If you're thinking about living in Hawai'i,

you can get the inside scoop right here!

The first and possibly most significant item that pertains to living an affordable life in Hawai'i is that the only place we find this to be a possiblitiy is on the Big Island,or the Island of Hawai'i. This book does not address life on Oahu, Maui, or Kaui, any more than a book on an affordable life in California would include San Francisco or Beverly Hills. The Big Island is a spectacular place in every way, and is the "Healing Island" to many. The Big Island still offers some essences of the real Hawai'i, and that has been largely lost on the more touristed Islands. The Big Island offers awesome examples of every kind of tropical environment available anywhere in Hawai'i.

 

Are there really homes in Hawai'i for under $200,000? Yes!   "Affordable Paradise" dispels the myth that it is terribly expensive to live in Hawai'i. You'll learn why all those "statistics" about housing prices and the cost of living do not apply to those who are serious about affordable living. You'll learn the secrets of making the most of every dollar -- and that does work differently here than on the mainland.   Home prices climbed a lot just preceeding 2006, then they leveled off in 2008, and now with the current economic conditions of the counrty, prices are back to where they were ten years ago. There are numerous very livable homes listed for sale right now for under $200,000, some for a lot less, and for not much more than that, some very nice ones.   Used to be you couldn't touch a home in Hilo for under $300,000. Not any more. It's a buyer's market now.   There are also still many vacant residential lots for under $50,000, and it costs less to build a house here than in many places on the mainland.   Can I afford to live in Hawai'i? Yes!!   The focus of "Affordable Paradise" is YOUR LIFE on the Big Island, a place of awesome beauty and incredible variety. The Windward Side especially graciously embraces the essence of Hawai'i: the lush, tropical ambiance; the gentle and easy pace of life; friendly people of many cultures; the perfect weather; the warm, crystal-clear, friendly ocean; and the sparkling clean air.   There's lots of work available in Hawai'i? Yes!   Hawaii has not seen anywhere near the job-loss issues of the mainland. Hiring has slowed, for sure, but there is still lots of work available. The notion of there being no work available in Hawai'i is a myth!   Income opportunities abound in Hawai'i? Yes!   But before you jump in to start looking for that new home, please understand that "Affordable Paradise" is not an effort to sell Hawai'i to the masses. It is as much to discourage those who would not be at ease here as it is to encourage those to whom Hawai'i could forever be their home. Hawai'i has an ininerate population because so many people come here with stars in their eyes and realize too late that they made a huge and costly error. Now you'll have all the information that will let you make sure this is what you really want to do. Along that line . . .   And maybe most importantly of all, would you like to know why Hawai'i is so NOT everyone's Paradise?   The author strives to present both sides of the picture. You will not hear that Hawai'i is everyone's Paradise, because clearly, it is not. But for those who are at peace here and who yearn from their hearts and souls to live here, here are the proven ways to make it possible and affordable.sale on H

You can live a gracious and rewarding life in Hawai'i on a modest income, and you're about to discover how.a

ii book.

The thousands of people who are now relocating to Hawai'i in general and to the Big Island in particular need to assume the responsibility of learning how to "live aloha." It is unreasonable to assume it possible to change the demographic of an isolated culture like Hawaii without changing the culture itself. The Third Edition places a lot of emphasis on this issue. Newcomers need to realize that if the sweet ambiance of Hawai'i is to be kept alive, it is very much up to them to do their part. It is absolutely essential to leave those mainland ways behind and to activley adopt this new culture with open arms and a glad heart.

A disclaimer! The focus of this book is affordable living in Hawai'i. To that end, it is about life on the Big Island, the Island of Hawai'i. We do not propose to be offering any secrets about an affordable life in Honolulu or Lahaina. That's just not going to happen! But for those folks who seriously desire to live in Hawai'i but who are also not rich, we have the secrets! The fact that the Big Island in general and the Windward Side in particular are now the fastest growing areas of the State is good evidence that we are, as they say, being discovered. Opportunities abound, but time is of the essence.
