Princeville Kauai condo (and house) update from Feb 21st to 27th - 02/28/10 06:43 PM
Aloha,
The news this weekend was the tsunami warning we all woke up to Saturday morning. I've been here since 1991 and this one of the very few, rare times I've heard the civil defense sirens go off other than for the monthly test. After several hours of watching and waiting, it was determined by one of the scientists at the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center on Hilo that "we dodged a bullet." It was reported at that time that the distance between the trough of the wave and the crest was 6′, much less than expected. He cautioned that as waves … (0 comments)

Princeville Kauai condo (and house) update for Feb 14th to 20th - 02/20/10 11:25 PM
Aloha,
If you read last week's blog, you know I was hoping to provide a picture of Waimoku Falls which flows into the seven sacred pools more correctly known as Ohe'o Gulch in Hana on Maui. First of all, the last time I went to the "pools" you simply drove to the end of the paved road, got out of your car and there they were. That was obviously a long time ago, because the pools are now located within Haleakala National Park in the Kipahulu District, 11 miles from Hana. We rode past them on the bike (motorcycle) never realizing … (0 comments)

Princeville Kauai condo (and house) update for the week of Feb 7th to 13th - 02/14/10 01:59 PM
Aloha,
Happy Valentine's day. Looks like Brookfield is getting closer to finally having Nihilani sold out. I haven't checked lately but it seems there are only about 5 developer condos left. The developer is really dealing on these last few units so if you've ever thought about buying into Nihilani, now is the time. Take a look at this past week's update:

January 2010 Kauai Market Statistics - 02/12/10 01:58 PM
Aloha,
Jan 2010 certainly outperformed Jan 09 with 54 sales this past month compared to 20 in 09. Hopefully, this bodes well for the rest of 2010! Of January's sales; 31 were residential, 9 land sales, and 14 condos. The residential sales were across the board with 1 in the Waimea zone, 9 in Koloa, 7 Lihue, 8 Kawaihau zone and 6 in the Hanalei zone. In Jan 08 there were 50 sales, 69 in Jan 07, a whopping 121 in 06 and 105 in Jan 05. We've clearly got a long way to go before we get back to the … (0 comments)

Princeville Kauai condo (and house) update for the week of Jan 31st to Feb 6th - 02/08/10 08:27 PM
Aloha,
It was another glorious week here in Paradise, so much so that we even went for a motorcycle ride Saturday down to Lihue to take in a movie. It was equally beautiful Sunday so we went down to the beach in Kapaa (for a change of venue) and soaked up some sun.
January 2010 closed out the month well above January 2009 with 54 transactions compared to only 20 in ‘09. This is almost as much as December 2009 which ended up with 59 total. Let's hope February follows in January's footsteps. It won't be hard to outdo the number … (6 comments)
