Summary
Moana Pacific re-sales have been robust since the building opened a year ago (10% of original owners have sold their unit), but the pace is slowing to a healthier level. The developer is slowly selling a few units held in its inventory. In addition, a large number of units have recently come on the market as owners reached the required one year holding period.
Here’s a quick breakdown of 73 unit resales from April 2007 to February 2008:
East Tower – 33
West Tower – 40
’01 units – 10
’02 and ’09 units – 14
’03 and ’08 units – 14
’04 and ’07 units – 16
’05 and ’06 units – 19
It comes as no surprise, several units are listed significantly above market price. It’s no wonder 9 units have been on the market greater than 100 days. Over pricing leads to a large supply and there isn’t enough buyer demand, so the units remain on market much longer. At the current sales rate, it will take 6.6 months to sell all units currently listed for sale. Improper pricing forced some owners to wait well over 200 days for a sale.
