A Beautiful Place To Live! But The Traffic!

The local blog “Aloha Update” has an excellent post on the traffic one faces when commuting from the windward side.

“Monday through Friday, before sunrise, beginning at 6:00 am is when bumper to bumper traffic starts in Kahalu’u around Ahuimanu Road and Ahuimanu Place going towards Kaneohe.  In the morning, it can take me about 15 minutes from Ahuimanu Road. to Haiku Road, which is only approximately 3 miles.  Without traffic this route should only take about 3 minutes. This morning traffic lasts until about 9:00 am.  For the after work flow going the opposite direction from Haiku Road to Kahalu’u, this traffic-jam begins at about 3:00 pm and can last up until 7:00 pm!”

If you have followed my blog for an extended period of time, you know that I have ranted over and over about the impact of traffic on real estate.  Aloha Update’s post confirms the impact of traffic on quality of life and therefore real estate values.

Honolulu Home For A Book Worm!

I’ve seen them on T.V., you know, those “Ellery Queen” book shelves with ladders that go to the ceiling.  A few weeks ago, I was previewing properties in one of Honolulu’s more prestigious neighborhoods Kahala.  I found this home in the gated community of Nohona Kahala.  It is listed at $995,000, 3 bedrooms with 2.5 bathrooms and a total interior area of 2,297 square feet.  The book case below is what caught my eye!  I am an avid reader and it was fun to ponder a person reading all of the books.  Alas, the home is under contract, but if you would like a fact sheet on it, just click here.

Master Plan for Honolulu’s Kakaako Approved!

With the recent approval of their master plan, General Growth Properties has taken another step toward revitalizing Honolulu’s Kakaako area.  The Honolulu Star Bulletin reported the following.

“The application, submitted by General Growth Properties affiliate Victoria Ward Ltd., seeks to transform the 60 acres it owns at Ward into an urban village with more than 4,000 more residences in the form of mid- to high-rises.”

What is does this mean to the long term health of Honolulu’s real estate market?  I believe it is all good!  Currently, Kakaako has been an area that has no continuity, an auto mechanic’s operation can be doors away from a store or a restaurant.  When it rains, many parts of the area have deep pools of standing water and it can be treacherous area in which to drive.  It has needed a change of direction for many years.

As the area is revitalized, you will see higher quality structures and more homogeneity in uses.  This means it will tie in better with the surrounding neighborhoods and should lead to higher real estate values for everyone (good if you own, bad if you are a renter).  Given Kakaako’s proximity to down town Honolulu, the legislature, City Hall, Ala Moana Shopping Center and Ala Moana Park, this may be a great time to buy for long term appreciation.

Feel free to call me at 808-737-2093 or toll free at 877-737-2093 to discuss taking advantage of this area’s opportunities.

Vintage Honolulu Home

Malama Place in Manoa has some of the best examples of vintage homes on the island.  It is a street with no outlet and there are many homes that are worth seeing.  Today’s picture is of one of them.  The home was on the market in 2001, for $695,000, and it was offered in very original condition.  It sold in 14 days at a price of $700,000. I have not seen the interior, but based on the exterior appearance I will bet the home has had a major renovation.
