Someone told me I could use a "permit runner" service to get the permits pulled. 

I got an email for my tenant regarding my carpet runner on the stairs.

Please feel free to reach out to myself if you need a runner on Oahu and I have family in Kauai Mike and plan on investing in Lihue, myself so feel free to reach out.
