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.
With COVID on the downhill (we all hope…), Hawaii is starting to open its doors ever so slowly. As of June 15th, 2021, interisland travel restrictions will be completely lifted! Residents and visitors alike may travel between the Islands as much as they like without a vaccine or negative COVID test!
In the era of social distancing and hand sanitizer, waltzing through someone else’s house, touching all their things isn’t really cool anymore. If you’re in the market for a new home, you have to find some other way to tour it. Luckily, modern technology means we don’t have to leave the house for anything anymore, even home tours!
Ready to buy a house COIVD-style? Here’s how to make the most of virtual home tours.
With most places still under strict travel restrictions—including the Big Island—many people are wondering if this is still a good time to buy property. On one hand, interest rates are at an all-time low. On the other, nobody seems to be buying houses right now. So, even if you lock in an incredible interest rate, is it a safe investment, and can you even still buy property during the COVID-19 pandemic?
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!
