There is a foreclosure sale of Lawai Beach units coming up in about 4 weeks. Foreclosures usually happen because death or divorce results in non-payment of dues. There are a large number of units in the pending foreclosure. I cannot explain it. Details are on the Lawai Beach Resort website. You do not have to present to bid. Malia Harris will explain the routine to you. You should be able to snag a 1BR unit in the Alii (A) or Banyan (B) building for $3,000 or less (minimum bids are posted on the Resort's website. The purchase includes the first year's dues and use of the first year's week. Annual dues are $600+. You cannot get a fine Hawaii condo that sleeps 4 for that amount. We love Lawai Beach. When we check in, the desk clerk always says, "Welcome home."
Caution: there is currently a huge, noisy, pricey housing construction project nearby--looks like bankruptcy city to me. If you buy, you might want to deposit your week with Hawaii Timeshare Exchange for the first couple of years and trade for something else. Maui Hill? Mauna Loa Resort? Kona Coast Resort (where rooms rent for $650/night!)?
