Buying Land & Building

Buying land and building a home here comes with unique considerations. Land use, zoning, permitting, and construction regulations are distinct and require expertise. That's why it's crucial to partner with a local Realtor who possesses the experience and knowledge to successfully guide you through the process.

Setting realistic expectations is key. Hawaii is known for its beauty, but it also comes with a higher cost of living. Building a home is no exception. Consider a budget that accounts for building materials, labor, and land size. Understanding these factors will help you align your expectations with the available resources.

Building a home in Hawaii takes patience. The process can be lengthy, especially if financing is involved. Permits, contractors, and building materials require careful organization and management. Keep in mind that our island's limited resources can contribute to potential delays. On average, it can take anywhere from 18 to 24 months, sometimes longer, to build a home on Hawaii Island.
