The exchange rate is very favorable for Canadians to buy vacation homes on Maui now!  We are seeing a lot more of them actually buying condos that would have been unattainable a few years ago.

Don, I'm hearing murmurings of things dropping. We'll have to wait and see.

Georgina, If my wife and I were a few years younger, we'd be there looking. Love Hawaii.

Ted, your Prime Rate is better (for home buyers) - US is 3.25%. But on the other hand, US is better if you are an investor. There are always at least two ways to look at the same thing. Have a great night.
