    Wife and I have visited the islands many times......Maui, and Oahu the most. From So Cal. Kailua is a place we visited many times for the last 30 years. It has changed. It's still nice but the building up is inevitable. Already too crowded. And some people do not respect the land. Good video...keep Kailua from getting too overwhelmed. Mahalo.

      It's like that everywhere. Wherever rich people want to live, they will live,and it pushes everyone else out due to high real estate prices as a result of the land being desirable and valuable. The entire world is like that, it just Hawaii. Any place that is beautiful and especially coastal areas are off the charts expensive. That is just life unfortunately.

    • @TheMorganMonroeShow

      This isn’t about where every rich person lives, this is about real estate prices being driven through the roof. Everywhere the Democrats go, they do this. Look at every single democratic city. They all progress super fast and then deteriorate just as fast. This will end up being another Waikiki stuffed full of crime. It’s just how the Democratic Party works. The proof is in the pudding. Look at every single place they rule. I would say, this is not about politics. But this is about politics lol.

      Has to be over 3 million at a minimum. My parents bought a house in the 80's and then sold it for about seven times its price in 2021. It's nice they made so much, but they actually said they would've preferred it if everything was just normally priced, and you could both sell and buy at affordable prices.

      Obama actually rebuilt a new seawall and extended his property out onto the public beach… funny how he was allowed to do that, especially since there’s an old Hawaiian turtle pond fronting his property that’s SUPPOSED to be a protected conservation area and his seawall is blocking freshwater from reaching the beach, which is needed for limu to grow, which is what the turtles eat.
