<strong><span style=”color:#0000ff;”>What is a vacation rentable condo on Maui, Hawaii?</span></strong> These are condominiums that allow short term (daily, weekly, monthly), or long term rentals. You, as an owner can either live in the condo, rent it out (like a hotel or to long term tenant), use it as your vacation home or a combination thereof. Perhaps you only spend 2 weeks here on Maui, you can then block those days for your own stay, then rent out the rest of the year for additional income. This allows much flexibility. Please note your property tax rate will change depending on how you use the property. You can read about Maui tax rates and their classification on my previous blog at: <a title=”Maui, Hawaii Real Property Tax Information” href=”http://livingonmauinow.com/2014/12/22/maui-hawaii-real-property-tax-information/” target=”_blank”>Maui Property Tax.</a>

<strong><span style=”color:#0000ff;”>What puts these condos listed in the Top Five? </span></strong><span style=”color:#000000;”>Properties have to be priced well for their category (meaning competing properties, what has sold, and the market data/trend). Properties also need to be in desirable locations, where the average and median price is in the upward momentum. Lastly but not limited to, properties need to be in decent condition (updates are good but need not be over the top as then the price might far exceed market value). Well, of course this is my opinion, but being in the Maui real estate industry as my full time career one starts to discern a good product pretty quickly. </span>

Located in Sunny South Kihei, Maui right across from Charley Young Beach (otherwise known as Kamaole One Beach). This is a one bedroom/ one bath condo located in building one. Building one is the closest to the beach, and most units face South Kihei Road which can be noisy. HOWEVER this unit (1-320) is off to the side (does Not face the street), quiet and actually has some ocean views!

Kitchen opens to living room with clean white appliances and granite counter tops. Washer and Dryer in unit. Bedroom window has been replaced with solid double pane window (originally was jalousie window). Bathroom was remodeled with vessel sink and wonderful shower. Tasteful island style furniture and designer decor. This unit has been rented out as a vacation rental with very high reviews from guests. Solid rental income history.

Can you find a beachfront condo for under $350,000? Yes, you can -at least for now at Kihei Kai! I sold Kihei Kai Unit 19 for $320,000 and Kihei Kai Unit 24 for full list price at $350,000 (multiple offers on this unit) in 2014. So sellers got excited and decided to list Unit 5 for $350,000 and Unit 4 for $400,000. <strong>So this makes Kihei Kai Unit 16 priced right at $330,000.</strong> This unit is on the top floor (partial corner unit-there is actually another unit to the right but since this unit juts out, it feels more like a corner unit). Large lanai (over 100 SF) has a partial ocean view. This is located on the north end of Kihei along miles of sandy beach called Sugar Beach. This beach is un-crowded on most day. Due to its length (over 3 miles) you can almost always find a quiet spot.  Boutique complex (only 24 units total). Reminds you of a quaint beach cottage. It has the Hawaiiana charm. Feels like home away from home due to its very low density. Parking available. Listed by Jeannie Kong R(S) and Heleena Oliveria R (S) Maui Real Estate Advisors, LLC
