Oprah Winfrey knows the value of wellness and healthy eating.  That is why she designated a portion of her Maui property to organic farming.   Here’s a chance for you to do the same.  The Hansen Ohana is proud to present Kupu Hou-Fresh New Life. This amazing property aptly named Kupu Hou is a rare combination of fabulous healthy living, luscious botanicals and opportunity. Kupu Hou received organic certification from HOFA (Hawaii Organic Farmers Association) in 2009-2010 and the owners have maintained those standards.  Kupu Hou Organic Farm has over 650 producing Maui Mokka coffee plantings!  The 7.9-acre property is located at approximately 1780 ft elevation with unobstructed bi-coastal ocean views! There is a lovely 2 story main home with cathedral ceilings that is completely off the grid with 7 Kw PV, solar hot water, gas generator back up ($75,000 complete system), detached ohana, yurt, children’s play area and more ~ all less than 5 years old! The owners have also begun the condominiumization process, which a new owner could pursue if so desired. Words cannot begin to describe the love and energy that has been put into this property. This is a true legacy property.  Although this video provides a sense of the beauty and serenity you will find at Kupu Hou, it is a must see property!  Contact the Hansen Ohana today if you or someone you know is searching for the one of a kind opportunity that awaits at Kupu Hou.

Aloha!  Spring has sprung and the first quarter of 2013 is complete.  We’ve had a very busy first quarter experiencing the real estate upsurge so widely discussed.    As a participant in the Sales end of the real estate market it is clear that there are increased showings, properties going under contract and sales including multiple offers on “well priced” listings.  Hesitant buyers are now becoming Purchasers as they learn of the “hot” markets on the Mainland and see how quickly our local Maui market is changing.  Traditionally Maui follows shortly after California and most of California has recovered.Maui’s well priced properties are attracting multiple offers with very few days on market, often resulting in quick closings. Inventories have declined 14-16% over the past 12 months in Residential and Condo classes. REO (Foreclosures) and Short Sales are dwindling, with any “hidden inventory” (or overhang) backlog slowly trickling onto the market. Mortgage Interest Rates are still near historic record lows which may help motivate would-be Buyers to go ahead and buy IF they can qualify for a loan.  Stringent lender underwriting has softened somewhat and many lenders are offering more new loan programs which also helps.  Although we are seeing increased financing as buyers take advantage of the current low interest rates, there continues to be more than 50% cash buyers.MAUI’S  FIRST QUARTER REAL ESTATE STATISICS ARE IN:
