Buying activity is continuous, but not yet racing.

It is still a "buyer's market", with buyers looking for "deals".

This is occurring at all price levels, whether properties are selling for a few hundred thousand dollars or multi-millions of dollars.

There are exceptions. We've had buyers realize the value of a property, and understand that even though it's not "a steal", they can obtain  something they desire at an excellent price.

The "Asian market promise" is nearing reality. Elected officials from Hawaii have been travelling to Soth Korea and China, and Visas and air-flights are being opened up. This should trigger the next boom!

Aloha,

Dick, Jeff, and Anne-Marie

We wish you all a Healthy and Happy New Year!

With the start of "high season", there has been the "hoped-for" rise in activity!

Showings and offers have jumped in number, and contracts are being made.

There is a strong Canadian dollar, and many Canadians have returned to Maui to enjoy the weather.

When you factor in the lower prices in Maui property, and the strong Canadian dollar, the motivation to buy is now high.

Of course, over the mid to long term, prices will rise.

Short term trends are difficult, and deciding when to buy or sell a property depends on one's personal agenda.
