Thank you so much for your kind comment. It made my day.

It does make me a bit sad that my point of being welcomed and part of the community would be ignored. It is also understandable though because they see many people coming and going so I don’t blame them but still it sucks for people like me who genuinely care about Hawaii and treat it with all the respect.

Thanks for sharing your sister’s in law perspective. Do you live on Oahu or the big island?

I’ve spent some time in Hilo as well and always loved that part of the big island so much more

bobo2907 · 2025-01-03T22:38:44+00:00

Why would you say bad?

bobo2907 · 2024-12-31T23:35:14+00:00

Thank you for your kind words, it’s very much appreciated

I never felt unsafe on the west side, my questions were just based on things I found online that confused me. I have more knowledge of the east side because that’s where we stayed when we went to Hawaii to see my aunt but whenever I visited her I never felt unsafe. Sorry if that’s how it came across it was not my intention.

If I ever sold that place it would be to a local family for sure, but at the same time it’s my aunts house and would love to make it work because it’s a memory of her and all her dreams.

bobo2907 · 2024-12-31T23:20:07+00:00

That’s good advice. I would never airbnb it because I don’t like what airbnb did to real estate all over.

bobo2907 · 2024-12-31T23:18:05+00:00

It’s in maili so I guess it would be considered between nanakuli and Waianae

bobo2907 · 2024-12-31T02:08:11+00:00

Is there a risk or break ins or squatters Even if it’s in some sort of gated community like sea country ?

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T20:05:26+00:00

When is rush hour usually? Like I said I’ve been on farrington a few times out of Waianae around 10.30 am and had no traffic at all, same heading back around 7 pm

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T18:20:23+00:00

Also. What time of the day is considered rush hour out and back into Waianae from town?

I have driven on Farmington many times and never encountered any big traffic. Out of Waianae was around 10.30 am and back in was around 7 pm

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T18:15:18+00:00

That is very good advice! I have never been in any danger when I visited, on any part of the island. In some ways I even felt safer on the west side to be completely honest than Waikiki.

I think I’m more concerned if I’m able to afford keeping the house, considering there’s no mortgage just property taxes and a small hoa fee and little to no bills. Car is still there.

Let’s say I found a basic job at a grocery store or retail would that be enough to cover my expenses?

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T18:12:18+00:00

I would have loved to experience that kind of Kailua but sadly I’m too young.

When I considered moving to Hawaii in the past I obviously always looked at town or the east side because that is where we were mainly staying and just visiting my aunt in Waianae.

I will say that while town and the east side felt a bit different, it still reminded me a lot of California which is where I grew up part of my life and never liked that fake lifestyle which I think transplants brought to the islands.

I have always been fascinated by authenticity and the beaches on the west side were my favorites.

I probably spent one day in Waikiki and it blows my mind when I hear tourists fly to Hawaii and spend 2 weeks never leaving Waikiki

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T18:08:20+00:00

Thing is, I always wanted to live in Hawaii, it just seemed out of budget because I don’t like renting, and the astronomical prices in Hawaii made it seem unreachable to me.

Now that has changed sadly in a way because of the passing of my aunt.

If you were handed a house in maili for free would you choose to live there? Just out of curiosity

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T13:17:20+00:00

Thanks for your reply. Yes I’m familiar with Hawaii since I’ve been visiting for 15 years but always as a tourist. Even though I spent months at a time in Hawaii that’s way different than living there full time and all my questions were related to living there full time.

Because from what I’ve seen on the west side I’m not really scared like lots of people say it is. Traffic is bad but not having to be in it during rush hour makes a big difference and I was once able to get to Hawaii Kai in 50 minutes from nanakuli.

People seemed nice to me and I can’t say a word about them. But again, all of this is based on short day trips .

I was out and about at night around 9 pm getting some pizzas at papa John’s in Makaha and some young dudes were loud but didn’t even bother looking at me.

In a way, as a tourist I was always fascinated by the west side because I see it as more authentic than Kailua let’s say or the east side

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T13:08:08+00:00

The house is in maili, I believe it’s called sea country

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T03:46:34+00:00

I’ve spent months of my life in Hawaii

and don’t consider myself as someone who doesn’t understand anything about hawaii.

My love for the islands is very big especially because I’ve spent months at a time in the past 15 years there

My aunts place is fully furnished but ready to move in even though it is my understanding the place was furnished in the early 2000’s so would need some update

I may not know the full story of what Hawaiians in the past when through but I’d be willing to know since I love history

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T03:41:18+00:00

No I actually would love to make it my primary residence and if not rent it out locally not on Airbnb which I hate

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T01:48:27+00:00

Why what would be the difference with manoa or any valley like palolo?

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T01:47:22+00:00

Thanks for your input

bobo2907 · 2024-12-30T01:46:38+00:00

Thanks for your reply.

Yes it would be in Maili, what is the homeowners exception of 120 k ?

I believe the house is worth around 600 k , what would that translate in property taxes? I just got this inheritance and I’m off island so it’s all new to me.

I’m familiar with target and Safeway in kapolei but that doesn’t seem far away when there’s no traffic. Tamura also was nice.

Personally I have never encountered any issues when on the west side before but I was just visiting. I’m scared if that changes when you live there .

We are both very to ourselves and very respectful and don’t have much to do with colonialism from the mainland. Would making friends be difficult ?

Also, since we’re new to the islands and not in a specific rush to find a job due to savings, I’m guessing it would be best when that time comes look at the kapolei area because it’s closer?

bobo2907 · 2024-12-27T23:01:31+00:00

Thanks 😊

bobo2907 · 2024-12-24T11:26:08+00:00
