honolulu county condos homes: Detailed Real Property Research a MUST! - 09/03/09 04:20 PM
No matter where you go there has been some kind of decline in the housing market. Honolulu County is not an exception and it is imperative that both sellers and buyers have a seasoned agent who knows how to run comparable properties before listing a property for sale or submitting a contract for a buyer. Example 1: Listing for a single family home is not easy when you're listing a home built in the 50's and just an average kind of property.

honolulu county condos homes: Coastal Windows- Waipio Gentry Business Park - 07/11/08 04:48 PM
When we bought our little one bedroom townhouse in March of 2005 at the Royal Palm @ Waipio Gentry the first thing we did was submit a request to the Board Members of our Association. You see, Condo/Townhouse Associations have rules and if it's one thing you do need approval for is a structural revision to your unit amongst many other things. So make sure you read your house rules and association documents regarding remodeling and so forth. We were adamant that we wanted to get new and improved secure windows and a new sliding door for our ground floor unit. We … (11 comments)

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)
My belief is that ALL housing markets differ and the circumstances are going to depend on the housing markets in each of the states & local cities; and right down to each neighborhood which will show a significant difference in number of sales and of course the sales prices too. I also believe that it is up to everyone in the Real Estate Industry to keep the market moving. With our professional attitudes shining through in all communication and contact with our clients and peers and being thorough in our process through each and every transaction are just a few points to … (16 comments)
Blue ocean and skies So inviting that's true But leap off the rock? --A Haiku by Sally
During the winter months at Waimea Bay on the North Shore of Oahu, there can be winter surf swells up to 30 feet and during the summer it is most likely to be calm and serene (as in the picture above) and great for swimming, scuba diving and snorkeling while looking at all the diversity in these waters! The "Big Rock" at Waimea Bay has a bunch of people on the top of it who … (35 comments)

honolulu county condos homes: Hawaii Home Buyer | Hawaii Home Seller | Hawaii Homes Market - 07/11/07 12:14 AM
When the Great Big Giant Real Estate Boom Balloon hit Hawaii it hit HARD! Sellers were overpricing their homes for sale and they were selling like crazy! Buyers were overbidding and there was a bidding war like you wouldn't believe! And prices kept skyrocketing and buyers kept buying and sellers kept selling! And then.....there came a point when buyers could not afford the payments for a $600,000 home with 20% down! And...interest rates went up a little as well. To give you an example of our market from 2003 to 2006 compared to our current market of 2007 the following statistics will show you what it … (33 comments)
