Thanks for all the good advice.
I see some spaghetti lots without (current) neighbors in the 16k range, and some square lots ~ 22k. Not looking near Pahoa, but I am curious how that will affect things. Perhaps prices will go up in upper Puna, and down southeast of Pahoa, if that area gets cut off (or at least enough to cause more massive traffic jams than usual).
I'm hoping to go DIY on a lot of the improvements, given enough manpower. Minimal clearing, make our own composting toilets, home made solar water heaters, just enough solar and batteries to run a rigged up chest-freezer-fridge, lights, lte+wifi, and recharging outlets for laptops and cellphones. Propane grill and clothes washer.
Kinda like Thoreau, I want to get down to the simplest living possible, and then see what I truly miss. :-)
