Market Update
2009 is almost in the history books. It certainly has been a challenging year for many people, and especially those in real estate.
Fortunately, we were able to buck the trend again, and had another outstanding year with closed sales over $19 Million.
Although we are understandably proud of our accomplishments this year; we take even greater satisfaction in knowing that we helped many folks get some terrific deals as well as helping others sell their properties in challenging times.
We are looking forward to an even better year in 2010. If you are thinking of buying or selling, please let us know how we can best assist you in that process.
We want to wish everyone a very Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous New Year.
Have a wonderful week!
Mahalo Nui Loa,
The Smith Team
P.S. At times we hear about owners who are extremely motivated even though the price may not seem to reflect it. Such is the case with two oceanfront homes at Maluhia #5 and Makena Place #1. Don't be shy about making an offer on either of these properties.
