Just recieved a call from a client, Hey Lance - whats my Kailua Village unit 610 worth these days. Now you would have to know that  I had this in escrow for him at $250,000 3 years ago, (fell out - so he pulled it) so I need to be a little delicate with my answer, and he is up there in the years, so that adds a Little more concern to what i'm about to tell him, I mean there is no one around to help him up off the ground when I give him this news - but hey - it is what it is - As were talking and I am pulling up listings, I figure here is my break, I will get him to sit down at his computer to look at the comps with me - That way I dont have to be concerned about his falling down. Lets see, ground floor just sold at $74,000 - Nothing - didn't here a thump on the other end, just kind chec... 09/15/2010

I just had the bank counter an offer we had in on this 3 bedroom, 2 bath condo over at Alii Lani - bank said $175,000 - incredible pricing, considering a 2 bedroom closed today in there for $180,000. THE BUYER WALKED - I know - it happens all the time - I have over 20 short sale closings and I cant think of a single one that closed with the original Buyer - unless I was also the buyers agent. You can talk to other agents until you are blue in the face - PREPARE, PREPARE,PREPARE your buyer for the WAIT - just rarely ever happens. Anyway - back to this deal - the only other 3 bedroom 2 bath unit that has closed in there recently for under $195,000 - was my other listing - closed on Friday - $163,000 - needed complete remodel - this is a far better deal!  Shoot me an email or visit my webs... 07/22/2010

Hawaii MLS reports that June home sales, for Kailua Kona are up 60% over last June, and are the best since 2006. I know you hear it from me all the time (hopefully your not tired of it) but this is now the 16th month straight - that home sales have increased. I know I have talked about supply and demand will dictate pricing, but the  median home price was listed as down <3.23%> That's a far cry from the past few years of <20-30%>  decrease in median price. So if you're sitting there saying - I wonder when the bottom will hit? Your probably already missed it - when you start getting multiple offers again, and you look at the quality of home that sits out there for more than 90 days, you can see the difference. In fact I have personally experienced (and here it from multiple other agents)... 07/06/2010
