Kula Maui Hawaii Real Estate Newsletter     -         May 2009

The May Kula Caravan had a wide variety of homes and land for sale upcountry.  I thought the price of land in Kula was going down, until these listings came along.  If you're looking for land, there's plenty of low priced building lots with good views.

PROPERTY TAXES - The Maui County Council on Wednesday approved keeping
property tax rates at existing levels for the next year
.  Even though tax
rates will stay the same, property tax collections, the county's largest
source of revenue, are expected to drop by double-digits in the coming year.
That's because property values are continuing to decline due to the weak
housing market, and slowing construction is adding fewer new homes to the
tax rolls.

Congratulations to your county council for holding the line on taxes.  Too bad the state hasn't shown the same discipline.
