Maui Real Estate Watch

No question the Covid-19 / Corona Virus Hawaii lockdown has created some softening in the market - translation? 

Better deals for buyers!

Although last week DID see another $63M in sales transactions from 86 closings. Likely those deals went under contract prior to the shutdown. I don' think we've seen the full impact on closings yet. The largest closings were 0 Haneoo Rd in Hana for $2.8M and 320 South Ulukoa at $2.75M.

 

We also had 21 price reductions over 3% for an average of 9% and a total dollar volume of $5.3M for the past week. Please see the Google Sheets spreadsheet below or link here for all of the detail.

Hawaii Fix and Flip - An Endless Market

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,…
