maui condos for sale: Hawaiian Volcano is active!
- 07/06/08 09:52 AM
There she blows Hawaiian Volcano!
On the Big Island the Hawaiian Volcano is spewing lava. Hawaii's Kilauea Volcano is on the move. The Hawaiian volcano Observatory reported it is flowing from Nov 12th from a new outbreak. The Halemaumau vent near Kileauea's Summit is spreading ash and levels of sulfur Dioxide. The Volcano gas is called Vog and is a problem for people with Respiratory problems. Lucky for Maui the Vog is headed south west. With the trade winds it is carried in another direction. I guess you could say that real estate is expanding on the Big Island.

maui condos for sale: Day Off For the 4th of July on Maui
- 07/05/08 09:16 AM
I was so stoked to have the day off work on the 4th. It seems like we are working harder to make less with the current market. I have talk to a lot of agents that are dead in the water. We have had slow markets before so this is nothing new. We just need to be on top of our game more. I also have found that I need to let things go that are out of our control and just God more.
So I have the day off and I went to Kahana with my wife and went windsurfing. … (0 comments)

Ten things to consider doing for a better quality of life.
A good friend of mine is going through cancer treatment. He is in stage four of Pancreas cancer. The thing that amazes me about my friend is his love of life and extremely positive attitude. So he emailed me a top ten list that I wanted to share to encourage others as it has encouraged me. You can come up with your own list but here is Rene's list.
1. Walk 30 minutes everyday and walk with a smile.
2. When you wake up each day ask yourself what … (6 comments)

maui condos for sale: Gardening for life.
- 06/27/08 11:03 AM
Okay gardening for life is kind of a weird title. What it entails is summer is here and my orange and avo orchard needs moisture for healthy growth and new fruit. You can learn a lot from gardening like once in a while you need to prune your trees. In life or business you need to cut back and get rid of the dead branches so that there is new growth. Not to different than in life. The business climate has really changed so we have to prune back the usual way we do business. Cut back on over priced properties and … (4 comments)

California Visit!
I just took a week off to go to my Daughters graduation at FIDM design school in downtown L.A. The weather was over 100 degrees which is really nice if you are in a pool or at the beach. Lucky for me I had a chance to surf some over head waves in the North San Diego area. You have to love California when the weather is nice and blue skies and the ocean has that deep blue hue to it. What was really nice were the pods of dolphins that were abundant in the surf. You get … (2 comments)

maui condos for sale: Higher interest rates and the market!
- 06/16/08 06:43 PM
How will current interest rates affect the real estate market? It looks like the Feds are going to raise the 30 year loan to 6.38%. They were saying that it most likely will not becoming down any time soon. So the window for low interest rates looks like they are over. The reason the Federal Reserve Chairman gave for the increase rate is to cut off inflation. So how will this affect an already slow real estate market? To compensate for higher rates I believe we will see a lowering of house values if real estate is going to sell.

MAUI REAL ESTATE MARKET WILL SURVIVE!!!!
What is happening in the Maui real estate market? I do believe we are different from a lot of the mainland market problems. Maui has always been a destination for people looking for sun and great beaches. The upper end of the market will not slow down but will survive. Higher airline tickets will not make a difference to the wealthy. They will be purchasing new homes and condos. With those purchases they will be doing a lot of remodel work. Tearing out the old lime stone floors and installing new wood or granite … (4 comments)

It's an international market place!
The world has changed a lot in the last twenty years. We are now a global market place where we are deeply related to other countries and markets. We have become dependent upon outside manufactures for goods and services. There are new merging markets such as China and India with new wealth. We are competing for natural resources and oil. So how does this affect me as a real estate agent in Maui? It really depends where you live maybe New York City or Las Vegas'. It could be resort areas in Florida … (4 comments)

Planes, Trains and Automobiles!
PADDLE POWER
So the news on travel is not sounding too good. We are looking at the airlines cutting flights by 20% to the islands to save fuel and to get rid of gas guzzler planes. This is going to impact the tourist industry and it will ripple down through out the state. I have seen better fares flying to Paris than to the islands.

Today oil prices made a major leap to record highs. Just when they were saying it was going to level out and maybe drop down. So all of a sudden … (11 comments)
