The Luxury Division at Compass recently published its report for 2022. This annual Ultra-Luxury Report highlights properties selling for $10M+. Whether you’re actively searching for your dream home or just want to enjoy dreaming, it’s worth browsing through the report. (If nothing else, you can take a peek at some truly stunning properties.)
When people think of their dream tropical vacation, Hawaii is typically at the top of the wish list. But what’s paradise if you’re surrounded by Instagram-snapping, loud-talking, space-invading tourists?
Yes, you should absolutely go to downtown Kailua-Kona and have a Mai Tai overlooking the ocean, but once you’re tired of all the people, head to one of these lesser known attractions to beat the crowds and spend some quality time with the Big Island.
Hawaii is a unique place; that’s why everyone dreams of living here! But when you’re looking for real estate on the Big Island, some of the terms can be a bit confusing. As you browse through the lists of available homes, you’re bound to come across the term “Lanai.” A lanai is one of the most popular architectural features in homes throughout the islands.
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected seemingly every aspect of our lives. Now, “going out” means sitting in your back yard, and “heading to the movies” means browsing Netflix from your couch. But after you’ve finished with all your home projects (or have gotten sick of your house entirely), you might be feeling like it’s time to start working toward your dream of moving to Hawaii. But is that even still a possibility? Of course it is!
If you’re in the market for luxury real estate in Hawaii, chances are it’s not your first home-buying rodeo. But, unlike purchasing property on the mainland, it might be the first time that you couldn’t easily make it out to your soon-to-be house for home inspections, contract negotiations or meeting with your agent or broker. While it’s not much different than buying a home in the continental United States, there are still a few steps that might be challenging for first time sight unseen buyers.
