I have been to Oahu three times in the last two months for a client. I can’t tell you that rental market appears to be hurting first hand but the economy is not in good shape over there. I have talked with many homeowners/business owners at the airport that were traveling there to deal with foreclosures of homes they could not find renters on Oahu and Maui. While eating at my favorite local vegan/raw food place/store (Down to Earth) I was looking at the local paper for rentals and the paper was full of 1 beds and 2 bedrooms for 1600 – 1800 a month. Recently last Friday local fish markets Uncles over at pier 38 are closing around 3pm now with signs in the windows that make reference to the economy being the main reason. We ate at a couple nice places and the parking lots and restaurants were very empty. I was assuming it is because of the season but the local news says tourist spending is down 20 percent compared to last year.

November 4, 2008 at 4:37 PM #298648DWCAPParticipantI have noticed a few places lowering rents alittle in the areas I watch here in SD. Nothing really great, and certainly not on the nicer places, but A few. I have a feeling the rental market is kinda like the stock market right now. All over the place on a whim.

Those are huge numbers for around here. Tells me the rental market is still plenty strong. I expected he’d rent it closer to 2,300.
