Maui Caravan Review, best buys Sept. 24, 2008

By
Real Estate Agent with Aloha Group Maui

The sweet real estate deals on Maui include pocket listings at Honua Kai and short sales at aina nalu and other Maui condominiums. 

But first, the best of Wednesday's Caravan.

A "starter" home at 5 Iris Place, MLS 333326, in Kahana just north of Lahaina.  Only in Maui can a $850,000 be considered a starter.  It is 4 bedrooms and 2 baths in a nice residential community.

The ocean view, almost oceanfront, Kapalua Bay Villas condo, MLS 328962, we saw looks like a good long term investment. Kapalua resort is pushing its owners to upgrade to their new "Gold" standard.  The last unit to sell that met the Gold standard sold for $1,300,000.  This unit is listed for $1,049,000 and has a good rental history.  I like Kapalua for a 4 to 5 year investment.

The deal of the week is at Honua Kai.  This is a one bedroom, mountain view unit.  The listing agent says the original developer price was $765,000.  A desperate owner wants out and is will to take $715,000.  Honua Kai is destined to be a great property with great appreciation potential.  This is not in the MLS so email Lee@AlohaPotts.com for information.

The smarter we work, the luckier you get.

Thanks, Sindee:  We have a large client base in the Sacramento area.  It would be great if others could see properties here in Maui.
