It was intriguing to find that there was only 1 home for sale in Portlock and it was listed for $8,500,000, which sounds a little bit shocking. However, it shouldn't be too surprising as that market has been heating up in Portlock. There's been 2 sales over the past 6 months that are north of $8 million. There was a also a couple trades on the lower end in the $2-3 million range, but those ($8 million ones) were beautiful homes on the water.... Read More

What's exciting about that for the owners is the lease has been extended for another 65 years. They did not have to turn over the keys and walk away, which could have been the worse case scenario, when owning leasehold property in Hawaii. What's awesome about Sans Souci now is these owners have a chance to renew their lease for another 65 years. This creates some instant equity, versus not having anything left... Read More
