In Illinois we have multiple governmental bodies, county, municipal, school districts, etc… that assess property taxes. Does the Kauai County tax rate cover all of these, or are there still separate taxes?

Real estate tax is a state policy - not a federal issue.

I agree about Kauai being the most beautiful but Big Island should be at least number 2: most geographically diverse of all the islands, it’s huge size helps to feed exploration and adventure, it is still quite beautiful, most affordable, less condos than Maui, amazing agriculture and farmers markets, black sand, green sand and white sand beaches, as well as rocky beaches for those who like cliff diving, amazing waterfalls, low population density, less touristy, plenty of great hiking, great local food

There's a big push nationwide to increase taxes on hotels and rentals in order to keep local residents' taxes low. I'm on the fence about that in general, but in the case of Kauai, I'm glad to see that the county is trying to make it more affordable for residents. There are more Hawaiians living on the mainland than in Hawaii because they've been priced out of home ownership. 😕

That sounds great but what is the median price of a home? How have they slowed down the number of houses being sold to people buying for a vacation/rental home?

We’ve been watching your vids tonight, preparing for our seventh visit to Kauai next month. We keep commenting on how you know your stuff! You’ve highlighted so many of our favorites. Question though… We love snorkeling Anini and our past two trips we’ve tried to see turtles but have struck out every time. A guy told us to go past the park and park under the power line towards the end of the road that there were always turtles sleeping and hanging out on that part of the reef. We tried that with no luck. Any ideas about where to find them there?
@kauaiwithanne313413 күн бұрын
Anini is a great place to see them in the morning. One the south side there's a snorkel spot next to the beach house restaurant that almost always has a few too.

When we planned our trip to Kauai to visit my parents there up in the Wailua Homesteads months in advance(6mo) we looked online for places to stay for two weeks between Christmas and new year’s from Poipu to Princeville, we found an Air B&B in the Princeville proper that was or is the cheapest of all places we looked and it was under $200 per day.

Everything there is on leasehold...there are no fee simple condos there. Everyone wants to sell before it's to late and there's not enough time left on the lease to entice someone into buying it. That said, it's a beautiful complex on a sandy beach.

With a mortgage for a (possibly) $1 million+ property, HOA fees, rental property taxes, and property management expenses, is it possible to make money (or at least break even) on a rental condo in today's market? I'm genuinely interested to know how many rental property owners are doing well vs. how many are struggling. 🌸🛖
@kauaiwithanne313412 күн бұрын
Good questions, of course there are a lot of varibles here that aren't mentioned like how much you're putting down, what your interest rate is, what's included in the HOA payment, are you self managing or using a professional manager...and a few more. There is a lot to consider and look at. Most owners on Kauai do very well.
