Aloha from Princeville Kauai!It’s no surprise that our real estate activity is at a bare minimum this week. The cause was Category 5 Hurricane Lane which threatened the entire Hawaiian chain all last week. Fortunately, it is now known as Tropical Storm Lane and is skirting Kauai to the South. The Big Island bore the brunt of Lane, with Hilo facing flood conditions after being pummeled with 40+ inches of rain.As I am writing this, yet another horizontal downpour is dumping on Princeville. I’m sure Hanalei to Haena is feeling it also and I can only hope everyone stays safe. After the epic floods of April, the last thing we need is yet more rain!As I mentioned, the pickin’s are slim this week – here is your update:New Listings620098 CND A 5 $799,000 4-5-3-6-22-64 FS Kaiulani #64 1,892 sqft... 08/26/2018

David Ige and Mayor Bernard Carvalho toured the damage Monday morning by helicopter, surveying the overflowing Hanalei River, swamped neighborhoods and damanage throughout.Hundreds of people on the North Shore were rescued when dozens of landslides cut them off from the rest of the Island.
