ATTENTION: ALL HAWAII BOUND SOLDIERS, SAILORS, AIRMEN AND MARINES!
By: 1SG (Ret) David and Tonya Kucic, Hawaii Real Estate Agents
If there was ever a time in your military career to purchase real estate, the time is now. First of all, the BAH rates for Hawaii are at an all time high. You may have already done your research on Hawaii BAH Rates but here are a few examples: E1-E4 with dependents receives $1925 per month, E7 with dependents receives $2553 per month, 1LT without dependents receives $1815 per month and a CPT with dependents receives $2797 per month. Add in COLA and you are looking at a great way to put together an investment in real estate.
I mentioned that this is a great opportunity for you to purchase real estate in Hawaii. There are two more reasons besides the BAH and COLA looking very good but the interest rates are low (5.75% for a VA 30 year fixed) and we are deep into a "BUYERS MARKET". The fact that you have VA loan eligibility puts you in a great position to purchase real estate in Hawaii. Your VA loan eligibility will allow you to purchase a property with ZERO or very little out of pocket expenses. Ask me how I have put many Service members into homes with no cost to them!
Whether you will be stationed at Schofield Barracks, Pearl Harbor, Hickam Air Force Base, Marine Corps Base Kaneohe, Camp H. M. Smith, Tripler Army Medical Center, Fort Shafter or Coast Guard Station Honolulu or Barbers Point, I can help you find a home. You can search the Hawaii MLS on my website at http://www.hawaiipcs.com/. It is free and you don't have to give any information to conduct your search.
If you are here on a 3 year assignment and you choose to rent or stay in government quarters, this is what you would be giving away over that 3 year period. I will use the same ranks as I did in the first paragraph. E1-E4 $69,300; E7 with dependents $91,908; 1LT without dependents $65,340 and finally a CPT with dependents $100,692.
You also must realize that your mortgage payment will stay the same for 30 years. If you purchase real estate when you get here then each year when you get a BAH raise, the additional money will be put in your pocket.
