Real Estate
No video this week but I got some updated numbers for you. As of Thursday, July 6th, we have a total of 993 active and pending properties. Breaking down that number, we have a total of 601 active properties currently on the market with 392 pending. So the numbers are down since we last looked at them. Again, my tickers all seem to be going in the right direction and the summer buying season is strong.
The Ka’anapali Ali’i is getting lots of action as I predicted in my blog last year. I am currently working on an update. Be on the lookout for that.
Anything Else This Weekend or Next?
I am always looking to promote other weekend activities for Maui organizations. If we are missing anything, drop me a line any time for future happenings. Mahalo!!!
As always, have fun and stay safe! Hope to see you out there this weekend.
