Would any one know a recommendation for a real estate attorney on the island of Oahu ?

Hi @Scott Galloway, Vancouver Island is providing excellent $on$ (i like that) returns.The market has had home price increases over the last 2 years, so they are getting tougher to find, but they are still possible to find at this time.
