Wayne and Polly,
I’ve also been trying to decide which would be better – pier and post or slab. Most of the homes folks are building in our area – very close to Kurtistown on the mauka side of Highway 11 – are on a slab. I think the reason is more due to economics and the ground being able to support a slab without extensive prep work.
Oh well! We won’t be able to start building for another 2½ years, so we have time to decide.
Good Luck!
