of land and homes? Not yet. Was the multi-property auction a success? One answer is that time will tell, as the auction is on-going until December 30th. Another answer is that there are auction buyers, sellers, and agents on the Big Island, Molokai, and [...]
The first property auction sponsored by Hawaii Life is less than a week away. In between showing my auction listing and answering questions about it and other auctions properties for prospective buyers, I seem to find myself spending a lot of time explaining how the auction works. An auction is not the most familiar purchase [...]
Which would you rather pay for an oceanfront lot in a gated community on the Big Island’s Kohala Coast (just a few miles north of the Mauna Kea Resort): $300,000 or $1,199,000?

On Saturday, November 26, 2011, just about three weeks from now, Hawaii Life’s first state-wide real estate auction will take place. The phone calls and emails are pouring in with questions! ”What can you tell me about these oceanfront lots, I notice they are up for auction?” ”My client wants to know if he can make an [...]

Looking for an innovative way to sell property in Hawaii? Auctions work.
How do you reach those buyers that are not being reached? Could using a well established auction company provide the results you need? This is a new concept for me, so let me share what we are learning in this exploration process. These well established auction companies are selling everything from high-end mansions to smaller homes and land through [...]
The first auction sale date came and went without offers, but as of today there is a bid showing in the second round of the on-line auction on the Hawi mansion (MLS# 244454) that is for sale by the bank after foreclosure. The current bid price is $4,224,000…which implies to me that there may be [...]
Interestingly enough, I have had three prospective buyers curious about the Villages Lehua (MLS# 242131) that is scheduled for auction at the end of this month.
As cliché as it may be—The Crown Jewel of Kahana is the most amazing home I have ever experienced in my entire life. I had the pleasure of viewing this property a couple days ago as I was on my way to go SUP (stand-up paddling). I’m glad that I did because I discovered that [...]

[...]
Monday’s auction of an oceanfront home and a penthouse villa at Waikoloa Beach Resort was almost overshadowed by other sales activity at the Kolea beachfront gated community. Although I can’t reveal the prices at which the two properties sold, I can say that the auction left attendees shaking their heads and muttering, “somebody just got a screaming [...]
