very helpful information

Is it fee-simple? Who was the architect? Who was the general contractor? When was construction completed? Interested potential purchasers want to know.

not only rent$ issues but factor in strata fees how many locals can pull that off. Most of these properties have S.F.A for storage, closet space etc. Thses people are b f stupid. Vote them out is the answer.

Did you get my check?

Love this mansion, but wished it was closer to the ocean.

Homeless people living on the beach in front of your house included free of charge.

Do its occupants have to join an HOA?

Hello Caron. Would love to see this property Bijan

😍

I’m usually not interested w high rise properties but this is stunning super clean and minimalist I love it❤❤

Is it a reasonable guess that you're talking about property tax rates in Honolulu?

Pretty please 🙏🏽

Truly a #DreamHouse! The style, size, and LOCATION! 🤩

No thank you 😊

OMG love it 💝💘💖💗💕

May want to see???? Really? This is lousy advice. It doesn’t get passed without an inspection of the work! Especially electrical, Doug! Plumbing too! I was teaching my agents about this stuff in 1993 at CBPacific Properties Kailua office. The lenders won’t fund a buyers mtg. if the sq footage doesn’t match what the tax office shows when it was originally built. Agents are obligated to confirm that the sq ftg matches even if they aren’t a builder or contractor, it’s what you get paid to know. You just use a General Contractor to get the permits because it cannot be owner builder on the permits! Get only licensed people to do the work. It all needs to be done before you list the property because you may end up selling it before you find out it is missing half the house… then the Sellers are required to perform on the property as it was when they wrote the contract and the seller is STUCK with the costs to fix it and it can run into tens of thousands of dollars or more depending on how much is missing.

How much?

Thank you for the answer. The process is much different in NYC in regarding to disclosures.

Hi Doug, Thank you for the video. Not sure if you'll see this, but I have a question on ethics for you. I'm a buyer's agent in NYC and have come to realize that the listing agent didn't disclosure that a condo had a significant assessment until the bidding war started. It's a long story, but I have pretty concrete proof that he knew about the building assessment but choose not to disclosure it , until he had multiple offers. I honestly am concerned if there were multiple offers at this point. I discussed this with my buyer and he is choosing to move forward but I feel so DUPED and I'll be seeking advice from my MLS and broker but I thought you could share some of your wisdom about this.. How would you handle this problem?

Yeah I finished my basement completely, even added another electrical panel, did all the plumbing 20 years ago without a permit. I have a big basement with 4 rooms and a full bath now, without a permit. Following finishing the basement I had a big detached garage built which has a basement. I did get a permit for that but it was never final inspected. Now with all the building permit happening in my county I am afraid to sell my house. I am thinking they may ask me to rip off all the drywall to the studs. Everything is to code and has worked fine for 20 years. Now I am retired and wife wants to move to a smaller house. I am afraid to put the house on the market. The inspector for the detached was very nonchalant. I worked as an Aircraft Maintenance Technician for 50 years and was not worried about permits until now as I had a lot of experience with electrical, avionics, engines, plumbing, hydraulics, anything on any aircraft I have worked on several times. What is your opinion of what will happen when I ask for a permit?

Thailand vacation? I thought you might be over on Maui supporting the locals in their efforts to prevent toxic waste from being dumped into the ocean.

Why is everything so stark glaring white on white on white? I mean, a few things I didn't notice at first because it was something white in front of something white with white stuff all around. Stuff becomes invisible. And it isn't just this place. Most of the videos I look at, it's this same white on white on white on white. This isn't even the worst offender: some kitchens even the cabinets are painted stark white. Don't set down an egg; you'll never find it again. There's a lot to like here, but WOW is it white.

Sold!!

Beautiful!!! my dream home!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Amazing property and great attention to detail just on the wrong island 🏝️

Thanks, Caron! I loved this and will definitely check out Fishcake! Tuesday chef for Thai and Lao food sounds tempting but will have to come often to try them all!

Magnifique ❤

Loving the all white 💖

I assume if the landlord is on the mainland, the court would not allow a zoom hearing between the mainland and the tenant in Hawai'i. Is that correct?

Oooh 😀 that is beautiful 💖

Hawaii’s building department needs to be sued for incompetence Most homes that are built are typically within the building code They should just issue the permit and catch problems in inspections And do away with plans must be stamped All there causing is price gouging from architects/ drafters/engineers it’s a joke I’ve been trying to get plan’s drawn up for a simple 800 sqft 2 bed one bath all ready fired one For using trusses when I wanted conventional roof framing No engineer will stamp plans that they didn’t draw or know the architect that did draw up It’s a joke I’ve got 1000 plus homes and a few multi story buildings under my belt in the 40 years I’ve been doing this Good luck

Fantabulous 😮

Hello are you available to assist with a sale I’m getting ready to close on?

That was beautiful 💖

I can dig it 😀

Loved it. Mahalo for sharing. Very few e tertainers could only have one job and survive. Most if not all had day jobs. Ha

nice house except the highway is your backyard.... busiest road in Oahu

Awesome

How adorable

I live in NC, there’s an adition built 400 square foot or about simple no windows storage made into rooms but it’s attached to the house . So what now, ? Will I get in trouble for that ? I plan on keeping the house forever so do you think they will tell me to torn down ? Or won’t add to the value of the home ?

Wow I’m moving to Hawaii 🙌💯💵

Thanks Doug. Huge help understanding a complex economic and political topic. I expect substantial unintended consequences from this heavy-handed law. Do you think previously short-term-renting owners will now gravitate heavily towards long term leases, thus bloating supply of properties in the long term rental market? Will that depress sales prices for places that are mainly well suited to short term rentals?

I’m interested.
