<p><strong>Summary</strong><br />
Since&nbsp;the <strong><a title="June 2011 market report" href="http://michael-zimmerman.com/2011/06/14/june-2011-honolulu-condominium-market-report-%e2%80%93-koolani/" target="_blank">June 2011 market report</a></strong>, Koolani completed&nbsp;installation of&nbsp;copper water piping (replaces PEX) in all 370 apartments.&nbsp; This is a significant milestone for the community and the number of sales and slightly higher sales prices reflect that.&nbsp; There&nbsp;is a nice variety to choose from in the&nbsp;14 apartments for sale and penthouse 10, in my opinion,&nbsp;has a&nbsp;great floor plan and&nbsp;wonderful Diamond Head/ocean views.&nbsp;&nbsp;While sales prices have gone up, I would also say that some apartments for sale are priced high.</p>

<p>The chart above shows the number of sales recorded each month vs. the number of apartments available for sale at the end of the month.&nbsp; In the last six months, Koolani averaged&nbsp;just over two sales&nbsp;per month.&nbsp; At that pace, it will take&nbsp;six months to sell the&nbsp;14 apartments on the market.</p>

<p><strong>Summary</strong><br />
Since my <strong><a title="November 2010 report" href="http://michael-zimmerman.com/2010/11/04/november-2010-honolulu-condominium-market-report-%e2%80%93-ko%e2%80%99olani/" target="_blank">last report</a></strong>, the Ko&#8217;olani Association of Apartment Owners concluded arbitration with the building developer, Crescent Heights.  The settlement ordered by the arbitrator is complex, but is progressing.  Meanwhile, copper water piping is being installed (replaces PEX) in nearly every apartment as I write and that process should be complete by the end of September.  There are 15 apartments for sale and two of those are penthouses.  By the way, penthouse 10 has a really nice floor plan and great Diamond Head views!  In my opinion, most of the apartments for sale are slightly to grossly overpriced.       </p>
<p><a href="http://michael-zimmerman.com/files/2011/06/Koolani.jpg"></a><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4746" style="border: black 1px solid;" title="Koolani Apartments Listed vs. Sold" src="http://michael-zimmerman.com/files/2011/06/Koolani.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="392" /><br />
The chart above shows the number of sales recorded each month vs. the number of apartments available for sale at the end of the month.  In the last six months, Ko’olani averaged under two sales per month.  At that pace, it will take over 11 months to sell the 15 apartments on the market.</p>

<p><strong>Summary</strong><br />
As I review the 10 Ko&#8217;olani apartments listed for sale, there is not much diversity for buyers to choose from.  This isn&#8217;t only true at Ko&#8217;olani, but also at many other high rise buildings in Kakaako.  Ko&#8217;olani&#8217;s sales have been very consistent all year long, so in some respects, the successful sales are partly to blame for the limited choices potential buyers face today.  Here&#8217;s what is available:  three large 2-bedroom &#8217;08 apartments, three 3-bedroom &#8217;01 apartments and a few lower floor 2-bedroom apartments.  If you are seriously looking for a particular type of apartment not listed for sale at Ko&#8217;olani today, I recommend you be ready to act on a moment&#8217;s notice.  Chances are, other competitive buyers will be looking for the same opportunities as you are.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://zimmerman.realty-buzz.com/files/2010/11/Koolani1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3705" style="border: black 1px solid;" title="Koolani Apartments Listed vs. Sold Graph" src="http://zimmerman.realty-buzz.com/files/2010/11/Koolani1.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="326" /></a><a href="http://zimmerman.realty-buzz.com/files/2010/11/Koolani.jpg"></a></p>
<p>The chart above shows the number of sales recorded each month vs. the number of apartments available for sale at the end of the month.  In the last six months, Ko’olani averaged two sales per month.  At that pace, it will take five months to sell the 10 apartments on the market.</p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Summary</strong><br />
Ko’olani sales trends have been so good that in many cases, buyer choices are quite limited.  Sales are consistent and the number of apartments for sale continues its decline that began in mid-2008.  Certain floor plans are not available as I write and not much is available on higher floors.  Some apartments are priced above what the market will bear and their time on the market confirms that observation.  B</span></span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">uyers should stand ready to act when something they&#8217;re looking for comes on the market.</span></span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> </span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Summary</strong><br />
The number of recent sales and apartments currently for sale at Ko&#8217;olani is very, very encouraging.  I am very optimistic by these sales dynamics.  Look at the graph below and you’ll notice that two very positive trends continue:  sales are solid the number of apartments for sale is still falling.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Given that the number of apartments on the market has decreased to its lowest level in three years, not all floor plans are available as I write.  For example, if someone is looking for a 3-bedroom &#8217;09 apartment, none are for sale.  In addition, a few other floor plans are not available on higher floors, so buyers should be patient, but be ready to act when something comes on the market.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.ihomefinder.com/idx/listingsMap.cfm?cid=15367&amp;hid=4069&amp;lstp=hotSheets&amp;CFID=11847111&amp;CFTOKEN=66254117" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1698" style="border: black 1px solid;" title="Ko'olani Apartments Listed vs. Sold Graph" src="http://zimmerman.realty-buzz.com/files/2009/10/koolani.gif" alt="Ko'olani Listed vs. Sold" width="500" height="301" /></a></p>
<div class="mceTemp mceIEcenter" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The chart above shows the number of sales recorded each month vs. the number of apartments available for sale at the end of the month.  In the last six months, Ko’olani averaged 2.33 sales per month.  At that pace, it will take just over 5 months to sell the 12 apartments on the market.  When the building has less than 6 months of inventory, that indicates this particular condo&#8217;s market is strong. </span></div>

<p><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Summary</span></span></strong><br />
</span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Ko&#8217;olani sales were sporadic throughout 2008, while the inventory available for sale began the year at 16 and finished much higher at 27.  The chart below depicts the number of sales recorded each month vs. the number of apartments available for sale at the end of each month.  In the last six months, Ko&#8217;olani averaged 1.5 sales per month and if that pace continues, it will take 18 months to sell the 27 homes available for sale as I write.</span></span></p>
