Kealakekua, HI Real Estate News

When I asked my friends if they would like to see Mamma Mia! at the Aloha Theatre, they, unlike my husband, were enthusiastic. One of my friends' roommate is in the production, so they thought we could get free tickets. I don't know why they believed that idea but I was oppossed to the idea of waiting for free tickets. Why? You can get a ticket to the show at the Aloha Theatre for $10. (They surely do not charge enough.) Even near-the-stage seats are only $28 each.So, I did the responsible thing, went online and bought the darn tickets. The best I could get was the 4th row center, but that's still excellent seats.  I knew better than to listen to them. Those particular friends rarely buy tickets for anything. Unlike me who is often obsessed with the process. Because with just a little p... 03/04/2019

For a few years now, I have looked for an agent on Big Island to show me homes. I am getting to the point this year where it makes sense to buy a second home there, given the amount of time I spend on Big Island. Of course, I would love to just retire in Hawaii but my husband is not so convinced that this is the best place in America to live like I am. So a second home is probably a good compromise.Hella Rothwell has been a great help in helping to narrow the possibilities of homes that would fit my parameters and quirks and, yesterday, I finally got to meet her. She is every bit as wonderful and fun as she seems, and very knowledgeable about Big Island real estate. You can read more and see all the photos in my personal blog today at this link: Touring Homes in Big Island With Hella Ro... 12/09/2015

I am going to let you in on a new listing, we cannot put it on the MLS until the tenants move out. Once listed at $1,400,000 (im sorry but it was never worth anywhere near that - But still thought it was worth mentioning). This property was purchased in 2005 for $750,000, then had major renovations done to it, the bad news is they stole or sold most of the appliances, fixtures, and cabinets out of it before they left. And as in most REO properties, the grounds have become overgrown, the good news is that the coffee is still there and healthy, you just need to get in there and clear the land by hand. A little over 5 acres above Kealakekua Ranch Center. This is an excellent area for growing Kona Coffee. This is Priced at an investor level - cash deal - $475,000        05/07/2011

Living up Mauka, what beautiful place.As you head out of Kona and start your drive home to Kealakekua, the first thing you notice is the drop in temperature, it can easily drop 5-10 degrees, and more at night time. Even though I never actually lived in Kealakekua, I lived next door in Captain Cook. I remember when my wife was pregnant, she would drive up there to get out of the Kona heat, along with the drop in temperature comes lush foliage, what you expect from Hawaii. I remember the drive through Kealakekua was always an adventure - it seems like every month had a different fruit ripening - it seems like one month you would be dodging Avocados on the road, the next month it was Mango's, the next month it was Guava, the next month Lilikoi, nest month was Lychee's, and of course the wo... 07/16/2007
