Just out of curiosity
« on: January 17, 2021, 08:38:41 PM »
Hi everyone!

I was wondering what it might cost to buy and maintain a tropical farm in Hawai'i? I saw some people doing them on YouTube, and my curiosity was piqued. I am extremely unlikely to buy one anytime soon, and I'm just curious.

Thank you!

Check on Craigslist. You don't even have to select Hawaii, just search Santa Clara or Santa Cruz counties because there are listings from Hawaii, Nevada, Montana, and other places.

I just looked, and what I saw isn't on there right now. It was something like 3 acres with a one bedroom/bath for $200,000 or less (I don't remember the price, it seemed unbelievably low compared to California prices) in Volcano something. Not sure what island. It was on the southeast side near the coast.

Hi all
Why you don't think that Puerto Rico could be a better
choice?

I know, when you win the lottery.  (Sounds like "lottery dreams" to me!)

some land you buy you have to have a agriculture  license to buy
some of the land is not expensive  at least when I looked out of curiosity
I guess unless the land had unknown leans

I know the cost of living for food is high but if you grew your own
I an not sure of the taxes  after building a house on the property  though .

Not sure if this is where you might find a agriculture license.

I would, if it weren’t for those (dang) hurricanes...
