Recent Hawaii Flip Case Studies

Real examples of how we handle repairs and sales across the 808.

Project Puna

Pahoa/Keaau | 96778
Repair Cost $45,000
Time to Pending 14 Days
Located in Lava Zone 2 with unpermitted additions, this property was uninsurable for traditional buyers. We purchased the home cash, handling the complex permit issues and clearing the dense jungle overgrowth that had taken over the lot.

Project Pearl City

Pearl City/Aiea | 96782
Repair Cost $85,000
Time to Pending 18 Days
A classic 1960s single-wall construction plantation home with severe ground termite damage in the framing. The heirs wanted to sell quickly to liquidate the estate without paying for tenting or extensive structural repairs.

Project Upcountry

Makawao/Kula | 96768
Repair Cost $38,000
Time to Pending 11 Days
Facing the Act 125 mandate, this property had an old cesspool that required conversion to a septic system—a $30k+ expense the seller couldn't afford. We bought the property AS-IS and took on the conversion liability ourselves.

Hawaii's Unique Market: Lava Zones & Leasehold Challenges

Selling a home in Hawaii involves more than just island time. From "Lava Zone" insurance restrictions on the Big Island to the expiring lease terms on "Leasehold" condos in Honolulu, traditional sales can hit major roadblocks. Additionally, the Act 125 mandate requires the conversion of all cesspools by 2050, a massive expense that kills many deals in escrow. We buy properties statewide—including those with termite damage, unpermitted Ohana units, or short leases—letting you bypass the repairs and uncertainty.

Why Selling Your Hawaii Home Now
Prevents Equity Loss.

"Holding costs are the silent equity killer. Waiting 90 days for a 'higher price' often nets you less money once you factor in mortgage payments, insurance, taxes, and maintenance."

3 Methods to Sell Your House Fast:
Which One Best Fits Your Timeline?

Method 1:
Listing with an Agent
(The Traditional Route)

Hawaii Realtors are good options for maximum price with MLS listings, however, they are bad for speed. This method requires repairs, staging, and 90 to 180 days to actually sell. Once the property sells, the owner will need to get approval for the mortgage loan which could take another 60 days.

Method 2:
For Sale By Owner
(FSBO)

Selling your Hawaii house by owner (FSBO) will save you 3% commission; which is $12,000 on a $400,000 property. However, this requires you to handle legal paperwork, do your own marketing, vet your own buyers, contingency clauses, and do any repairs on your own. This requires intense effort, hidden costs, with an unpredictable timeline to sell.

Method 3:
Cash Home Buyers
(The ASAP Route)

This is the only method if you need to sell your house fast in Hawaii. We skip the banks and agents entirely. We buy houses with our own cash reserves, giving you complete control over the closing date.

Helping Hawaii Homeowners In 5 Distinct Ways

Every homeowner's situation is unique. We believe in offering the path that serves your goals, not just ours. From instant cash to expert referrals, we have a solution.

2

Mortgage Buyout (Subject-To)

Do you have a mortgage rate under 3.9%? Your loan is an asset. We can take over your payments, allowing us to leverage the low rate to easily cover PITI with reliable tenants with market rents in Hawaii. Not all houses qualify, but this is a popular option if you have a low rate mortgage. You get immediate debt relief and often a higher purchase price than you could get with a real estate agent sale.

  • Best For: Low equity with low interest rates.
  • Benefit: Nets more money than a cash offer.
  • Process: House goes into a Trust & we service the loan.
Request Mortgage Buyout
3

Concierge Pre-Sale Assistance

Our goal is to secure multiple offers within the first 7 days. This method is superior to a standard Hawaii MLS listing. We launch an aggressive marketing campaign to our network of investors and buyer agents before the property hits the MLS. This option is equal to, but better than, listing with a normal real estate agent.

  • Best For: Maximum exposure, bidding wars.
  • Strategy: Aggressive pre-sale network marketing.
  • Support: We help you move or clean out, then we help sell.
Request Concierge Service
4

Realtor Referral

We will personally introduce you to a top 1% performing agent in Hawaii who specializes in quick turnarounds. As a Direct Principal Buyer, if our cash offer isn't the right fit, we won't leave you stranded. Free of charge, we just want to help connect you to the right people to sell fast. We will look for realtors who have sold comparable properties nearby and recently that have listings go pending quickly.

  • Best For: New builds or pristine homes, wanting max retail price.
  • Network: Only "Superstar" agents, proven history of results.
Request Agent Referral
5

Contractor Referral

If you can get approved for a loan or have the money in savings to renovate your Hawaii house, you should do that and we can help. Do you want to fix the house yourself to keep maximum equity? We respect that, it's your house after all. We'll open our Rolodex and connect you with the same honest, fair-priced remodeling companies we trust with our own projects. This is a great option and the referral is free, we just want to help you in any way we can.

  • Best For: DIY sellers maximizing profit.
  • Trust: Vetted, licensed pros we use daily.

Local Hawaii Real Estate Expertise

Hawaii isn't like the mainland. From Leasehold complexities to corrosive "salt air" damage, we understand the unique challenges island homeowners face.

🐜

Termite & Salt Damage

Hawaii's humid climate and salt air wreak havoc on Single Wall Construction homes. Formosan ground termites can destroy structural integrity unseen. We buy houses with extensive wood rot and termite damage, saving you the cost of tenting or structural rebuilding.

⚖️

Stop Hawaii Foreclosure

Hawaii utilizes a non-judicial foreclosure process that allows lenders to move quickly once a Notice of Default is filed. Our cash process is designed to close in as little as 7 days, paying off the lender before the public auction occurs to protect your credit.

🌋

Lava Zones & Mold

Properties in high-risk Lava Zones (Zones 1 & 2 on Big Island) or those suffering from toxic black mold due to tropical humidity are difficult to insure and sell. We purchase properties in "As-Is" condition, assuming the environmental risks so you don't have to.

📜

Probate & Land Court

Navigating Hawaii's dual recording system (Regular System vs. Land Court) complicates inheritance. We specialize in resolving "Clouded Title" issues and working with Ancillary Probate for out-of-state heirs, allowing families to liquidate assets months faster.

📉

Leasehold & AOAO Fees

Selling a property with a Short Leasehold or skyrocketing AOAO maintenance fees is nearly impossible on the MLS. We buy units with expiring leases and outstanding association liens, covering the transfer costs directly at the closing table.

🏗️

Unpermitted Ohana Units

Unpermitted "Ohana" units or wet bars often trigger Notice of Violation (NOV) from the DPP, stalling traditional sales. We buy homes with existing code violations, assuming all liability for retrofitting the property to meet County building codes.

We Buy All Types of Hawaii Residential Property

Island architecture faces unique challenges. Whether you own a vintage plantation home or a high-rise condo, we understand the value and the specific issues caused by salt air, humidity, and volcanic terrain.

Plantation & Single-Wall

Historic homes often face severe termite damage and single-wall insulation issues. We buy these older properties even if they have dry rot, Canec ceilings, or require complete electrical rewiring.

Post & Pier Foundations

Hillside homes in rainy valleys like Manoa or Hilo often suffer from soil erosion. We purchase homes with shifting piers or structural settling caused by the wet, tropical climate "As-Is."

Hollow Tile & CMU Homes

Masonry is standard for hurricane resistance, but salt air takes a toll. If your property suffers from concrete spalling or rebar corrosion, we will still make a fair cash offer.

Leasehold Properties

Lease terms expiring soon? We buy properties with short lease terms or complicated fee conversion issues. We navigate the complex paperwork so you can cash out before the lease reverts.

Condos & Townhomes

Honolulu and Waikiki units often face rising maintenance costs. We buy condos facing special assessments, high HOA fees, or strict new restrictions on short-term vacation rentals.

Lava Zones & Catchment

Big Island properties in Lava Zones 1 & 2 are difficult to insure. We buy rural acreage and homes relying on water catchment tanks or cesspools, regardless of insurance eligibility.
