Kathy H,
The poster was asking about houses in Puna, not Kohala or Kona, so what you saw when your son was looking on the west side is completely beside the point.
HPP is not unique in this, it was just the example I used because the OP asked about HPP. Ainaloa, Nanawale, Orchidland, Leilani, and the Hawaiian Beaches/Shores/Shores Recreations Estates subdivisions all show the same trend: nice homes dirt cheap, including homes that are not short sales/REOs, but are owned by people who have to get out now, and whose prices are being forced down by all the discounted inventory on the market. This is a good time for young families to buy, if they have the credit to do so, home prices are finally in line with wages again.
