Booming With Possibilities: Kihei Villages 1-101
Kihei Villages 1-101 first came to market in early January of this year and needed some time before being able to attract some interest. The unit actually went into escrow in April, but the deal eventually fell through after a few days. Since April, the unit actually underwent a few price reductions but it still was not able to find a buyer. Once August rolled around, we had a buyer looking for an attractively priced Kihei unit and it was the ideal match. We excitedly brought our buyer by and they felt it was the right move. We got the unit into escrow in early August and are proud to close 25 days later for a sale price of $307,000.
The unit itself is a spacious 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath, and 750 sqft of interior living. With an additional 75 sqft off of the back lanai, it is perfect for entertaining or utilizing as a 2nd living area. With a fenced in backyard, the unit offers a single home family feel with all of the convenience of condo living. With a low purchase price, there is some room for upgrades to bring the unit up to speed.
