It's a tight neighborhood. This was a quality product done by Gentry. This is the very end of Kuanoo Street in Ewa Beach, for those that aren't familiar. Some of the homes do back up to the golf course there in Ewa Beach. It's a hot product, however nobody at this point is looking to sell. But, if you know anyone that does own at Ewa Gentry Cypress Point, we are working with a buyer... Read More

  A thought to all home buyers:   Okay, so now the inventory of homes are at an all time low, and we’re looking at a 4 month inventory of homes ..possibly 3. And this is the time that you want to offer a lowball price on a property that you KNOW will have multiple offers.  WRONG!   The BELOW than “normal” interest rates to date have made history. THAT IS A FACT.  Lower prices and lower interest rates meant lower monthly mortgage payments.  Those that do not have all cash down have to rely on making ends meet with a monthly budget allotted for a mortgage payment. AGREED? AGREED!!   Okay, so now the inventory of homes are at an all time low, and we’re looking at a 4 month inventory of homes ..possibly 3. And this is the time that you want to offer a lowball price on a property that you KN...

Hoakalei is a new community built by Haseko in Ewa Beach. In this master-planned community, there were (and still are) lofty ambitions. There was originally going to be a man-made marina, similar to either Hawaii Kai or Ko Olina. However, last year, it was announced the water feature will now be a lagoon, similar to Magic Island in Honolulu, which could be used for recreational use.Water area at Hoakalei in Ewa Beach for future lagoonIn addition to the lagoon, thee is already an Ernie Els signature golf course at Hoakalei. New homes and condos were moving briskly during the peak of the market. However, when the market started to turn Haseko put on the brakes like so many other home builders in the nation. Now that demand is starting to catch up, there is little new construction availabl...

Plans for a marina have been replaced with a lagoon in Ewa Beach. The recreational lagoon in Ewa Beach is planned to be completed by 2015 and will feature many activities. Plans to convert its 54-acre Ocean Pointe/Hoakalei marina site between White Plains Beach and Oneula Beach Park into a recreational lagoon with no surface connection to the ocean. Tesha Malama, a 41-year Ewa Beach resident, said some boaters will be disappointed along with fishers who looked forward to slips and a public boat launch ramp that were planned along with the marina, but that the conversion to a lagoon is beneficial to the broader community. “Intention to provide extensive public access to its lagoon, promenade, cultural and archaeological sites and to integrate its shoreline reaches with a continuum of be...

The Ewa Beach, Oahu, Hawaii area grew and developers built many new construction homes starting from the early 1990's.  The communities in Ewa bloomed with the housing boom and there were several styles, communities and townhomes to be had during this time. During the last few years the Ewa Homes and Townhouse/Condo Market Prices went down considerably in this area and sales numbers were still booming to get a piece of that Ewa Beach area pie. Prices are now at an all time low and with interest rates now at an all time low as well it is surely a great time to buy your home in Ewa Paradise. Located on our Southwestern shore of Oahu, the Ewa Beach area has beaches (One'ula and Ewa Beach Park and now open Iriquois Point), surfing spots, parks, golf courses, recreation centers and shopping ...

Oahu's population grew from 876,156 to 953,207 residents according to the latest census.Ewa Beach's neighborhood of Ewa Gentry had the largest population boom on OahuAccording to a recent Star Advertiser article, Hawaii's population is up to 1.4 million. The neighbor islands had larger percentage increases with Kauai up 14.8%, Maui up 20.9%, and the Big Island up a whopping 24.5% since the last census of 2000.The Ewa Gentry area of Ewa Beach had the largest growth increase at 359.4%! This is a perfect example of why our prices in Hawaii are higher than the national average. There are more people coming than leaving. Supply vs. demand. Plain and simple...Contact me if you're looking to take advantage of lower prices before the next population boom.

I was going through the inventory in Ocean Pointe, Ewa Beach and came across a few Hot Buys that I thought I would share with all of you.  Their are 8 properties that really cought my eye, ranging from $379k for a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom (the only single family home under $400k in Ocean Pointe) home to $580k for a 4 bedroom 3 bathroom home.  These properties really cought my eye because they are either new to the market, or have been on the market but still available.  The interest rates are still at historic (50 year) lows which increases the buying power and allows buyers to "get more house for your money".  If you would like further information on these homes or any others please contact me today.

On a recent Friday, I loaded a new REO listing in MLS & by mid Saturday, we had 3 calls for showings! Since then, we've had multiple offers, several above asking price! REO or lender owned property can be a great source for purchasing a home. We at Hawaii Life represent lenders to help them sell their assets when they get them back from a foreclosure. In addition, we can help buyers looking for a great deal. Here's a gallery I've put together of some Oahu REO homes for sale. Stay tuned... we'll have more to come!
