You received a wonderful gift! It is the gift of receiving orders to your new duty station and you're moving to paradise! Hawaii, with its tropical breezes, blue sunny skies, breathtaking scenery and warm weather year round IS all you dreamed of...and more. What's more of a dream than working and living in paradise?
You're an Active Duty, Retired or Veteran of the Armed Forces and you are Relocating to Hawaii. It's not easy picking up and moving to another state let alone across the Pacific Ocean but you sure can do it with ease when you have a sponsor who is willing to go the extra mile to get you acquainted with your new base and in processing information and needs, right?
There's another criteria for you that you need to keep in mind. Yeah, you have those sponsors but you are also looking at purchasing a home while you are here. So often we listen to friends, family and ‘acquaintances' who do not know the Hawaii Home Buying Process or Hawaii Real Estate Laws and though they may mean well, they are not really the experts.
You need the professional guidance of an experienced Realtor® who will give you sound advice regarding the local Hawaii housing market, your VA Guaranteed Loan for a Hawaii Home Purchase and the areas near the Honolulu County Military Bases that you may be interested in.
Education, Information and a Good Realtor® IS The Art of Hawaii Relocations.
