HAWAIIAN WORD OF THE MONTH
|
|
|
|
“a person who herds cattle; cowboy.”
Even before the mythology of the cowboy in the American “wild west” became popularized, Hawaiian cowboys (paniolo) were wrangling longhorn cattle on Hawaiʻi Island.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Every year, we pay tribute to an important Hawaiian culture – the “Paniolo”, aka the Hawaiian Cowboy. We celebrate this tradition by way of the annual Parade and Rodeo in Makawao, our Paniolo Town.
Please Click Here to watch a great video that describes the creation and history of the Paniolo and features the music that they created.

Can You Live in Upcountry Maui Full-Time?
|
|
Upcountry Maui offers a different kind of island life: cooler mornings, more space, rural views, and communities with their own distinct rhythms. But buying in Kula, Makawao, Pukalani, or the surrounding areas also means looking beyond the view. Water service, driveway access, drainage, permitted structures, maintenance, and everyday travel can shape how a property truly works year-round. Dave’s latest guide explains what buyers should consider before making Upcountry Maui home.

Understanding “Niceness” — When being “nice” becomes a performance, it can quietly pull us away from honesty, boundaries, and our authentic selves; this week, we explore the difference between fear-based niceness and value-aligned kindness, and what it means to remain warm, caring, and connected without abandoning your own truth.

“I highly recommend Dave to anyone looking to buy or sell property in Hawaii”
This is the second home I’ve used Dave Futch for both purchasing and selling, and once again he did an outstanding job. Dave is friendly, easy to work with, hardworking, and an excellent communicator throughout the entire process. Real estate transactions can be stressful at times, but Dave always stays level-headed, professional, and solution-oriented. I truly appreciated his honesty, responsiveness, and dedication from start to finish. I highly recommend Dave to anyone looking to buy or sell property in Hawaii.
