hawaii relocation: Preapproval Letter One Week and Credit Denial the Next...The Aftermath - 05/25/11 06:32 PM
In this era of Real Estate transactions you can pretty much guaranty that if you aren't sparkling with great credit, very little debt and a nice income you most likely will not get a home loan. 
It's nice that "they" have laid down the law and made it clear that there are no funky home loans to be had....
But we can get a preapproval letter from the buyer one week ........and the next week we are notified of the cancellation.
The buyer was served with a credit denial letter?
 Yup, let's just call it borderline qualification to begin with, right? … (19 comments)

The potential home buyer has not gotten their military orders, their  job transfer papers or are just not sure if this is the right time to retire.  The potential home seller is going to sell their home but not quite ready because they need to do a few repairs and they're still deciding what to do and where to move.
All of them have one thing in common. They are wanting to Buy a Hawaii Home or Sell a Hawaii Home.....but they are not quite ready.

Mililani Town was voted the All America City in 1986 and it is the only community in Hawaii to ever receive this distinction.
My parents bought their new home in Mililani in 1971 and I was just starting high school. To this day my mom still lives in the same house and my son and daughter grew up in that same house too. From Kindergarten to High School the Mililani Community and Schools served us well. My children just came back home within the past two years and help my mom (who just turned 80 in January of this year) … (19 comments)

hawaii relocation: Hawaii Home Buyers and Answers to Your Questions - 06/29/08 06:28 AM



A Realtor® has eyes and ears open. Listening to a clients needs (or even wants) IS the most important part of my business. For instance, let's take the First Time Hawaii Home Buyer. As an example I'll use the First Time Hawaii Home Buyer who just Relocated to Hawaii and has no clue what the Hawaii Housing Market is like. It's a stressful and sometimes really scarey process for them and it is imperative that I keep a level head so I can be there for them and walk them through the whole process and relieve some of that … (42 comments)

hawaii relocation: It's the Quality of Relationships That THIS Professional is Worth - 06/26/08 04:55 AM

The most rewarding feeling is a repeat client who comes back for not twice ...but three times. This is the story:
This is one of the few most faithful, loyal and valued clients I've had. Why? Because my business is based on the quality of relationships I have with my clients. I'm not a dead door mat and I don't have a bunch of "lines".
Just straightforward talk ...no bones about it. This is what it is and this is what you have to look forward to. This gentleman and his wife bought, sold and now bought again through me.

ALOHA! Welcome to Our World..... A PARADISE awaits you!
Seems like everyone wants to visit Honolulu, Hawaii at one point in their life. Why? Ahhhhh...the tropical breezes in balmy weather looking up at sunny blue skies in a land of paradise. Typically, the imagery in a ones mind who has not ever stepped foot on our fine grains of sand splattered on beaches lining the edges of our islands is one of a continuous 'ancient era'.

Kaiser Permanente Medical Centers and Clinics are located in Honolulu, Moanalua and most recently in Waipio Gentry.
About a month ago our family transferred over to the Kaiser Plan and we picked the Waipio Clinic to be our home of record as it is just blocks from home.

The doctor went through all my history within the first hour of that first meeting.  All tests, referrals and specialist appointments … (9 comments)

hawaii relocation: Waikele Real Estate | Waikele Housing Market (Video & Pictures) - 06/10/08 06:22 AM
It's kind of hard to get a clear video while driving along (and driving) in a neighborhood....unless someone else is driving. Then again, you get a side view of the neighborhood if someone else is driving and you're the passenger. Maybe I just need to get a car with a sun roof so I can stand up and take a video. Then again, I think that's illegal.
Click It Or Ticket!  The Honolulu Police Department commercials scream....stressing that everyone needs to be buckled in the car for their safety or else you get a hefty ticket.
