Mauna Lani Fairways:
With two closed sales in December in Mauna Lani Fairways, 2015 closed out on a positive note. Overall sales were down significantly compared to the year previous. 2015 saw 7 sales compared to 13 in 2014. 2016 is also off to a good start with one property under contract and a healthy amount of inventory. Along with the two closed sales, December also brought 3 new listings. All 3 new are the smaller of the two bedroom floor plans. Units #501 ($638,000) and #806 ($569,900) are located along the golf course and #1606 ($609,000) backs up to the green space and pool area.
Mauna Lani:
2015 brought the highest median sales price to the resort since 2007. Throughout the year, I touched on the fact that the total number of closed unit sales had lagged behind the 2014. There is a lack of rock bottom priced “distressed” properties that had been seen in previous years and a softening of the Canadian dollar. In addition, there was a number of new construction condos and homes put under contract in 2015 that will not be included in sales numbers until they are officially closed in 2016 or 2017. Starting 2016, Mauna Lani Resort had 27 properties in contingent or under contract status.
