Haiku Maui pole house on acreage, with BIG viewsShowing off my new Haiku Maui listing that just hit the market, and it's getting a lot of attention.  It's a 2-story pole house, very solidly built with quality components and finishes.  And the views...... are outstanding, with so much ocean and greenery!28 S. Honokala Rd. unit A is the main house portion of a 2 part CPR development.  CPR means Condominium Property Regime whereby a larger agricultural property is divided into (usually) 2 parts, A and B, with dedicated land for each part.  There are governing documents that explain all the details, but think of it more like a subdivision of sorts.  In this case, unit A comes with 2.499 acres of land that can be used for farming.  Unit B comes with 1.74 acres of usable farm land.28 S Honoka... 10/01/2023

Oceanfront 454 Ho'olawa Rd is getting lots of exposureMy new north shore Maui listing has hit the market, and getting plenty of eyeballs on it.  We had a couple of broker open events with a good turnout of Maui agents.  The feedback was all positive for this lovely and unique cottage with detached garage on 2 green acres.  It really stands out and creates a lot of interest, with it's unusual look for the area. The concept is not what you'd expect for Hawai'i, but it appeals to those who want something different.  A local team of architects and builders made this dream become a reality, and it immediately won an award for Best Architecture on Maui when it was completed.  It's been featured in print magazines as well as online.Currently it's creating a stir in the luxury market online, an... 05/25/2023

105 E Kuiaha Rd, Haiku Maui - video + drone shotsI'm trying out a new drone operator to get some aerial shots and video at this Haiku Maui listing.  Because the private valley is hard to see on a drive-by, it will help those buyers who have a hard time visualizing what the rest of the property looks like.The house and cottage are right by the road, but the rest of the 2 acres is very private and quite secluded as you'll see.  Check out the video below of the camera slowly rising up out of the valley and taking in the surroundings of Haiku and the nearby ocean.Haiku is very sparsely populated, with many undeveloped areas.  For those who enjoy open space and privacy, it's attractive, and also much cheaper than the developed resort regions by the beaches.  The lush greenery is all natural ... 04/28/2023

Selling homes in your own neighborhoodAgents - do you like to sell homes and land in your own neighborhood?  It makes it easy for travel and of course you know the area well.  I think we all have an advantage when we sell properties closer to "home".  We understand the weather and climate.  We know some of the history of the area, like who the neighbors are and what's happening nearby.This new listing in Haiku Maui is really close to where I live, and I walk by it when I do the neighborhood "loop" walk - a 2 mile country road that meanders through the jungle.  It's not my listing, but I'd love to find a buyer who'll be my future neighbor!130 N.

Above are the flowers which come out at night or early morning.Below are the ripe pink fruits.  We planted a bunch of vines 3 years ago and this year we harvested over 20 fruits, and still a few more to come.  These vines are super easy to grow in Haiku Maui and we're planting more!I slice them in half and then cut the halves into slices with the skin on so they're easy to pick up.  They you just bite the centers and eat the fruit, while discarding the pink peel.  They have a texture sort of like a kiwi fruit - with the tiny black seeds that you eat, but they're sweet and not tart like a kiwi - just soft and sweet with a little crunch of seeds... very refreshing.Thanks for reading my Maui blog...Buying or selling real estate on Maui?  That's what I do.  Let me help YOU.Georgie Hunter R(... 09/16/2022

My jade vine is flowering for the first time!We planted this tropical jade vine 2 years ago, just as the pandemic was becoming the big news of the day.  It was a skinny little wisp of a vine in a flower pot, wrapped around a stick of bamboo - so frail and delicate that I wondered if it would survive.  Of course, in Haiku Maui it's hard NOT to grow anything, so I was confident it would be okay.We found a home in the ground where it could climb up some mock orange bushes, and waited, and watered, and waited some more.  The tendril climbed into the tree and kept going up and up - grew a few leaves and that was it.  Finally, earlier this month I looked for some flowers, and was pleasantly surprised to find 3 long dangling "flower" strands that I hadn't noticed before.  They're about 15" lon... 03/14/2022
