Aloha,
I am a graduate of UHH and always loved the big Island but life drifted me away all the way to New York City and I am trying to steer back home.
I will be on the Big Island from August 22-30 to look and buy land in the Puna District before the price becomes totally unaffordable, hopefully someday build a home and move there.
However, I am not sure where to buy. For example, why would one purchase land in Fern Acres rather than Orchid land or Fern Forest? (Besides the fact it’s cooler on higher elevation)
How cold does it get on Fern Forest? Are most of you farming? Our current thinking is that Orchid land is the best bet since it is on lower elevation and therefore warmer climate.
If anyone has a bed and breakfast on Fern Acres I would like to spend a few nights there to get a feel of the place. Any advise/suggestions on how to select a piece of land, deal with real estate brokers, things to look for and lookout for is gratefully appreciated.
Mahalo,
Ajit
