liberty homes: May 2007 Real Estate Sales Activity in the Kaneohe, Hawaii Area - 06/09/07 06:29 AM
The Kaneohe communities (zip code of 96744 and some connecting neighborhoods) have seen changes in the real estate market. 
Single Family homes sales have softened. Average sales prices of single family homes have seen some dropping; not so good news for sellers.  Buyers will find more selection with nearly 8 months worth of inventory; they will also find sellers that may be a little more negotiable.
Condo and townhouse sales are another story.  Inventory is relatively low and prices have continued to climb.  Sales volume is still remaining strong.  This may be a dynamic of buyers moving to condos and townhouses as … (0 comments)

liberty homes: Realtor in T-Shirt and Sneakers - 06/09/07 12:13 AM
My real estate training now includes diet and exercise.  To work the many hours and perform at the highest level, it requires being in good health. 
My day today began at the Mililani YMCA at 6:00am.  Stretching, lifting weights and a nice ride on the stationery bike got me ready to hit the day.  I am sure that some of you started your day in a similar manner.  Until recently the thought of getting up and sweating in the gym was a foreign idea to me.
Last summer I had hit a danger point.  Topping the scales at close to 400 lbs … (57 comments)

liberty homes: Credit Back From Sellers, is it a Panacea? - 05/22/07 08:18 AM
This is becoming a standard practice among many agents and buyers.  I have been seeing more and more of this practice.  Some think it is a panacea, is it really?
Let me describe what I am talking about.
The buyer offers more than asking price for the home and requests the seller give them a credit of up to $15,000 in credit. 
I have heard of much higher amounts from others in our business.  I have read here in the blogs that in some parts of the country their have been mortgage scams where they over inflate the sales price by a large … (27 comments)

I was handed a business card yesterday from someone I knew.  She said this is my new business with a big smile on her face.
