How we helped Coreen sell her home with our sound advice
"I sold my home at more than we started at! I had put a lot of money into a unit and then decided that I needed more space. I asked Tish to look at it, and even though it wasn't the best time for selling in our area, he was confident we could move it. Tish had a plan, but I wanted to give this couple a chance to purchase my home. Unfortunately, they couldn't get qualified, although if they had followed Tish’s advice, they probably could have. His advice is very sound. He tells you exactly where you should be. I don’t think I've ever had a Realtor who was as well prepared as he was. I was extremely pleased."
What You Don't Know About VA Loans Might Surprise You!
Have you ever heard of a VA loan before? If not, you may be in for a pleasant surprise.
Back in the day, when I was serving in the military, a VA loan could only be used once. Today, however, that has changed. Every two years, active and past members of the military can apply for a loan with nothing down. The only requirement is that you live in the house for two years - after that, you can apply for another loan and do what you want.

This program provides a great investment opportunity here in Hawaii. If you're interested in obtaining a VA loan, or want to discuss your options, don't hesitate to give me a call or shoot me an email.

Aloha! Today we're going to be discussing the real estate market here in Hawaii and how it's faring.
The market here started out hot in 2015, and there is definitely a good amount of inventory, but you'll still find that we're in a balanced market that's leaning towards a seller's market.
The average increase in home prices has remained steady at 1% per month, and this has been occurring for almost seven years. The average condo price right now is $370,000 and the average home price is $650,000.
In my own estimation, I believe that now is a great time to buy - but there's never really a bad time to buy. Historically low interest rates and very low down payment requirements with products like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can boost your buying power phenomenally.
If you want to buy, you're going to need a good agent like myself, so please be sure to contact me. I would be very happy to assist you!
