poipu: Kauai Absorption Rate For March 2012
- 03/16/12 09:49 AM
The inventory picture continues to improve on Kauai. At one time all areas of the island had a supply of homes well into the undesirable "red" zones, now there are many that are approaching a balanced market. The Central/Lihue market continues to be the best performing. Big improvements are still needed in the Poipu and Kapaa area resort condos. Aloha!

poipu: Kauai Real Estate Continues to Move Toward a More Balanced Market
- 01/14/12 04:20 AM
Kauai Absorption Rates Show A More Balanced Market Kauai absorption rates continue to move toward a more balanced market. The Lihue area leads the way with a supply of homes and condo well below 12 months. The South Shore, once a very troubled area, has also seen a dramatic recovery and now has the least supply of all of Kauai's resort areas (Princeville, Kapaa, Poipu). The horizontal color bands in the chart indicate market health from a seller's perspective (red is ugly). Foir more information, see the color code definitions to the right of the chart.

poipu: Kukuiula Back on Track on Kauai's South Shore
- 05/27/09 02:39 PM
It was announced today that the Kukui'ula developers will invest $165M to complete the facilities and recreational amenities that had previously been on hold. Co-developers A&B Properties and DMB Associates are reported to have renegotiated their agreement leading to this infusion of capital.

poipu: Poipu Beach Hotel Reopens after 17 years
- 04/13/09 06:43 PM
Poipu Beach Hotel is coming back online as the new Koa Kea Hotel & Resort Hurricane Iniki wiped out Kauai's South Shore hotels (and most of the rest) in 1992. Most have been rebuilt but two have remained closed. The two are the Poipu Beach Hotel and the Coco Palms remembered by many from Elvis' Blue Hawaii film. The Coco Palms is still an eyesore after developers gave up on renovations after running into issues with permitting. But finally the Poipu Beach Hotel is reopening tomorrow. It's been renovated and has a new name, the Koa Kea Hotel & Resort. For

poipu: Kauai Real Estate Inventory May Be Stabilizing
- 01/06/09 05:49 AM
Overall Kauai real estate inventory continues to trend downward which could be a sign of good things to come in 2009. While it's still a bit early to declare this a trend, it is nevertheless encouraging after enduring a relentless climb that began 2 1/2 years ago. Unfortunately our resort area of Poipu is not yet improving as mainland buyers continue to stay away. Poipu has a large inventory of vacation condos which will only begin to sell once our mainland buyers return. Long term, Poipu's future would seem to be bright as it's within a Vacation Destination Area and thus

poipu: Kauai South Shore Condo Median Sales Prices Off Modestly From 2006 Peak
- 10/04/08 01:39 PM
The decline in median sales prices for Kauai's South Shore condominiums has flattened based on several high-end sales in recent months. What previously looked like a 25% decline from the peak reached in 2006 is now more like a 7.5% decline. What a difference a few months of sales data can make! This data reflects what has sold and is not necessarily indicative of change in value of an individual unit. The chart contains data through the end of the 3rd quarter of 2008. Data has been extracted from Hawaii Information Systems reports compiled from data submitted to them

Since my office is in the Koloa/Poipu area, I track condo sales there very closely. The 2 charts below show a 12-month history and a 24-month history.

The bold lines are trend lines and the dashed lines represent the underlying data. Data shows the number of sales has continued to decline while median sales prices are relatively flat. Data represents what is selling and not necessarily the value of an individual property. Aloha, Visit www.KauaiRocks.com for

poipu: Kauai's Hottest Real Estate Areas
- 06/02/08 07:04 AM
What are the "hot" home sales areas on Kauai? Kauai residential home sales inventory is over twice what it was just 2 years ago. But the island has 5 very distinct regions and inventory varies greatly among them. Where are the "hot" areas (relatively speaking)? Well it's Kauai's busy South Shore area (Poipu, Koloa, Kalaheo, etc) and the central Lihue area. In those two areas, the residential absorption is just over a 1 year supply. This compares with 2 and 3 year supplies elsewhere on Kauai. Please refer to the July 17, 2006 Business Week article on their view of healthy
