Aloha BP Community,

Hi my name is Kevin and I am relatively new to real estate investing here on Oahu. Oahu has been my home most of my life and the one thing I can say to describe this market is that it is EXPENSIVE but can be rewarding. Currently I own a small condo (personal residence) and was fortunate enough to recently complete the purchase of a 5 unit property with a couple of partners. We renovated it, refinanced it and I am now learning to property manage this property!  In addition to beginning to invest, I am an architectural contractor and recently completed the real estate licensing exam here in Hawaii.

I look forward to meeting and getting to know other investors in my area and throughout the greater BP community!

Mahalo (Thank you) in advance for all your great knowledge and advice!

Kevin

Aloha from Hawaii Kai, @Kevin Murakami!

Welcome to BP, and congrats on your deal. You're already past the hardest part... getting started! You're gonna love investing here.

From town, to Mililani, to Wailua, to Waianae, I've got 6 flips in progress at the moment. Its very do-able. Go out and get it, Kevin!

Seize the day...
~Michael
