Market Update
With interest rates hovering around 5% with zero points, is it any wonder why sales have been improving month after month.
This week's featured property was once the home of Princess Kapiolani, so it truly is fit for royalty. Of course, you don't need royal blood, just a couple of million dollars, and this spectacular estate could be yours.
Are you planning a trip to Maui sometime soon? If so, we'd love to hear from you so we can prepare to help you find what you are looking for.
Have a wonderful week.
Mahalo Nui Loa,
The Smith Team
P.S. Many of you have shied away from Short Sales in the past, and rightly so. Things are improving for this asset class, so don't be afraid to make offers. You might be pleasantly surprised.
