Many of my best clients are investors looking to buy homes or condos for both fix and flip and/or long term hold. Either way, the process and formula for doing them successfully has not changed much over the years. Buy low, keep your improvement costs under a tight budget and make sure your sold comparables support at least a 30% return on investment....with less than a 6 month hold time! If anything, the advent of non-judicial foreclosures in Hawaii has created a huge backlog of pre-foreclosures, (whereby you get a chance to negotiate with the seller who is still in charge of the property) So the market is ripe with many months, if not years of back logged inventory just sitting there ready to be found, bought,

Let me tell you a story about this guy from Maine. But first, please know that I CAN help you find Maui Real Estate Deals like this! Like this one for example, because this home has TWO guest cottages, you can rent the main home, rent one cottage, live in the other, and it will pay for itself. Or just rent out the entire property and bank! The mortgage payment with principal, interest, insurance and taxes is $5250. The income from renting the main house is $4,000-4,500 and the cottages will rent for $1400-1800 each. So if you did not live on the property, you would profit $2K minimum per month. Even if you lived in one of the cottages, the property would still pay for itself. There are many such Maui and Haiku Homes for Sale on Acreage and across
Understanding the difference between leasehold property in Hawaii and fee simple meaning is actually very simple! (Scroll Down to See Video) With leasehold you DO NOT own the land the home or condo sits on. With fee simple you do!

#1 MANDATORY - Get professional photos, along with a 2-3 minute video and aerials. This is an absolute MUST. Don't you let an “el-cheapo” agent take pictures with their iPhone or a point and shoot camera. It will result in pictures that are dark and simply don't look good. (And yes, I see them show up every day on new listings!) Just look at how much commission they are charging and ask yourself "can they afford a few hundred bucks?" Also, DO NOT assume they are going to do it - just because you asked! Tell your newly hired star agent that you would like
