91-1091 Keoneula Blvd #H1, Ewa Beach, HI 96706 · Report Date: April 6, 2026 · Prepared by Team Taparra
Aloha, Monica & Stephanie!
Week 2 brought a major milestone — the home inspection is officially behind you and the only repair item has been fully resolved. Out of the entire inspection, the buyer asked for just one thing, and we moved fast to get it handled. The repair authorization was signed by all parties on the same day it was sent, which is a great sign for how smoothly this transaction is going. Here is the full update on everything that happened and what is ahead.
This report covers everything that happened this week, what's coming up in the next seven days, and where you stand right now on every open item. As always, your team is just a text or call away if you have any questions.

This Week's Activity Log
Here's a detailed breakdown of everything your team completed this week, day by day. Every item below represents real progress toward your closing.
Friday, April 3
✅ Home Inspection Results Received
The buyer completed their home inspection and submitted one repair request: the water heater in the attic was found to be actively leaking, with the drip pan nearly full. This was the only item the buyer asked to be addressed out of the entire inspection.
✅ Repair Options Presented to Sellers
Justin reviewed the repair estimates and presented two options with a full cost breakdown: a standard tank replacement at approximately $1,560 plus tax, or an upgrade to a tankless system at approximately $2,054 plus tax.
Sunday, April 6
✅ Sellers Approved Tankless Water Heater Upgrade
After a phone call with Justin, Monica approved the tankless water heater upgrade. The decision was easy — the cost difference was minimal and the tankless system is a better long-term solution for the property.
✅ Repair Authorization Signed by All Parties — Same Day
The repair authorization paperwork was sent via DocuSign and both Monica and Stephanie signed on the same day. The document was then sent to the buyer's agent with the plumber and electrician estimates attached. The buyer signed the same day as well, making the repair authorization fully executed. The buyer's agent team can now schedule the contractors to complete the work before closing.

Your Action Items
Monica: HARPTA Waiver Documents
Please continue working with Brad and Lois on the HARPTA waiver documents. The filing deadline is approximately April 14 — getting any remaining documents to them as soon as possible is important. You are doing great — keep it up.
Window Warranty Information
If either of you come across any window warranty information from your father's records, please let us know. The buyer's inspector noticed some fogging in the windows and we are checking if there is a transferable warranty from the manufacturer.
Monica: Save Your Repair Receipt
Once the plumber is scheduled, hold onto the receipt or invoice after payment and send it to Justin so we can submit it to escrow for your reimbursement at closing.
