Where do you put the money? How can you protect your assets?

Fidelity Investor editor, Jim Lowell, and Terry Coxton of Casey Research talk investment strategies on Fox News today. "Take a big chunk of cash and go for something tangible" says Coxton. He mentions gold, but another "tangible" investment is real estate. The age old strategy has always been buy low and sell high, so now is an excellent time to take some of that cash and invest it in low priced, ocean front land in Hawaii. Diversify, don't just go for the gold, buy some acreage as well. For more information on purchasing property in Hawaii, contact Sunny Petropoullakis RA (808)959-1117 sunnypetro@yahoo.com

Owner Financing in Hawaii

We have a new link to share with the world:

http://www.ownerfinancinghawaii.synthasite.com/

Andreas, one of our agents created this site to help explain and showcase properties with owner financing. Content will still be added as it becomes available, but it is up and running.
There you will find some helpful information and more details on the properties available with owner financing.
Just recently Andreas had a call from a buyer that was quite direct about not wanting to go through a bank for financing due to where the economy is right now.
Owner financing does offer some unique benefits to buyers that can not be offered by banks and conventional lenders.
If you are interested purchasing something or have questions regarding the process, contact Andreas at 808-989-9436 or hawaiilandrealtyco@yahoo.com.

Green living in Hawaii

Many are concerned about being "green", which could mean anything from recycling, shopping with a re-usable bag, to building an entire house out of "green" materials. Some have dreams of being completely self-sufficient and earth friendly. Maybe you just want to be independent from "The Man", and free from the uncertainty of the economy.

Here on the Big Island you can get an acre in a rural neighborhood with no CC&Rs.Being free of Covenants Codes & Restrictions, means you can build your house any way you want, and paint it any color you want.You can build out of sand bags,or reclaimed lumber,use solar, or you can grow a acre of papayas and bananas, or maybe have your own herd of dairy goats. Imagine living on an acre where fruit and vegetables grow all year round.

Here in Hawaii there is such a subdivision, it is called Hawaiian Paradise Park, and one acre lots start at $30,000.00 cash. It has electric and telephone, but no county water, we collect our own water(no water bill!Yeah!). Come live your dream!

Want advice about going solar and living off the land? Need information about using environmentally friendly building materials in Hawaii? Want to buy some land in Hawaii with a low down payment of$2,000.00 and only $650.00 per month, owner financing?Call Sunny Petropoullakis RA (808)959-1117

Big Island Mo Bettah

Honolulu may be rated #12 in the current Monocle report on the top liveable cities in the world, and #1 of US cities. But, as we say here, Big Island mo bettah... For the following liveable reasons:

1. Not so densely populated - more room to breathe! Not to mention actual land area (why they call it the "Big Island")
   
2. Land and home prices are still reasonable. Just ask us.
   
3. All those same water sports available, though less crowded.
4. Snow sports sporadically; hunting and hiking all the time.
5. More relaxed, Hawaiian style atmosphere
6. Anyway, Honolulu is just a short flight away, should you want more shopping, etc. in the big city
   
7. Country living on larger acreages both available and affordable.
8. Wide variety of climate zones to choose from on the island.

Living in a big city is no longer necessary for creative input. As Anya Kamenetz discusses in Psychology Today:

Flatworld economists and sociologists look at the growth of telecommuting and instant messaging, e-mailing and videoconferencing, outsourcing and offshoring, and conclude that technology puts creative individuals at all levels, from Boston to Bangladesh, on a level playing field. Increasingly complex tasks in medical, legal, and editorial industries are being outsourced; where you are in the world doesn't matter, because everyone has access to the same tools, technology, and information. As Thomas Friedman put it in a recent interview, "When the world gets this flat, when so many people have this much productivity and this many distributive tools of innovation and collaboration...whatever can be done, will be done." In other words, when people are equipped with the right tools, the result will be creativity and innovation—regardless of locale.

Should I buy?

That is probably the most frequent question I get asked these days. "Should I buy, Andreas?" Without a doubt, I say do it! Do it because:
Interest rates are way low and there is talk that the Feds won't be dropping them again any time this year. In some cases we're already at 3% - 4%, after that its free money, and that just wont happen.
Prices are at a 3 year low! With the last boom a pleasant distant memory, prices of homes in some locations are almost back to where they were before the boom. In a lot of subdivisions, vacant land prices have dropped by as much as 50% - 60%.
Hawaii represents something different to everyone, a place to retire, a place to raise family, paradise... Compared to the mainland, although we have seen significant price drops, Hawaii has faired a lot better. Prices have been holding steady as Hawaii, to some degree, is isolated from certain attributes that were involved in causing the slump on the mainland.
So basically, my answer is: Buy. Plain and simple.

Why I live in Hawaii

Bay Front Coffee, Kava & Tea serves up an ancient Hawaiian drink called Kava.There is Dave at the bar serving up some Kava in a coconut shell.

"Your head is affected most pleasantly. Thoughts come cleanly.
You feel friendly...never cross...You cannot hate with kava in you."
-Tom Harrison, Savage Civilization, 1937

What is Kava you may ask?Kava (Piper methysticum) is an age-old herbal drink that was the beverage of choice for the royal families of the South Pacific. Believed to originate from Melanesia, kava grows abundantly in the sun-drenched islands of Polynesia. Although drank for centuries by the islanders, it was only during Captain Cook’s voyage to the Pacific in 1768-1771 when white man first encountered the plant and its consumption in sacred ceremonies. According to Cook’s account, natives chewed or pounded the root and mixed it with water to produce a brownish, often bitter brew which they then consumed for its psychoactive properties. A soothing drink with proven medicinal effects, kava is now available to anyone seeking to calm nerves or ease stress as well as anxiety while combating fatigue the natural way. Its special anti-depressant components fight the "blues" and bring on a happy, tranquil state. Kava is amazing for treating ailments like migraine headaches and cramps but best of all, it keeps the mind alert as the body relaxes. This traditional drink still plays a key role in Fijian, Samoan, and Tongan societies where it is drank in ceremonies meant to honor visitors, unite participants and validate their social identities. A member of the black pepper family, kava’s active properties stems from the kavalactones found in its roots.

I actually drink coffee most times I visit the Bay Front Coffee, Kava and Tea company which is a lovely Kau coffee, and reminds me of a French Roast.
Also, Chef Lisa bakes up fresh sweets daily like carrot cake,blood orange cake, Kava brownies, Lava cake and chocolate chip cookies.
