Maui & Kauai Real Estate Insider Guides

Hawaii Insider Publications Available

I continue to be impressed with the tools offered by my new company, eXp Realty.  One of those tools, kvKore, makes it easy to offer automated e-copies of my real estate publications.  I specialize in two of the Hawaiian islands, Maui & Kauai.  I think these two are the best two and it's the reason I've lived and worked on both.  I have separate publications for each which are stuffed full of information and charts providing insight into our islands and our real estate market conditions.

 

The "Insider Guide to Maui Real Estate" is now available for download HERE and the "Insider Guide to Kauai Real Estate is available HERE.  Both are FREE to those who agree to receive periodic real estate information.

Aloha,
