Timeframe Expectations For Ground Up Construction In Kapolei

[Matthew Bernal]

Aloha, fellow investors! 

A colleague and I are doing our due diligence and strategic prep for a ground-up project in Kapolei. The project will be both horizontal and vertical. How much time should we expect to get entitled and permitted? A year? Two? 

Our current expectation is 24 months: 12 to get approved and permitted and 12 to build. Thoughts?

Hi there Matthew, it depends where and what you are doing.  Campbell Estates dba 'City of Kapolei' has total control over the 'core' of Kapolei, and would be a great place to start for due dilligence.  DPP is easily the largest headwind, but there would be quite a bit of prep work in advance before even getting to DPP.  Depending on your resources, 24 months is a bit optimistic.  PM me, I'd love to chat about it and provide my insights.  I'm the president of the Mehana community  which is located here in the core of Kapolei, and have several strategic relationships with Campbell Estates if that may be helpful.  Would be glad to give you some insights with some more specifics.
