New to Puna forums looking at possibly buying land
#21
Yeah kind of figure a difference in prices due to what is desirable and in a good area. I also see the lots for low 50k tend to get delisted quickly (from being bought I would think), I wouldnt even think about buying anything until I see it in person and do some further investigation. I cant imagine people buying land without taking a look at it, I heard on a previous post speculators were doing just that. Like the old saying goes you get what you pay for! Thank you for your replies and I will be looking foward to this.

It actually gets even better! There is a "Private Remarks" section in MLS, accessable only to subscribers. Here is the rest:
"Private: Past end of paved road makai of Royal Gardens subdivision. Buyer to research building codes and lava zoning as well as any other relevant information necessary to build."

What I like best with Royal Garden properties is when it says: "Only accessable with motocross bikes, ATV's or helicopter."
Hey guys, bust out your helicopters.
If I would be able to afford one, I would probably not buy a 7500sqft piece of lava.
But maybe that's just me.

Perhaps for those of us looking to buy land, the following links would offer some interesting information.

Found this on a kw article about future plans for the Waimea area, but had many
interesting links to issues in the Puna area. Perhaps others would like to peruse this also.

Hawaii County information regarding the Puna area

Waimea plan that leads to the above links
http://www.waimeaplan.org/resources/links/index.html

Lots of information and needs some time to study.

John, perfect response!!

Last night I had dinner with a couple of people who are newbies and they said will it ever stop raining??? I asked ever so innocently..."You do know most of the Hilo side is a RAINforest??" and the crime is a small percentage of the crime in Cali.
