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.
After almost two years of ridiculously low mortgage rates, is the real estate industry in for a change as we roll into 2022? That’s the question on everyone’s mind. Will it be more of the same, or will interest rates climb their way back up? According to experts, it looks like interest rates will start to increase in 2022—and sooner rather than later!
The Holiday Season isn’t historically the best for real estate. That’s usually when you see the biggest dip in sales. However, this year has been an especially strong market for sellers, and all signs are pointing to a record-breaking 2021 Holiday Season! Fasten your seatbelts and get ready for a winter home-sale surge like we’ve never seen before!
The holiday season is the busiest time of year. Days are filled with entertaining guests, family parties, and shopping for gifts. For many, the thought of buying a house during the holidays seems like a cumbersome task to add to the already long to-do list. But, before you shy away from holiday house hunting, here are a few reasons why it might be the perfect time to purchase a home.
Homes can be on the market for a few days, and the next day, you might see a price reduction. Many buyers assume there might be something wrong with the house, but that’s not necessarily the case. When a house on the market drops in price, the industry term “priced reduced” is used on the listing. Here’s what it really means when a home’s price is reduced.
If you’re on the fence about buying property at the end of 2021, you might be surprised to learn that it’s not such a bad idea. 2021 was an incredible year for the housing industry, as far as sellers are concerned. Homes sold at record speeds and prices, while interest rates dipped to some of the lowest numbers in history. As things start to slow down, it’s natural to wonder “what’s next?”
