Buying a Short Term Rental in HAWAII - Which Island is the BEST ???

[@poonekar]

In my research using cash on cash only (so not including appreciation) I found Big Island to be the most profitable and Kauai the least before the Lahaina fire. Things have been abnormal since then, but looking at YOY Q3-only RevPAR data, Maui and Big Island are down 13%, Kauai down 8% and Oahu up 10%. But RevPAR doesn’t tell the whole story. Insurance is up causing HOA to go up 50% YOY in many cases making most properties cashflow negative even with 30% down. There are very few exceptions and so people need investor friendly agents like you and a lot of patience to acquire these.

Great videos and tools. Why filter out leaseholds?

I lived in Hawaii in the mid 70s. The evening news on TV always ended… “Lucky you live Hawaii.” I hope that’s still true today! Aloha!

Is there anything decent if we only had $100,000 to put down?

It is a very nice presentation. However there are better ways to earn money on investments than short term rentals.

[@JesseGWald]

Yes, but can you also use those investments for your own vacations?

I don't think so. I don't like fire 🔥
