Brian Clay Decathlete From Hawaii Not California

2008-08-23T04:02:32Z

Thats Right! Brian Clay is a local boy. On the podium this evening for the Olympic gold medal in the decatlon, Brian Clay was described as being from California but in fact Clay was a gradusate of our own Castle High School in Kaneohe. Not only did he win the gold medal, he also set a record in the discus. The conditions were tough but he was so far ahead that for the final event he only needed to finish the race. Lets hope our great state gets credit for this phenomenal athlete. You know how proud Hawaiians are.

Waimanalo View From Lanikai Pillbox hike

2008-08-22T06:24:10Z

When was the last time you had a chance to get a little sweat going with a decent workout and experience one of the most beautiful view plains on the entire island of Oahu? The Pillbox hike in Laniakai is easily accessible from Kaelepulu Street. The contrast of the verdant pine trees against the Aqua blue coastline of Lanikai and Waimanalo is a canvas only God could have painted. Makapuu Point and Rabbit Island are visible in the far distance. Take time off this weekend and go check this gorgeous hike out.

Kalama Beach Club In Kailua

2008-08-22T05:53:51Z

Did you know that you can rent out the Kalama Beach Club even if you are not a member? This beach front club located at 280 North Kalaheo Avenue has ample parking and is a full 3 acres. They even have the capability to cook your food in their imu. The website seems to have several links that are non functioning and the rates published are from 2005. This Beach Club membership initially was doled out to homeowners in the Kalama Tract subdivision however many owners have not kept up their dues. The subdivision was initially developed from Land inherited by Queen Kalama. The subdivision was the first in Kailua and was initiated in 1925 and named in honor of the Queen.

Kailua Activity Seems To Be Picking Up

2008-08-21T04:31:05Z

I spoke with several Realtors over the weekend who have noticed that activity has really picked up in the last week. It seems that many of the Buyers out there don't have Realtors and an agent who is a close friend picked up a Buyer this past weekend and is already out showing them property. Since I heard from these Realtors saying that they had noticed a lot of Buyers out this past weekend we have had nine showings on my Kailua listing at Papalani street in the past 2 days. I have been trying to figure out why this sudden surge of activity would occurr and I was wondering if school starting back up had an effect on the activity in the neighborhood. This listing is in a hot price range and I feel certain we will be getting an offer soon. Hawaii continues to have unit volume issues (Down approximately 26%) but seems to continue to hold pretty steady in Median Price Range. I hope this continues to be the case. There does not seem to be much quality inventory out there.

Trump Tower International Hotel Waikiki slated for August 2009 Closings

2008-07-28T21:15:43Z

Aloha from Hawaii Evryone,

The Trump Tower International Hotel and Residences are now slated for an August 2009 bulk closing date. It was confirmed today that this project is actually slightly ahead of schedule for completion and it looks like barring any complications that residents will be able to move in shortlt after the August close. My experience is that most developments lag behind this by a month or two but the Donald always bucks trends and seems to be able to wrap things up faster than other developers.

Trump Tower Hawaii in Primo location

2008-07-23T04:54:35Z

OK so we have talked about the fact that there may Still be units available at the Trump Tower Waikiki. If you call me I may be able to help you find the unit you are looking for. I keep in close contact with the phenomenal S&P sales team and correspond weekly to determine if there may be any new release of inventory. Keep in mind that these units are not on the market and can only be found through the special relationship that I have built with the developers sales team. Also keep in mind that there are people out there that will promise they can achieve this and can not. If you place an order for a Trump Tower unit, I will find it!

What you might not know is that there are innumerable reasons to want to be in this area. First, the beach is about 100-200 yards from your front door making it one of the few full ownership condominiums in Waikiki that are this close to that golden sand.

Waikiki is also enjoying a Renaissance at the moment. Architects have melted the 1950's style Hawaii into a modern architectural style that culminates in billions of dollars of renovations called Waikiki Beachwalk. The food here is fantastic. Try the Yardhouse for starters where the GM occasionally comps the incredible food for me and you can wash it down with a variety of 130 beers from around the planet. After a full day of sun make sure to stop here to ease the sun burn.

Call me at 808-228-8434 if you would like additional information on how to get your own Trump Tower Waikiki.

Kaneohe Sandbar is a magical Place

2008-07-21T07:56:13Z

Just minutes from Heeia Kea Boat Harbor in Kaneohe there is the magical Sandbar where beautiful yachts, colorful kayaks and the odd Stand Up Sufboard comingle. The weather here is incredible most of the year and the water is as warm as a bathtub. Gorgeous Sunsets and rainbows can be seen while floating in this Aqua paradise. I highly recommend a trip out the next time you get a chance!
