Beach Villa's at Ko Olina, Three Bedroom Condo Availability at the June 2009 Price Reduction Sales Event.

By
Real Estate Agent with Beach Villa Resort

I walked the entire property with a client today who is shopping for a three bedroom villa.

A good question to ask is what might be available by the time it's your turn to pick if you sent in your deposit today. With 100+ reservation deposits in for an available 123 units, the pickings get slimmer as each day passes.

After the touring around, I conclude that the best selection is going to be right at the $1,200,000.00 price point. At this level, you will be purchasing villas that were going for around $2,200,000.00 and these villas have some of the best views at the property. At this price point, you may be able to score a 14th - 16th floor penthouse level villa in the Ocean Tower with amazing 180 degree views of the three lagoons. At this same price point, you might also be able to purchase a three bedroom villa in the Beach Tower facing towards the swimming pool with a beach view when looking towards the right.

Give me a call to setup a tour of the property or to discuss strategy on which villa may be the correct fit for your situation. Tomorrow, it's alternating between the sauna and steam room on this rainy day with a dip in the pool and ocean if the sun peaks out.

Aloha, Alfred--

If you are thinking about purchasing at the Final Sales Event at the Beach Villas, please allow me to represent you as your buyers agent on selection day. There is no cost to you and your purchase price is exactly the same. However, the villa you select and how much you pay for it will make a big difference in your profitability; both from an appreciation standpoint and if renting, covering expenses by "getting heads in beds"

Alfred,

Thank you for all the information you have provided with respect to the resort and the sales event.  With your knowledge, you have helped me make an informed decision as to whether it makes sense for me to buy a unit as a vacation home.  You definitely love what you do and it shows in your service to your clients.  You went above and beyond my expectations in providing me with critical data and analysis which I highly doubt another Realtor would or could provide given your first-hand experience with investing at the resort.

Bill, you are right, I ended up purchasing here also! The crazy thing is that because of the economy, the developer is going to blow out the remaining units at a two day sales event. Good for clients, not so good for the developer. The quality of the property is outstanding, it's just they built at the wrong time. Of course, things could get worse but if they are selling things at what the developer has said is below what it cost them to construct the project, that would seem to be a good proposition for buyers.

John,

Thank you for your kind words. I have a passion for this project and believe it is under appreciated. The quality and price point before their announced price reduction was in my opinion, a good value when compared to other projects on the outer islands. Now it's just the cherry on top. I purchased on faith without any hard data, now a year later with good information available, I like to help clients make an informed and educated decision.

Aloha!
