I was born and raised on the Big Island, lived in Captain Cook in a renovated coffee shack on 6 acres of land. I remember being very little and the first signal light was installed in Kailua! Hapuna beach had no hotel, Hualalai Four Seasons was all lava rock. Pine trees was four wheel drive only and only the locals knew how to get there. Saddle road was a dangerous two lane road with pot holes, and blind curves. Took forever to get to Hilo. I live in Santa Barbara, California now and haven’t been back to the Big Island in 20 years! I’m finally going back to visit in September. I think I’m going to be shocked on how much it’s changed!

Having been to and explored all the major islands of Hawaii multiple times, my favorite is the Big Island. I can FEEL the bigness and open space of the island immediately…it’s almost impossible to drive around for hours on the other islands and have that feeling that the whole island is yours like on the Big Island. My favorite area for a home would prob be in Holualoa given the island jungle feel mixed with the fact that it’s so close to all the comforts of Kailua-Kona. PS all the fine sand beaches of the tropics are created by the various puffer fish eating the coral and rocks for the algae, and then pooping it out as fine sand…yep, the beaches are fish poop!

This is quintessential M/H. It's selling the dream, grounded with feet-on-pavement perspective and a break-down of the numbers, with lessons in local culture, climate, topography, roads, and vibe. For me, when you said yurt, I immediately thought hippies. I can't do hippies anymore. The young ones with the dreadlocks or braids, especially, lean toward narcissistic and think they're better than people who go into work every day, or who live in a residence with a garage. Their off-grid lives usually have them coming into town for shady antics when things get a little rough.

You guys are doing an awesome job with your videos. I like that you make them so much fun and give a local’s perspective on life. You obviously put a lot of time, effort and heart into making them. If I didn’t already have a realtor, I would hire you even though I don’t “know” you personally which says a lot when making a purchase of this size. Keep on keeping on 💫 PS. Thanks for showing on the map where the areas are that you are talking about😂

Thank you very much. Much of our history originated from the other islands. We had so many relatives who were born, and are still born on the Big Island. Many love the Plantation Village homes are still around, homes that our Mother and her siblings grew up in. I'd love to go back, but at this point, it is just impossible. When I left back in the 70's, cane fields surrounded out town, and there was no traffic. It just isn't the same. Can you do the Hamakua Coast next time with all the small towns.

Love you guys and watched almost every video you guys done. Learned alot. You guys are in my hood and are in the pricey, upscale, high maka maka hoods. I love that I can relate with your guys lanquage but plenty kamaaina’s no can even think of living in those neighborhoods. I know you guys in the business of selling but there is a realtor/contractor team on the Hilo side making big waves and changing how things are done. Come back Kona - love seeing my hood and learning more about it.

Please don’t encourage more mainlanders to move here. They are driving housing prices up to unaffordable levels for those who have lived here forever. Our kids can’t afford to buy their own homes anymore. Plus We are tired of the rude ones that honk at us for being in their way. Please consider how the influx of misfits affects us locals. Thank you.

I have not been back to the big island in 20 years and it’s changed for the worse. All locals are disappearing and ghetto mainlanders now here. It’s dirty and still underdeveloped. I went to a famers market in Waimea and a local said the population was shrinking. Maui and Oahu are much better islands to live. If you’re broke or a tweaker, this is the place for you. There is a reason real estate is cheaper on the big island.
