For the record zoning in Hawaii (the island of) is still insane but it does allow for vacation rentals and regular tenants.

This house is a foreclosure, offered for cash only and we suspect the reason why is even though it's listed as a 3 bedroom, when we walked through it there is a 4th bedroom that is what I would consider the master as it's the largest.

In that case I would look for the largest building you could get for around 350k that in good shape and does not have a ton of deferred maintenance.

(For California)No, I'm not a ripoff lender, but I am the Education Chair for the largest (well, for that matter, the only) statewide trade association (in Calif.) for hard money lenders.

Part of that price is land and part is improvements.

For things like an island, the per linear foot price would be more.Call WilsonArt and ask what they charge for post-form countertops (meaning already molded and cut to your specifications).

His second home is on one of the smaller islands away from Manila.

I just spoke to an agent of one of the largest bidders in MD.

Buying an Index Fund of the S&P 500 (500 largest companies, so not likely to all go bankrupt) and never sell, but have methodical buying leads you to buy more at the bottom.

My largest expense is water and sewer through the town, I never seem to see tenants paying for that in Ma.
