Honolulu Real Estate | Kapahulu Home with Ocean Views SOLD: $706,500 FS

Home Shoppe Hawaii is pleased to have recently helped our Buyers purchase a Honolulu Home at 3518 McCorriston Street in the Kapahulu neighborhood of Diamond Head.  This was a private sale of an unlisted Honolulu property that Home Shoppe Hawaii arranged on behalf of our clients. Because this Kapahulu home was not listed, Home Shoppe Hawaii managed both sides of the transaction, though we represented only the Buyers on the transaction. Having no listing agent resulted in significant savings to my Buyers in their purchase.  It also enabled my Buyers to purchase this home without having outside competition. Due to the low inventory we are experiencing on Oahu, most single family properties in the Diamond Head area of Honolulu receive multiple offers.

This Kapahulu home, in the Diamond Head region of Honolulu, was built in the 1930s and had some of the traditional details of homes of this period. Unfortunately, there had been a lot of deferred maintenance and the home was in average to fair condition. The location is great, however, just a short walk to Monsarrat Ave and Kapiolani Park, as well as Waikiki Beach. The second story of this home featured ocean and Diamond Head views, which was exactly what my clients desired.

Purchasing homes in a Sellers’ market requires unique strategies to help Buyers find the home of their dreams. Home Shoppe Hawaii thinks outside of the box to help secure the home you want and frequently has access to unlisted homes. Contact Home Shoppe Hawaii at 808-721-8088 to hear how we can help you find a great Honolulu home.

Kailua Real Estate | Keolu Hills Remodeled Home SOLD $805K FS

Keolu Hills is a great neighborhood in Kailua, near Enchanted Lake. Homes in the area range from plantation-style cottages to executive homes with sweeping views of the ocean and/or Enchanted Lake.

Home Shoppe Hawaii recently helped find and closed on a Keolu Hills Kailua home for some of our delightful VA buyers. This prime piece of Keolu Hills Kailua real estate was a 4/3 home, with 3/2 in the main part of the house and 1/1 as a mother-in-law suite, that could be used for guests or even as a rental. This charming Kailua home for sale was fully remodeled and move-in ready. The kitchen had stainless steel applicances and granite countertops. The entire home had new flooring and all bathrooms were new. All remodels and additions were permitted. The spacious master suite featured two sinks and a shower-tub combo.  The back yard had mature fruit trees and new grass with sprinklers and the home was freshing painted.

Great homes at this price point, particularly those than meet VA Loan requirements, can be hard to find in Kailua. My clients were able to secure this one by acting quickly when the Kailua home fell out of escrow with another buyer. Buying a home in Kailua often requires dilligence and unique buying and offering strategies, given the low inventory and high demand for Kailua real estate that we are currently experiencing.

Please contact me at 808-721-8088 if you would like to hear my unique strategies for helping buyers find a Kailua home.

Kailua Real Estate | Lanikai Beach Home Sold $1,650,000 FS

Right now, all great beach homes in Lanikai or elsewhere are in high demand. It used to be easier to find a home relatively near the beach for under $1.5M. Now it is rare to find anything within a block of the beach for under $1.8, unless it is on the other side (Mauka) of Kalaheo Avenue.  

My clients were overjoyed when we found this great Lanikai beach house listed at $1.5M. Because there was a lot of interest and multiple offers, the property sold for $1.65 in just the first few days on the market. Some of the things that make this home near Lanikai Beach awesome are its huge, over 14,000 sq ft, lot; the two giant monekypod trees that shade and beautify the yard, and the awesome gourmet kitchen.

This Kailua beach cottage was originally built in 1928, but has undergone several additions and even includes a separate cottage. With 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, and over 2300 sq ft, exclusive of the cottage, there is plenty of room to spread out.

If you are looking in Lanikai for the perfect home, or anywhere in the beachfront Kailua neighborhood, please contact Home Shoppe Hawaii. We’d be happy to help!
