This is not an April Fools joke! The Seller has really reduced the price to $449,000. Back on market due to Buyers employment change. Property still the wonderful opportunity it has always been. Beautiful parcel of land with mature palms and clumping bamboo planted intentionally. Oceanviews, peak aboo of Mauna Kea. Well cared for homes in immediate area. Neighbors have internet via Hwn Tel High Speed. County water meter available but not installed. Overhead electricity to boundary. Seller open minded to considering a lot line adjustment or a Parcel Consolidation Re-subdivision (PC&R) because Seller owns adjacent parcel. Seller is willing to bear the financial expense of this process for the right offer. What an opportunity!
