  If you're looking to adopt a rescue dog please have a look at K9 Kokua's list of dogs seeking a home. Your consideration and aloha is greatly appreciated and needed. K9 Kokua started in 2003 as the only group in Hawai'i specializing in providing direct outreach to the dogs of the houseless population and those affected by domestic violence. The volunteer crew mission services multiple islands and responds to Urgent calls from police and private sector personnel regarding unique situations of need.   K9 Kokua is not a rescue-focused group. Their main mission is to provide direct outreach to houseless dogs and those affected by domestic violence. The dogs in their foster care were either houseless or affected by cruelty in some way and have come from serious backgrounds of varying circu...

Aloha, Lance Owens (RS) here with LUVA Real Estate bringing you our monthly sales report. Talk about some crazy numbers, let's start with......"Absorption Rate": The term absorption rate refers to a metric used in the real estate market to evaluate the rate at which available homes are sold in a specific market during a given time period. It is calculated by dividing the number of homes sold in the allotted time period by the total number of available homesWith that said, it is generally understood that anything under 15% is a buyers market, anything above 20% is a sellers market. Lets roll back a few years, and we are going to skip 2020. Back in 2018 our absorption rate was 14%, so it slightly favored buyers, FF to 2019 and it hovered around 20%, so it was slightly leaning towards bein...

The ongoing trend of consistent home sales has continued to April 2021. The Realtors Association of Maui (RAM) notes that there’s a high buyer demand for prime real estate with no signs of easing up on rising market trends. West Maui has a high interest for anyone who’s looking to buy a piece of property in Hawaii.West Maui was once known as a retreat for Hawaiian royalty and is now a prime destination for every tourist, earning its place as an immediate favorite because of the richness in its history and the abundance of restaurants, shopping areas, tourist activities, and resorts. Real estate prices differ in the different parts of Maui depending on how commercially developed it is. Because the demand is going nowhere but up, it’s helpful to be aware of the current trends for West Mau...
