At this morning's meeting, we had Reiko Lewis from Ventus Design give her presentation to us about her specialty, Certified Aging-in-Place (CAPS) Design. Her examples and statistics of the need and requirements of an aging-in-place design were excellent. This morning's presentation was just a brief introduction to her interior design services, but from what I've seen, it would be worthwhile to contact her if you are thinking of any renovations or building from scratch to get the advantages of her CAPS designs that do not disrupt the "normal" life style.

A couple of weeks ago, East Oahu Realty, Inc. got a nice listing on Puu Panini Avenue and I blogged about it here: 4156 Puu Panini Ave. This corner lot that has approximately 41,747 square feet of land has amazing development potential. I am just bringing up this listing because it got more exposure in yesterday's Honolulu Magazine Real Estate Blog.

4156 Puu Panini Avenue

Listed by East Oahu Realty, Inc.

While out looking at the broker's open houses this morning, I also drove by a recent listing of a very large lot that could be ideal for many developers. It is a corner lot located at Puu Panini Avenue and 22nd Avenue that has over 41,000 square feet of land currently zoned R-5. According to a feasibility study that the seller had prepared, the area could have a lot of different uses. Are you a developer or do you know one? What do you think would be the best way to use this lot if you purchased it?

Manoa lot blog 8/21/12

Yesterday, I posted about a friend's vacant lot in Manoa that may be available for purchase. I drove by this morning to take a closer look at it. If you drive up and down Manoa Road, you have probably noticed an area in the middle of the valley that had some large trees trimmed recently. That looks like the area that the lot is near. I have not seen the survey of the lot so I don't know what part of that hill is part of the lot. It does look like the elevation of the lot could give it a nice view out of Manoa Valley, possibly a nice Honolulu City skyline view or maybe even some ocean? To the left is a photo that I took of the driveway leading up the the area where the existing structure is.

Do you know someone that may want to build a new home in Manoa? This could be a nice spot for it.

Honolulu Magazine Blog
"Book em Danno..."

While reading the news today, I stumbled upon Honolulu Magazine Real Estate Blog's post by Melissa Chang. It looks like an interested potential buyer of the property that the current Hawaii 5-0 film crew uses as a filming studio, Marshall Hung, may plan to re-purpose the iconic building/area into condominium units. The blog says that Hung would be planning to build condos on the South Street side of the lot while preserving the iconic building. I wonder if the condominium units in mind will be affordable residential developments like some of Hung's past projects and I wonder if any of the iconic building would become residential? Would it be cool to live in this iconic building? Even if it remains commercial or a mixed use type of building, I think it would be an interesting place to have your business also. I am looking forward to learning more about this potential development!

Approximately 13,000 sq ft of Vacant Land in Manoa may be available

A friend has asked me to keep an eye and ear out for any buyers that may have interest in purchasing vacant land in Manoa. The tax records say it has approximately 13,353 square feet and the area is zoned R-7.5 Residential. Do you know anyone interested in developing this lot?

August 15 Blog Post about ML 1209105
Saint Louis Heights Tear Down

Last week, I mentioned a new listing up St Louis Heights that would most likely be a tear down. The offers will be reviewed for that property tomorrow. The large perimeter lot could be an excellent project for a developer if the right type of structure can be built there. The information for that listing is too the left (ML 1209105).

I am mentioning this again today because a new listing just down the street from that St Louis Drive listing came on the market yesterday. It is 2226 Noah Street and it is described as a 3 bedroom and 1.5 bath upstairs with a 2 bedroom and 1 bath downstairs that has been renovated in 2008 for and listed for $980,000 by Leslie S Hirahara Realtors. The lot is not as large and is not a perimeter lot like the St Louis Drive tear down listing is, but it is ready to live in. The view from Noah Street also has more power lines breaking up your view plane. Such a near by listing that is not exactly the same product coming on the market within days of the St Louis Drive listing makes me curious to see how it will affect the activity of each of these listings.

What is your opinion or preference? Would you go for the tear down on the perimeter lot and build your own home or go with what is already ready to move in?

There has been some intersting real estate related news about Honolulu in the media over the last couple of days.

Honolulu Magazine's Real Estate Blogger, Melissa Chang wrote about several East Honolulu neighborhoods being recognized as some of the best Trick-or-Treating spots in the nation.

Honolulu Magazine by Melissa Chang: http://www.honolulumagazine.com/Honolulu-Magazine/Real-Estate/October-2011/Honolulu-named-one-of-the-top-cities-for-trick-or-treating/

Yesterday's evening news announced the State of Hawaii's proposal to construct a towering skyscraper in the middle of Kakaako that is supposed to be part of a "rail ready" development goal.

KHON 2 News Skyscraper Report: http://www.khon2.com/news/local/story/Skyscraper-planned-for-Kakaako/vORFcxNUBk6ZZ11uqt5ZSQ.cspx?rss=3030

Hawaii Reporter Skyscraper Report: http://www.hawaiireporter.com/state-plans-towering-residential-skyscraper-in-honolulu/123

What are your thoughts about this?  Where do you like to Trick-or-Treat and how do you feel the proposed rail system will affect Honolulu?

Looks like there is a nice listing on Prospect Street by Coldwell Banker Pacific Properties that could be good for a developer.  What do you think would be an excellent use of that property?
