All of the Hawaiian Islands are surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, which is a beautiful and scenic body of water.
1435 Laamia St. (MLS# 1008129) is in escrow with an asking price of $1,595,000
Although many people would love to live on the water, there is a finite amount of oceanfront residential land, and consequentially it is usually very expensive. Others like myself feel that if you can’t live on the water then the next best thing is to be able to see the ocean. For that reason, over the years hillside or ridge types of residential areas have been developed.
Because it is impossible to cover them all at once, the focus is going to be on four of Oahu’s newer East Side Ridge Communities of Waialae Iki and Kahala Kua, with Hawaii Loa and Napali Haweo to be covered in a follow up blog. Both of these have ocean views that will see different vistas from Portlock Point to Diamond Head to Ewa, and even views of Molokai and Lanai on clear days! Read entire post →

If you’ve been, than you know: there aren’t many places in the world that can top Wailea when it comes to lifestyle. The weather is incredible; South Maui’s legendary “endless summer” makes it a beach day all year round. The whales leap from the water during season (December through March), within full view of the shore. And the manicured resort lifestyle, clean, green, lush, and wonderfully maintained, underscores the fact that you have truly arrived in paradise.
Wailea caters mostly to condo living, but lately, that’s come with a twist. The newer properties, like the spectacular Ho’olei (across from the Grand Wailea), Kai Malu (inland a half mile,with great ocean views), Kanani Wailea (bordering Kihei, at the north end of Wailea), and Papali (near the Palms condos) are more like single family homes in a condo setting.

These North Kohala coastal luxury “best buys” share sun-setting-into-ocean views (MLS# 235911)
What makes a $2.2 million home a “best buy”? Last night at dusk I was standing on a near-oceanfront lot with the developer of Ranch at Puakea who is about to break ground on his own home there. Referring to a listing I have at Puakea Ranch (MLS #235911) across the road, we mused that right now in North Kohala you can buy a luxury home on acreage for less than it will cost him to build, not even factoring in the cost of his 20-acre lot. Of course he’s besotted with his special spot and so building is the right choice for him. But looking at the four homes currently listed between Kohala Ranch and Hawi at around the $2.2 million price point, there is something to be said for being able to move right in!

I couldn’t help but reminisce the past at the recent Broker’s Open featuring various Wailea homes for sale, particularly when we arrived at 3934 Waakuala St. at Wailea Golf Estates (MLS# 328435).
You see, I know this property very well. In fact, I was the agent who sold the land to the buyer who built the home. I was also assigned to oversee the construction of this luxury Wailea home, and I represented the seller in selling the property in the year 2000. It sold for $3,400,000 then. Now, the property is listed for $5,900,000. In November of 2005, it sold for $5,650,000. Read entire post →
