Mahalo to All of the Sayles Team Clients & Partners
Once again, the Sayles Team would like to thank all of our clients, business partners, and our distinguished fellow realtors for all that we have been able to achieve in 2017!
This past week, Dano Sayles, our principal broker and owner represented the entire Sayles team as he received his award for being the #2 real estate agent on Maui! Dano flew over to Honolulu to attend Hawaii Business Magazine’s Top 100 Gala event where the list is complied of Hawaii’s top 100 agents by sales volume.

We firmly believe it is our team approach to real estate that has allowed us to accomplish all that we have over the last 5 years. Consisting of a 7 man team, it gives us the flexibility and creativity to cover for one another, problem solve together, and service our clients with the utmost professionalism.
Our philosophy in real estate is 100% about putting our clients needs first and we go to great lengths in ensuring that. Whether it’s at least 1 person on the team being available 24/7 365 days a year or personally checking on a vacation rental property for our client, we firmly believe in servicing our clients the best way possible.

If it weren’t for our loyal clients who consistently refer us to their friends/family or those who continually choose to use us as they build their real estate portfolio, we wouldn’t be the successful team that we are. In an effort to show our appreciation, we invite all to check out our Sold Property Portfolio detailing the 90+ multimillion dollar properties we have represented!
We are also grateful to our clients of 2017 who have allowed us to build off of our 2016 success. A few years ago we implemented our latest sales tool, The Private Collection by the Sayles Team. It has been instrumental in facilitating the sale of Ho’olei Villa 81-6 and Hoolei Villa 52-1, two luxury Wailea condos that were not publicly offered for sale.
Top 3 Condo Sales by the Sayles Team
Desirable Ocean Views From Your Lanai: Ho’olei Villa 52-2
We first listed this property in the beginning of June 2017 which was close to the peak of the Ho’olei market. The top row units are valued so highly for their elevated and panoramic view corridors.
When it was first listed on the market, Ho’olei Villa 52-2 was easily the best unit for sale in complex with it being the only Maile floor plan available. The Ho’olei Villa 52-2 was originally sold in 2008 as an original developer offering, so this is the first time it will be transferred to a 2nd owner.
Sold as the highest priced unit 2017 for $3,160,000
4th Row Beauty Sold by the Sayles Team: Ho’olei 99-5
We are proud to secure our buyer clients a fabulous 4th row unit at Ho’olei! From the highest elevation in the complex, there aren’t many views that can compare. Initially listed in mid August of this year, the unit was a desirable commodity because the unit was never rented and the sellers hardly utilized it to its full potential.
We are extremely happy to have negotiated a great deal for our clients. The unit closed for a final sale price of $3.16 million, more than $200k off the original asking price!
2nd Floor Steal at the Montage Kapalua 5202
With our specialization in resort properties, we are so excited to have converted one of our clients to picking up a Kapalua property! The Montage Kapalua in general is the premier condo complex on the West Side because the Montage brand guarantees buyers a certain level of luxury that comes with elite perks and unprecedented access.
After undergoing two price reductions, the new price point peaked the interest of our clients and excited them enough to write an offer. After some back and forth, we are proud to say we were able to close for over $350k under original asking at $3,125,000. .
Top 3 Residential Sales by the Sayles
1 Acre of Wailea Highlands Sold by the Sayles Team: 4305 Melianani Place
4305 Melianani Place is in the prestigious neighborhood of Wailea Highlands and presented itself as a rare opportunity for our clients to pick up a world class property at a cut price. The property is extremely special because of the 1 acre it sits on and the elevated location that allows the home to take advantage of sweeping view just beyond the infinity pool.
The property was initially brought to market in the 8 figure range at the end of March. We are happy to say, we closed for a final sale price in the $8 million range which is more than $4 million off original asking.
Sold by the Sayles Team: 2 Acre Haiku Property
Originally brought to market in the middle of March 2017, it was listed in the mid $900k range where the buyers stood firm on their list price. The property is 2 acres of pure Haiku bliss with a main home that is 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a little over 1500 sqft; there is also a separate detached cottage on the property that is also 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and just under 1000 sqft.
The home was built in the last decade and has been meticulously cared for as evident by the pictures. The sellers eye for detail and finishes makes the home a superior buy for our clients. The sellers are the orignal owners, so our clients are the 2nd family to occupy the home and make it their own. The sellers shrewd negotiators and would not part with the property unless their full asking price was met, we closed for $948,500 after a 6 week escrow.
Launiupoko Possibilities: Makila Plantation Lot #8
Technically not a residential property, but a piece of land that can turn into an amazing estate in the future is lot 8 on Haniu Street in Launiupoko. The property is all about maximizing ocean views and will no doubt be the greatest of the property.
The lot is in the prestigious community of Makila Plantation and is the perfect custom home site to build an epic estate! Located directly above the popular and soothing Launiupoko Beach Park, lot #8 is primed to take advantage of sweeping ocean views and is a blank slate ready for the perfect Launiupoko lifestyle.
Sold for $1,750,000
