Halama St. in Kihei Maui - an oceanfront neighborhood
If you want an oceanfront home in Kihei Maui, the options are somewhat limited, because much of the coastal real estate is taken up by condominium resorts, and beach parks.  South Kihei Road is the main artery along the coastline, and there's a few streets that extend beyond this and offer some neighborhoods with single family homes.  Uluniu Rd. is one, and Halama St. is another.  Let's see what's happening on Halama St....
Halama Street - runs between Kalama Park to the south, and up to W. Kapu Rd. to the north.

condo: What is a Non-Warrantable Condo? And why you should care….. - 08/20/18 07:33 PM
 This article is copied from an email newsletter by Alan Van Zee of Hawaii Mortgage Company.  If you're looking for a lender in Hawaii, send them an email or call.
What is a Non-Warrantable Condo? And why you should care…..
This designation is important to anyone who is interested in buying, selling, or refinancing a condo.  In short, almost half of the people out there should pay notice.  If a condo project is determined to be non-warrantable, it could lead to difficulties in obtaining financing.
 
Let me first tackle where the term non-warrantable comes from.  When a lender sells a loan to institutions such … (7 comments)

condo: Can I sell my Maui vacation condo in 15 days? - 08/20/18 01:19 AM
"I want to sell my Maui condo in 15 days - do you want to list it?"
That's what the seller said when he contacted me 14 days ago.  This is a condo that was just bought earlier this year, in a great oceanfront location in Kihei Maui - Luana Kai Resort.  It should be easy to sell fast, right? 
In this case yes it could be sold fast...  a prime Maui beachfront unit in a beautiful location. Solid short-term rental bookings with good rental income. Motivated seller.  Let's do it!
 
OK, what's it going to take to get this condo sold?

To rent or buy, that is the question:  This Maui condo example explains it clearly.
I am sharing this information provided by Alan Van Zee of Hawaii Mortgage Company Inc.  It really shows how a person is much better off buying if they can afford it.  Here on Maui, single family house prices are high, but there are other options, such as a condo.  The nice thing about the condo market is that most of them are in the resort areas which are close to the beaches and shopping centers.  And, we have a lot of condos to choose from on … (0 comments)

A quick condo sale in Kihei Maui makes my weekend!
I'm not usually one to brag about my sales, but this was a really quick one by Maui standards.  With only 2 opportunities to show the unit, due to heavy bookings, it was amazing it went under contract so quickly and sold in just 65 days.  It could have been quicker but there were some delays due to buyer and seller being on the mainland and both were doing 1031 exchanges.
