    Aloha Cole, 


    That is the end goal when I have some experience and capital to my name. I recently joined a mentorship with investors from Hawaii who are also investing in the MO area.

    Hi Janessa! I'd love to connect with you. I'm an agent here in KC, I can set you up with local contractors, property managers, and lenders. KC is a great place to be and you're looking to invest at the right time. Things will be drastically changing here in the next 5-10 years.

    Turnkey rentals on the mainland don't hit 1% RV anymore so might as well bleed cf in Hawaii.

    @Lane Kawaoka Aloha Lane, mahalo for your input, appreciate it. Luckily Kansas City, MO is still renting at that 1%, sometimes even 1.2% margin☺️

    Prices are high and with Hawaii STR taxes it's a lot tougher than first glance. Definitely doable though. A lot of people are hesitant after Maui just signed bill to phase out 7,000 of the STR units over the next 2 years. A lot of owners already panic selling at discounted prices / price cuts. Will be interesting to see how it shakes out.

     Aloha @Janessa Rivera Keahi and Kyle, if you're on Maui we host a meetup every first Saturday of the month in Kihei.  There's one coming up this weekend if you're in town.  You should come out!  It'll be at South Maui Gardens at 8am, you'll see a bunch of us down there. It's free, and there's no sales pitches, just investors talking story.  All are welcome.  Aloha!
