There are now 20 brand new homes for sale in HPP.
Been there done that. Next up is a bug zapper.

Try a firepit in the yard. We shut off the lights and get the fire going. They divebomb it and die in the 100s. 
They has been really heavy this year.
Mahalo!

Great idea, thanks! Though last night for the first time in six weeks we kept our doors open and they seem to have moved on. Finally.

I didn't know they were to be found anywhere in Puna. This is very bad news for him and potentially others in area because they are more destructive than the ones we're familiar with.
Someone must have unwittingly brought them in from Hamakua.

Interesting, I was wondering if they were around Puna. They're in Hilo as well so I expect they get around to wherever they can live. The thing I was wondering about was if they could live in a place with such shallow soil before you hit rock. There are places in Puna where it's deeper, but if they're in HPP I guess that answers the question that they can live pretty much anywhere here.

So this, to me, seems to amplify some of the prescient opinions others have shared in this thread.

This builder wants to sell this house.  $319/SF.  If you have to buy now, that's one to look at.  If you can wait though, things really do appear to be changing at a decent clip.

Price drops are coming in hot.

This one just shaved another 10k off the price and is now under $500k.

Hopefully the buyers of the identical house next door, who paid $20,000.00 more, less than 2 months ago, still feel good about their purchase.

In this market, good things come to those who wait.  Patience is a virtue.  Haste makes waste.  Etc.

If I need a Time Machine to go back a week to meet the deadline, I think I’d keep going another decade or two, and get a real deal on price.

It is yet another overwhelmingly boring cookie-cutter house, even with its not-grey but instead, "baby boy blanket blue" paint job.

Makes me wanna go take a nap. Zzzzzzzz.

Why stop there? Go back far enough and you could be Shipman.
