Happy New Year! It’s the Chinese New Year of the Dragon. I’m looking forward to this week and this year. At the end of this calendar year December 31, 2012 the The Federal Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act ends. This is important for homeowners who are interested in selling their home via a short sale. Once the act ends it will be interesting to see if there will be less short sales and more foreclosures.

Koloa, Kauai- condo sales statistics- Poipu condos for sale

Carol Skon, Kauai, Hawaii Real Estate: Real Estate Agent in Princeville, HI

So what do the Poipu condo sales statistics reveal? Could the trend be turning around for condo sales on the south shore of Kauai? The Koloa District condo sale statistics for 2011 showed improvement and topped 2010 with an increase in both the number of sales and the median sales price.

The least expensive condo sold in 2011 was offered for sale for $150,000 and sold for $115,000 at Kiahuna Planatation. Unit #304 sold in April and is a 1 bedroom/1 bath Leasehold condo. It originally came on the market in July of 2008 when it was listed for $240,000. Currently there are 42 condos offered for sale at Kiahuna Plantation priced form $129,000 to $1,795,000. My husband and I owned a Kiahuna condo in the 1990's and we love that property. It is really a special place.

At the high end of the condo sales statistics for 2011, there were fourteen (14) condos sold at Koloa Landing at Poipu Beach with sales prices ranging from $1,059,000 to $1,899,000. Koloa Landing at Poipu Beach is a newer development that offers 2,3,& 4 bedroom luxury condominiums. The project is about 30% complete. The property offers full resort amenities including porter service, 24 hour front desk check- in, housekeeping, a fitness center, sundries shop & grill, lobby lounge, and two cascading pools with spa & BBQ area. Wyndham Resorts is the on-site rental management company. If you want to visit the property, you can make a reservation at http://www.wyndham.com/hotels/. When you purchase your new Koloa Landing condominium, you can choose to have Wyndham Resorts manage and rent it for you.

The condo sales statistics show that only four (4) of the South Shore condos that sold were short sales. Eight (8) sales were bank forecosure (REO) sales.

Is it your time to purchase a Poipu condo?

First of all Mele Kalikimaka & Hau’oli Makahiki Hou (Merry Christmas & Happy New Year). This will probably be my last blog for 2011. I will post a new one on January 1st or 2nd 2012. I want to say Thank You to all my loyal clients and am looking forward to meeting new clients. The second half of 2011 did not slow down as much as I thought as judicial foreclosure REOs are trickling in. There will still be reasonably priced Kauai REOs for 2012. So don’t fret if you did not buy anything in 2011. There will still be deals in 2012. My guess is that the deals will dry up by mid 2013 but I will have to reassess this time next year. Thanks again for all your support in 2011 and thank you to those who let me know that you actually read my blog. Have a wonderful Holiday. Julie

Whale-watching at my open house

Richard T Dolbeare (RA), ABR, CRS, RSPS, BS/MS - Engineering Hawaii Dreams Today: Real Estate Agent in Koloa, HI

I'm sitting an open house today in a condo located just steps from the ocean. What a great place to watch for whales right from the lanai. This is peak whale-watching season and I should spot some soon.
