The Fallingwater of Honolulu

OAHu ~ Honolulu $4,800,000

I

ntroducing “The Crest”, an architecturallysignificant landmark in Honolulu. Developed by Earl Nisbet, Frank Lloyd Wright’s apprentice, 4131 Black Point Pl has been called The Fallingwater of Honolulu. Wright’s coined Organic Architecture flows in Nisbet’s spectacular steel-frame creation, where terraced cliff-side architecture maximizes Pacific Ocean views from every room. Intricate handcarved details adorn built-in closets, desks, drawers and bookshelves. Intelligent architecture allows for natural light to fill every room.

E

arl Nisbet lived and studied alongside Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin, Wright’s elite architectural training facility and home.

Selected as one of thirty elite apprentices to study under Wright, Nisbet fully embraced Organic Architecture when constructing 4131 Black Point Place, “The Crest”.

Nisbet wrote, “I visited the site in evenings, early mornings, in rain and in windy weather trying to feel the ambiance of the place.” (Taliesin Fellows Newsletter, 2002). Located in prestigious, gated Black Point, The Crest is the embodiment of architectural art. This is 4131 Black Point Place.

hen we were children, we didn’t think about saving money on heating and cooling or that a new roof would enhance the resale value of a house. No; then, our underdeveloped senses of practicality were overshadowed by pure fantasy. Whether inspired by books, movies, music, or our own wild imaginations, childhood dreams once outweighed reality.

For many of us, these daydreams shaped the visions of our ideal personal domains—the house that mothers couldn’t tell you to clean up; the house that never ran out of candy; the house that had a submarine inside a swimming pool.

We dreamed of having bathrooms that would brush our teeth for us and holes in the ceiling to see the stars. While these ideas might have been pure imagination as a child, some versions of these fantasies do exist within Hawaii’s homes that capture the dream lifestyle.

perfect. Other possible rooms for entertaining include a multimedia room, and game or billiards room. If you have a passion for music, customize your own recording studio.

Now that you’ve graduated from goldfish, adopt more exotic aquatic pets to house in a saltwater fish tank. Splashing or relaxing in a swimming pool is a dream for all ages. Whether it’s a basic lap pool or one that resembles a lagoon, a backyard body of water is the perfect playground.

Because the idea of a dream lifestyle evolves over the years based on our interests, you may prefer an industrial kitchen, a humidor, or a wine cellar, over some of the more ostentatious suggestions. Whatever features you desire to live the dream lifestyle, you can find them, or have them customized, in Hawaii’s luxury homes.

From the simple customizations to complex installations, any detail can make a dream come true. Although pocket doors for indoor-outdoor living aren’t out of the ordinary in Hawaii, consider installing them in your bedroom so you can lounge in bed with uninterrupted views of the sunrise or sunset. If your dream lifestyle is more active than passive, consider adding on a yoga studio, a gym, or a personal putting green in your backyard so you’ll always be at the top of your game.

Golf may be more of an adult’s dream, but home theaters appeal to all ages.

Whether the theater includes stadium seating, couches, a snack bar, or nostalgic decor, you will want to be sure that your movie-viewing experience is picture

THE RISKS: • The partners may not meet the “qualified use” requirement – i.e. the requirement that property be held for investment, because the partners held the property briefly and only for the sole purpose of selling it.

• The transfer to the partners may be treated as a sale followed by a liquidation of the partnership.

Elect under IRC § 761(a) not to be treated as a partnership for tax purposes; 4. Execute the purchase and sale contract as tenants in common; 5. Make sure the proceeds are distributed to the tenant in common owners; 6. Make sure TIC owners participate in all income and expenses associated with the property; and 7. Consult with your tax professional well in advance of a proposed sale to determine if any of the above suggestions are suitable for your situation.

TWO ALTERNATIVE STRATEGIES TO THE DROP AND SWAP RISK: 1. Partners wishing to exchange purchase the departing partner’s partnership interests for cash and reconfigure the partnership to exclude the departing partner. The partnership then proceeds with the exchange.

2. The partnership negotiates to sell the property, but requires the buyer to provide – as part of the purchase price – an installment note in an amount equivalent to the departing partner’s(s’) interest. Thereafter, the partnership assigns the note to the departing partner(s) before any payments are made.

Taxpayers should keep in mind that these types of transactions are inherently risky and are therefore often subject to scrutiny.

As such, they can be re-characterized by the IRS under the step or substance over form doctrines as the sale of a partnership interest, which is precluded from tax deferral treatment under IRC § 1031.

Taxpayers should therefore always consult their tax advisor well in advance of their contemplated transaction.
