By: David Kucic, RACRS, GRI, e-PROAccredited Buyers Representative (ABR)First Sergeant, USA (Ret)Tropic Lightning Real Estate, Oahu, Hawaii It doesn't take rocket science to figure this one out.

What will my home be worth in 2 years? Are we at the bottom of the market yet? It will also assist you in making your decision to "wait until we get to the bottom and the prices go lower". We have a large inventory

David Kucic, RACRS, GRI, ABR, e-PRO, AHWDFirst Sergeant, USA (Ret)Tropic Lightning Real Estate, Oahu, Hawaii The number of short sales on Oahu, Hawaii are growing each day and in some cases are a fantastic opportunity for someone interested in purchasing a piece of Hawaii real estate below market value. David Kucic's very brief description of a "short sale"....... "When the balance of the mortgage(s) owed on the house are greater than what the fair market value of what the home is currently worth".

kucic: Tropic Lightning Real Estate: What a Name! - 03/07/08 12:36 AM
By: David Kucic, RACRS, GRI, ABR, e-PRO, AHWDFirst Sergeant, USA (Ret)Tropic Lightning Real Estate, Oahu, Hawaii There are small, medium and large real estate companies in Hawaii. Some have major corporate names, some are named after individuals and some have other sorts of names. I am sure there is good reason why companies choose their names. The company that I selected to be associated with is Tropic Lightning Real Estate. Our military family knows all to well that the 25th Infantry Division from Schofield Barracks, Hawaii is nicknamed "The Tropic Lightning Division" and that is the first clue of WHO WE ARE!
