For Sale Kihei Kai Nani

Our very special short sale at Kihei Kai Nani needed its very own blog for many reasons.

Location: Just across from Kamaole II Beach and next door to restaurants and shops this quaint and cozy complex has a "10" location for vacationers or folks just wanting to live the Maui Life Style.

One building up from the pool area is convenient but not noisy and this condo overlooks a park like bbq area.

Remodeled: Most all buyers we meet want a great deal on price, but want the property to be remodeled too.

This condo has had a very nice remodel, incl kitchen, tiled flooring in and on the lanai and a stunning bath remodel including custom tiling.

Price: At $220k this short sale is at an affordable price. This condo is currently in the vacation rental program. I've participated in over 40 short sales and can give you timely and good advice regarding this type of transaction.

Kihei is a great place for a second home and you will love the convenience and quality that Kihei Kai Nani offers. Contact us at Fineislandproperties@gmail.com for further information or to search the Maui MLS for this and other condos go to http://www.fineislandproperties.com/

Maui June Real Estate Statistics out are Mixed

Maui June Real Estate Statistics are out and the menu is mixed.
Many of these sales are still a result of the first home buyer tax credit which had to close by June 30th.
So volume of sale was up as expected, but prices are flat to decreasing.

Residential units rose to 43% but w/average sales price up 2% and median down by 7%.
Condo units rose to 64% volume sold, but had a harder time with the pricing with average sales down 11% and median down 32%.

That is painting our picture here on Maui at this time. If it is below median and priced right it is selling, but the higher price and lets wait and see isn't working. Our current absorption rate for residential and condos is over 13 months making it still very much a buyers market.

The biggest surprise to investor and buyers at a lower price point is that you are competing and homes/condos that are great values like most REO properties have multiple offers at or above full price within a day or two so having an agent who is hardworking for you and stays on top of the inventory is a great asset.

We look forward to assisting you.
