Buyers Market on Maui-Think Again




BUYERS MARKET ON MAUI- THINK AGAIN:

We have all been lulled into the "market is falling" and will continue to go down, shadow inventory, the bottom hasn't arrived thinking.
If you are looking for a condo under 200k in Kihei you may need to rethink that.

In today's search on MLS 0 yes I said 0 condos came up. Doesn't sound like rock bottom pricing and lots to choose from to me.

If you raise the bar to 250k you only get 7 properties. We have people with cash in hand searching on Maui right now for deals, so if you are a buyer you are competing for one of 7 condos. This means you can't underbid and chances are you will be in a competing bid situation.
Condos that have been on the market for months have been claimed now.
Be prepared to know the market prior to shopping for a home.

If you are thinking of buying a home and want to work with a professional team that will look out for your best interests, make the buying process fun/easy, and want to get you that best buy contact The Fine Island Properties Team at Keller Williams Realty Maui.

Maui still a bargain for Canadian buyers


Maui is still offering up bargain priced properties and this is a super time for Canadian buyers to take advantage of our warm weather and a condo at a great price too. When thinking bargains don't just think low low. Many resort areas that previously would sell 1.5 to 2million are offering up deals much lower. Lenders in US are still looking for 30% down to buy. (only downside).

Our favorite is Kai Malu in Wailea. This gorgeous gated community offers one of the most beautiful community complexes in Maui. Gated entry leads to luscious grounds with lava rock walls and waterfalls with ponds and lily pads. Across the small bridge the view opens up to an infinity edge pool overlooking the crystal blue pacific ocean and outer islands. Sit in the spa and watch the whales play. Complex also features BBQ, spa, steam and dry saunas and a super workout room with state of the art equipment.

Check out the MLS listings for this complex at http://www.fineislandproperties.com/ Search the MLS tab. If we can answer any questions regarding this community or others please just give us a call or email.
