Please note on these listings, the first number is the list price with the sale price following. It's easy to see that the median was at $325K while the average is $368K. Either way you cut it, pricing it down and it's the lower end that is selling. Here is your update for the week just past:

I keep saying it, but I'll say it again - there's plenty of good buys out there. Not all of them are picture perfect and many need remodeling but if the price is right, it just might be worth your effort to go through all the time, effort and expense. At this time, there are 60 Princeville condos on the market priced under $600K. As for Princeville houses, there are 21 homes starting at $459,900 up to $799K.

Please keep in mind that prices, listing status, and other numbers quoted are accurate and correct as of this date only (8-15-10) Properties are constantly changing status and price so call or email if you have any questions. That's why I'm here.

Aloha Elaine


The feral cats here at the Cliffs used the drainage pipes to travel about the complex. Here they are peeking out to see what's what.....
