Market Update

Will the rise in interest rates take the wind out of the booming real estate market? Well, it appears as if the answer is no unless the interest rates should rise back to the mid to high 7's which most pundits think is highly unlikely given the sluggishness of the economy and the fact that 2004 is an election year.

What is happening is a slowing down in the torrid pace of refinancing. For more in depth coverage of how and why interest rate fluctuations might affect the real estate market, please read this article provided courtesy of Jacob Hoag with City Bank.

In this week's Newsletter, we are featuring a new listing in Kula (see above) that is the best value in this price range...a truly wonderful custom home that is only 3 years young! Please check it out. Also, we have a new listing at Kihei Bay Vista listed under vacation rental condos for only $$195,000 and a home with ohana in North Kihei for $414,000 that will almost certainly sell quickly.

There are lots of other great properties featured this week, so take advantage of these deals before interest rates and prices go even higher.
