Another office condo unit sells at Keawe Business Center

The timing has never been better to own at Keawe Business Center.
LAHAINA – Keawe Business Center LLC announced that it has closed on the sale of six of its 13 units at the Keawe Business Center Class “A” office condominium.
Of the seven remaining units, there is only one third floor unit, which has extraordinary ocean and Lanai views. For those who want ground floor access, there are only two corner units available, and if a larger floor area is needed, there are four contiguous units on the second floor offering up to 4,160 square feet. The choices are getting limited, so if you have thought about owning your office space, the time to act is now. Prices at well below replacement cost coupled with still historically low interest rates yield a net cost of buying far lower than paying rent.
The remaining units range in size from 858 to 1,495 gross square feet, and prices range from $327,000 to $517,000, which represents a dramatic discount from the original prices of $479,000 to $778,000. That’s a reduction of over 30 percent! As a bonus, the remaining units will be delivered with a complete restroom, ready for floor and wall treatments, and framed, demised walls, which saves each buyer over $10,000.
The timing has never been better to own. We all know that interest rates are beginning to rise, but they are still at historical lows. Most businesses qualify for 90 percent financing under the SBA 504 program, and 100 percent financing is available for medical doctors and dentists. And, the seller is willing to help find creative solutions for timing issues such as lease expiration and finding a replacement tenant, and is willing to give the time needed for plans and building permits.
Buyers can take control of their business’s future, and no longer have to deal with landlords, by owning their own office. Keawe Business Center represents an excellent opportunity for business owners to invest in their future, giving them more flexibility when they’re ready to sell their business or retire.
