Kauai's Poipu Real Estate May Be Ready to Turn the Corner

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

Earlier today I posted my real estate inventory chart for the entire island of Kauai. Although that chart showed Kauai's real estate inventory has been decreasing for over a year, Poipu on Kauai's South Shore has lagged behind. Finally there are signs of improvement here as well. Admittedly it was hard to get the yellow curve fit to bend at the upper right so it's still a bit early to say inventory here has peaked. Nevertheless, it's a positive sign especially when considering the overall improvement in Kauai.

Poipu on the island of Kauai is a major resort destination yet has had limited shopping for tourists and residents. That is in the process of changing with the phased opening of Kukui'ula village. Kukui'ula Village is the shopping component of a huge 1,000 plus acre Kukui'ula development adjoining Poipu on the Western side. On Friday, a handful of stores opened for business in the 87,000 plus square foot shopping village and the total is planned to increase to around 50 by the end of the year or soon thereafter. Our local newspaper reports that stores opening Friday included Bubba Burgers, Bungalow 9, and 3 art galleries including that of local artist James Hoyle.

She's got her steer at Kauai's annual rodeo

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

Today is the kickoff for a week-long celebration of Koloa Plantation Days. This year's theme is "From Sugar to Statehood". This year is extra special as it's the 50th anniversary of Hawaii statehood.

Some fun events for today include the historic Hapa Trail walk, steer roping at CJM stables, and evening entertainment by Willie Kahaiali‘i at the Sheraton Kauai. The best is coming a week from today with the annual Koloa Days Parade and a full rodeo at CJM stables. On Kauai, much of our entertainment is free and these events are no exception.

Here's a photo of one of the past rodeo's where this rider got her steer!

Kukuiula Back on Track on Kauai's South Shore

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

It was announced today that the Kukui'ula developers will invest $165M to complete the facilities and recreational amenities that had previously been on hold. Co-developers A&B Properties and DMB Associates are reported to have renegotiated their agreement leading to this infusion of capital. This thousand acre planned residential community is located on Kauai's South Shore just West of the Poipu resort area. This development combined with the Kukui'ula Village retail center will be a huge upgrade for the area. The retail center itself is slated to open for business this Summer.
