homes for sale: Kona HI Home Prices Up 6.7% VS National Sales Up 6.1% [INFOGRAPHIC] - 03/31/17 07:59 AM
February 2017 Housing Statistics show North Kona up 6.77% YTD, and 10% over last  February,  surpassing mainland numbers.
Aloha, Lance Owens (RS) here with LUVA Real Estate,  and I have to be honest, the FHFA numbers state "1st Quarter" and we still have several days of reporting left?  (typically sales take 2-4 days to get reported or I would have used 1st Quarter results also). 
You be the judge, here are the black and white numbers below. 
 
 
 
 
 
SOME HIGHLIGHTS: The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) recently released their latest Quarterly Home Price Index report. In the report, home prices are compared both regionally and by state. Based on the latest numbers, if … (0 comments)

homes for sale: Just Sold ! Kailua Kona Hawaii - 12/02/11 07:37 AM
Kailua Kona, Hawaii. Today is a good day, we just closed on a tremendous home, listed at $843,500.00 , sold for $824,500.00 with only being on the market for 19 days. Its a good feeling when you feel like you hit this one right on the head, or that noise a baseball bat makes when you hit the perfect pitch - better yet, the sound a golf club makes when you hit that sweet spot. Speaking of that, maybe I deserve the afternoon off 
I wanted to say thank you to my clients that believed in me, my family that put … (1 comments)

Real Estate Recovery in Hawaii 
Lance Owens, Kailua Kona, HI Realtor, gives a run down on the Hawaii Real Estate Market

Although the month is not officially over yet, Home sales do not take place on weekends, so we can safely report these numbers (Note: MLS rules state you can take as long as 5 days to report a sale – so the numbers may go up slightly)
Let’s take a look at the July 2011 sales report, Number of Homes Sold: UP by 43% over the same 31 days last year.
Year To Date (YTD): I prefer … (9 comments)

homes for sale: Hawaii - our best known secret is out - voted #1 in the World for an Island to move too, or live on. - 07/18/10 11:41 AM
If you live here, you've known it all along, but now the rest of the world knows our little secret - the Big Island of Hawaii has just been ranked number #1 in the world by "Islands" magazine - August 2010 issue. They cited things like, all the nice little quaint towns and villages around the big island, then they cited the bigger cities, they talked about the warm weather, then they talked about the cool weather. Hawaii island truly is its own little world, unlike any other islands in the chain. With the tallest mountain in the world being right … (2 comments)

homes for sale: Another White Christmas in Hawaii - REALLY - Surfing, Sun, and Snow - 12/26/08 08:12 AM
I just don't know why people don't believe we have snow in Hawaii, but we awoke to Mauna Kea covered in snow on Christmas morning. We usually try to get up there as soon as the snow hits, but not on Christmas Day. The roads were closed anyway due to icy conditions. Actually that was the excuse I used not to have to get cold yesterday :) I prefer to stay in my warm 80 degree climate down here at sea level, my house sits at about 120 foot elevation, and Mauna Kea sits at 13,796 foot elevation - talk about … (12 comments)

homes for sale: KONA - Fishing at its finest - 973 lb Blue Marlin pulled in Tuesday - HIBT Tournament - 07/30/08 08:33 AM
973 pounds !!! This is the second largest fish caught in the 49 year old tournament, amazingly it was the same team, back in 1986 that reeled in the largest - 1,062.5 pounds - what are the odds?
Kona is world famous for its fishing - mostly because of its Deep Blue waters, Aloha Spirit, Warm tropical weather, and the ability to pull in a fish of this size - 5 minutes out of the harbor. The waters drop off so fast here in Kona, you can be a few hundred yards off shore and be thousands of feet deep - … (2 comments)

homes for sale: June 2008 MLS market reports are in - Number of Sales - Kona Real Estate - 07/15/08 04:28 AM
Island wide sales slowed 35% from June last year, with Kona showing a little more than 38% drop in sales.
Sitting down and talking with other agents, and gathering my information - I think a big part of this drop, is the closing of 2 major airlines serving the Big Island - Aloha & ATA. That made a huge impact that I think we are really just now feeling - why just now, when the airlines closed months ago. I believe that the people that were only a month or two out from their vacation - bit the bullet and paid the extra … (0 comments)

homes for sale: Kailua Kona Real Estate - 15 homes sold MTD - 10 for over $700,000 - 05/23/08 06:16 AM
Just crunching some of the numbers and thought I would pass them on. So far in May we have 15 homes reported as sold, that puts us on track for 20 . Last year for May we finished off with 33, so we are off by almost 33%. But what I found interesting was the fact that we now have affordable homes in Hawaii - there are 8 homes for under $400,000. and of the 15 sales - 10 of them were for over $700,000 - 5 of those 10 - were for over $1,000,000 . It just proves that point … (0 comments)
