It’s another one of those pristine days on the Big Island’s Kohala Coast! You might ask, “How would you know, since Hawaii real estate is in high gear, you’re up to your ears in contracts (not complaining), and staring at your monitor for hours?” Well, I’ll tell you why…because one of my favorite all-time clients just [...]
Who Doesn’t Want to Live in Wailuku Town??? Wailuku has a fascinating historical legacy, evident in its unique influence in building, quaint streetscapes and georgeous vistas. It was the home of Maui’s most famous rulers and the site of Kamehameha’s victory in 1790 at Iao Valley. These powerful influences that shaped the town remain today as Wailuku was designated [...]
Increasingly in the luxury end of the Kohala Coast Resort real estate market, we find among our buyers close-knit families who often travel with at least three generations, or both sets of grandparents, or several adult siblings. For these buyers, a three-bedroom condo or home is a bare minimum; lately we’ve had some clients for [...]
This is a brand new home that went into foreclosure right after it was completed. It is located in Wailuku, which is 10 minutes from the airport on the northern side. This is in a great central location for anyone who wants a regular home instead of the tourist types in our resort towns. This [...]
Are you looking for a great buy on a bank-owned (REO) property in Princeville? I just listed this first floor end condominium (MLS# 251048). It offers views out to a tree-lined path to Anini Beach and beyond to the Prince Golf Course.
My newest short sale listing is in the Wailua Houselots (MLS# 251238). The houselots are only a few minutes walk to Wailua Bay, a good beach for swimming or kite surfing. It’s a simple, single wall construction home with multiple lanai and a carport. The lender is Wells Fargo and with Wells’ use of the [...]
There are currently four “bargains” in the Villages at Mauna Lani; will you be one of the lucky buyers of these few remaining deals?
Halii Kai is not the only Kohala “gold coast” resort where the developer’s close out sale is the news as we head in to the high season for vacation and second home sales in Hawaii. The developer of Kauna’oa at Mauna Kea Resort has put three of the Halia Hale paired townhomes and one vacant [...]
We blogged recently about Unit A4, the only townhouse available at the Waikoloa Beach Villas. It was listed at $450,000 then and we thought it was a good deal. These 3 bedroom townhomes sold in the mid $800K range at the height of the market. The list price on A4 has just been reduced to $429K, [...]
This is the best value in Kapalua Ridge. Don’t miss out! This spacious and upgraded ocean view town home has 1 bedroom and 2 bathrooms (MLS# 345932) in over 1,100 square feet of living space. This unit is located centrally, so it is close to the pool, the ocean, and all the Kapalua amenities like golf [...]
For a lot of buyers, it makes no sense to buy a Maui condo without an ocean view. It makes equal sense, for those with large visiting family or with plans to retire on Maui later, to buy a 2-bedroom unit rather than a less practical 1-bedroom.
Unit A4 is the only townhouse available at the Waikoloa Beach Villas and it’s in a great location overlooking the lawn and garden area, just steps to the pool, workout room, and BBQ’s. Unit A4 (MLS# 243992) is 1,874 sq. ft. with one bedroom downstairs, and two bedrooms and a loft upstairs. This unit has [...]
This property features two homes that are currently configured as four rentals on a 10,000+ square foot flag lot in Kihei (MLS# 350214), close to beaches and all South Kihei conveniences. It is listed at $439,000. It is currently rented and has been consistently rented for the past six years with two very long-term tenants, [...]
This one bedroom/one bathroom condo (MLS# 342473) with 777 sq. feet is situated on the 10th floor, so there are unobstructed, direct oceanfront views from this Royal Kahana unit 1014. Priced at $350K, the owners have been chasing the market for two years and I think they have finally found the sweet spot. This is [...]
