Princeville condo (and house) update for the week of July 19th to 25th

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Sold on Kauai Realty RB-18142

Aloha,

Per the Friday Garden Island newspaper "Heavy summer rains led to flash flood warnings Thursday, soaking anything outdoors and twice closing the Hanalei Bridge. The bridge, first closed at 10:45 a.m., was reportedly reopened at 2:45 p.m., but was later closed again. Furthermore, a road crew with the state Department of Transportation was forced to clear a mudslide on Kuhio Highway in the Kalihiwai area, closing one lane of traffic, said a press release from county spokesperson, Mary Daubert. At 12:46 p.m., rain gauges and radar showed heavy rain falling at 4 inches per hour over windward Kaua‘i and was nearly stationary, according to the National Weather Service in Honolulu."

Wouldn't you know, an agent had a showing scheduled at one of my listings in Wainiha on Friday but had to cancel. Sometime Mother Nature intervenes and simply takes over. Despite the heavy rains, we ended the week filled with sunshine along with some properties closing and going into escrow. Here is your update for last week

One property went into escrow, Paniolo 211, which last sold for $125K as a leasehold in 12/99 and was converted to fee simple in 2/03 for $45K. This unit was listed at $324,500. Another Paniolo, unit 103 which was a Fannie Mae foreclosure, listed at $209,900 closed this week at $184,900. This unit sold for $410K in 4/05 and was taken over by the bank in 1/09. Sealodge J1, priced at $615K, with a purchase price of $325K in 9/02 went from in escrow to under contract. We should see this unit closing within the next week or two.

Villas of Kamali'i 12, which sold for $750K in 6/05 expired while listed for $875K after 477 days on the market. This unit came on the market on 3/08 at $900K and expired in 3/09 at the same price. It came back on the market at $875K and stayed at that price until it expired this time.

The fractional shares of Villas of Kamali'i 20, which sold for $845K in 6/08 were withdrawn from the market as was Mauna Kai 26, which was a short sale at $299K. This unit last sold for $525K in 10/06 and offered quite a bit of square footage for the price. Maybe we'll see this one going into foreclosure next. Mauna Kai F6, also a short sale at $340K, with a purchase price of $431,650 in 11/04 may be facing a similar fate since it too was withdrawn. Sandpiper 217, listed at $399,900 and purchased for $310K in 2/04 also came off the market. Nihilani 16A, which sold from the developer in 5/06 for $603,600 was withdrawn listed at $575K. Pu'u Po'a 405 listed at $1.5M was withdrawn after 301 market days. This unit last sold for $430K in 1/00. It's easy to see why it was withdrawn, given the list prices of the other Pu'u Po'a units:

Hanalei Bay Resort 8 was temporarily withdrawn while listed at $875K for the whole unit or $465K for a 6 month fractional share. This unit last sold for $730K in 6/05.

Our price changes start off with Ka'iulani 67 which last sold for $895K in 1/08 and reduced from $1.049M to $994,500. Several of the fractional units reduced the first of which is Plantation 621 which went from $165K to $150K. Villas of Kamali'i 42 reduced from $250K to $185K and from $265K to $199K while Plantation 921 went from $200K to $190K. Keep in mind these are all 2 month fractional shares.

Sandpiper 111, which sold for $215K in 2/03 is a short sale which reduced from $299K to $275K. Hale Moi 115, with a purchase price of $444,500 in 12/4, is a short sale which reduced from $425K to $325K. Quite a reduction, which bring it's more in line with the other Hale Moi listings. Hale Moi 208 which last sold $215K in 11/01, reduced from $425K to $399K. Take a look at how these two units stack up with the other listings:

Nihilani 17B, a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath Hoku unit which last sold on 7/06 for $637,113 reduced a small amount from $519K to $515K as did Pali Ke Kua 105, which went from $749K to $745K. This unit last sold on 8/07 for $795K. On to your Princeville home update:

The new listing on Kina'u Place for $695K looks like it has a lot to offer at that price. The location is superb but the home was built in 1979 and has some water damage to the kitchen. But still, it's worth a look!

Have a great week and don't forget to call or email to get the facts.

Aloha Elaine
