Lahaina, 3 Years After: 400 Homes, No Town

Three years after the Maui fires, what do the rebuild numbers actually say? In this edition of the Maui Real Estate Advisor, Lahaina Lee looks past the official dashboards to uncover the true status of residential and commercial recovery on the ground. While headlines report nearly 600 homes rebuilt, a closer look at the data tells a very different story once pre-fire projects are factored out. Meanwhile, Front Street has reopened to traffic, but how many destroyed commercial buildings have actually been rebuilt? We break down the real housing counts, the current state of local businesses, visitor economy shifts, and critical updates on Bill 88 condo rezoning. 👇 In This Video: The real breakdown of Lahaina's ~600 rebuilt homes (and the 200-unit catch) Front Street commercial recovery: Reopened roads vs. zero rebuilt buildings Why official permit counts don't equal finished, livable structures Maui's "K-shaped" tourism update: Higher spending, but fewer daily visitors Bill 88 (Ordinance 6008) update: Sea-level rise criteria and condo rezoning status Rebuilt homes without mail delivery & FEMA assistance timeline changes 📌 RESOURCES & LINKS You can read the full break down on our blog here: https://www.alohagroupmaui.com/blog/m...
