There is a bird behind the dudes head doing weird things.
Talking about jobs, I live in the heart of Bay Area one exit away from my office and yet I go into work maybe twice a month. I own a house in Kona and could easily work remotely full time from there. The main reason I don’t do that is because the schools and extra curricular opportunities there for my kids is not even close to what we have here. But I will certainly move to Kona once my kids move out.
Until then I don’t want my house to be a dead investment though and that brings to my next point that you didn’t cover. The house that I have there is paying for itself by renting it out short term. The returns for STRs in the west side is one of the best in the country! There are very few properties with permits on the east side, the property management that operate there are not very sophisticated, it’s harder to find contractors etc. So even though the properties are cheaper, they are not necessarily a better investment.
This conversation is brilliant! Honest. Detailed. Realistic. So valuable and you three seem very nice, fun, and happy there. I’m thinking of retiring there so when the time comes I’ll be contacting you! Thanks!
