Hi,

I'm also a beginning investor living in Honolulu.  I'm currently in escrow now on a primary residence condo in town.  Let's get coffee sometime as I'd love to chat about RE! PM me your email.

@Kahanu Noa What are the specifics on why the home equity loan is better than the HELOC from PenFed? I'm also trying to decide which route to take.

@Kahanu Noa

I'm thinking of doing something similar for my property in CA. One option that I looked at but haven't pursued yet is Bank of the West. They have a non-owner occupied HELOC option. Did you inquire with PenFed yet?

Congrats on getting it rented @Sarah Lam!  Who did you go with for your contractor and property management?

I live in Honolulu. We are in the process of buying a primary residence condo here, but I'm looking to get another condo in the future, as that all that I can afford. @Tyler O.

@Jasmine C. Where are you investing out of state? I was looking in the Midwest, possibly Kansas city, but not sure yet. 

@Rasheema Abduls-Salaam yes, definitely!  What is your email address? 

Yea, it's tough in Honolulu to find cash flow.  I'm probably going to try to get a small condo here to live in as my primary, just so that I can stop renting and build equity.  Simultaneously, I would like to invest in a cash flow property out of state to offset my costs locally.  

@Johnny Aloha I'm also interested in referrals for handyman/contractor guys.  If you don't mind, could you please PM me?  Thanks!
