A couple lives in a rental. Waikiki.
Our rent is going up again next year.
Our salaries will all go to rent.

We are talking about buying a condo next year.

I also live in the Moiliili area as a renter and the metro area has gone up dramatically in the last year. I also had a one-sided price increase of $ $400 this year.
The prices keep going up and up without knowing the ceiling, and the owners are trying hard to get on the bandwagon without regard to the situation of the residents. The market is now so overwhelmingly strong that demand is outstripping supply, and from the owner's point of view, "even if we raise the price, there are plenty of alternatives".
If the Democrats win the election, there will be a $ 25,000 down payment subsidy for first-time buyers as a campaign pledge. I think it would be a good idea to purchase a house with this system.

Hi !
If you plan to live in Hawaii for a long time and work together, you should buy.
I have lived in Hawaii for a long time and I am buying.

Everyone has a different budget, savings, family size, and work location
I can't say where, but if you choose a location and a popular condo
you won't lose money.
If you are not looking to invest, live in Hawaii for a long time, and have never bought a
property in Hawaii, there may be a
chance to buy a new Affordable Condo, so please consult with a real estate agent.

Can Hawaii claim alimony from spouse and adulterer ??

Question

My friend's husband suddenly asked her for a divorce
, and not knowing the Hawaiian law and system, she signed the papers half-intimidated by the other party and soon after found out that the other party was having an affair. If I have already filed the divorce papers without demanding anything, will I have no choice but to cry myself to sleep?

Kinder & Elemental's Afterschool Program

Problem / Need advice

  • 2024/11/11 09:58

I am gathering information on a kinder to be enrolled in next year. The location will be in Town.

The afterschool program is offered by the YMCA or the A + program by Kama'aina Kids, depending on the school, is there any difference in which program is better, etc. ?

Most of the town's A + seems to be waitlisted at popular schools, is it difficult to get in from Kinder ? since there seems to be a waiting list, will I be able to get in by the time I get to Grade 1 if I keep getting on the waitlist?

If I can't get into A +, I would like to be able to take part in the paid art and dance programs at the school, but I wonder if this is also difficult since there are so many participants compared to the capacity ?

I have parents who both work. I would like to know how you manage to pick up your children and work if you cannot get into A + ( if you have no relatives who can support you ). A + .


Schools I am considering are Liholiho, Ali'olani, Hokulani, Waialae, Wilson, Aina Haina, Waikiki, etc in GE.
Best regards.

The inside of the refrigerator is flooded
The water runs down to the floor.

It makes a noise and moves forward.

Hello.
Have you tried calling the respective manufacturer ?

If the cost of repair and buying a new one is not much different,
you should assume that it has reached the end of its life and throw it away.
If it is too old, it is because they no longer manufacture that part
and it takes time and money to find it, and I have been urged to replace it.

Dear Lion king
Thanks for the advice.
I contacted the place mentioned on KZOO radio, but they said they don't do repairs, so I posted this on Vivinavi.

The refrigerator and washing machine were purchased 5 or 6 years ago
The Ceiling fan was purchased about 3 years ago.
I thought it was too short a life span.

Later dental insurance exclusions

A few months after I was treated by a dentist, I was told that my insurance company was reluctant to pay out and that I might not be covered.
Is it common in Hawaii to get treatment because it was explained to me that it was covered by insurance and that was the price, but then be charged later ?
I can only assume that the doctor is immature.

Take your dog to Japan

I am taking my dog to Japan for a 4 week long vacation this time. All the paperwork and inspections are done, but I have a question here. I've already done all the paperwork and tests, but I have a question: how much did it cost to take my dog to Japan? > Blood test $ 460
Pre-departure medical examination $ 450

With this blood test and medical examination $ it cost me less than 900 ?

Is this normal?
By the way, the veterinary clinic I went to was Aina Haina Vet Clinic.
Thank you very much.

Question

  • 2024/10/18 20:30

I recently moved in with my American husband's 86 year old mother.
I have a feeling that she is suffering from dementia.
I am concerned that this may become a problem in the future, and I am wondering if I will be able to leave my mother-in-law alone when I return to Japan with my husband.

Please let me know if you know anything about this.
① How can we get someone to come and cook and clean as senior care ?
② ① is there anything covered by pensioner's health insurance ?
③ If the dementia is severe, there is a possibility of moving into an institution. is possible, where should I ask for such information ?

If you don't mind, please let me know. Thank you very much.

Do you have any recommendations for a new teacher who is currently receiving psychological counseling in Hawaii ? I would prefer a Japanese-speaking teacher, but if it is difficult, an English-speaking teacher would be fine.

I have a lot of anxiety in my life and I have to do a lot of checking in my daily life.
Was your insurance covered ( We are HMSA ) and we would be happy to hear about your experience with fees.

Also, I have lived in Hawaii for almost 10 years now and have little trouble making a living, but with the rising cost of living, I am very concerned about my vague future and not being financially independent. But now I have a small child and working full time is difficult ・ ・. Even a few years after childbirth, I somehow don't feel better all the time.

I have few friends and no one to talk to about my true feelings.
If you have experienced anxiety like mine, I would appreciate it if you could share how you overcame it.

I am sorry. I was just curious and had to write.
If you have high anxiety, are you eating too much sweet food ? I heard that too much instant food, sweet bread, and sugar can cause depression. They say it has physical effects.
For your information.
