Trump Tower Waikiki – Update on Sales Activity

Trump Tower Waikiki – Update on Sales Activity

In respone to a blog posted a few days ago on Trump Tower Waikiki sales activity, I received a phone call from Frank Kim, who is involved with Trump Tower sales here in Honolulu, who had read the blog post and offered some corrections and updated information.  Here’s what he emailed me:

“There are 27 units, 101% of asking due to resolds and $1,620 per square foot.”

That’s amazing.  Resales are brisk and values are not only holding but appreciating at Trump Tower Waikiki.

I hope to be meeting Frank in the near future for a grand tour of some of the building features and amenities that I have not had the privilege of seeing yet, as well as learning about some units currently for sale with some great purchase incentives.

Mahalo Frank!
