Kamehame Ridge – Oahu – East Honolulu

2 years ago

by Frank in Hawaii-Kai-Homes

Between Hahaione Valley to the east and Kalama Valley is Kamehame Ridge. It travels high behind Hawaii Kai, near Koko Head and Koko Crater then drops quickly into Kalama Valley.The area is overgrown with California grass, kiawe, and koa haole. Rainfall is generally light, averaging 30–50 in. per year. It is located near the Waimanalo Ridge in East Honolulu.

Kamilo Nui and Kamilo Iki are the areas adjacent to Hawaii Kai Drive, as you travel up Lunalilo Home Road, near the skate park. On the water’s edge at the end of Lunalilo Home Road is Portlock. The schools of the Kaiser school complex include Hahaione Elementary School, Kamiloiki Elementary School, Koko Head Elementary School, Niu Valley Middle School, and Kaiser High School.

Koko Head Terrace as you can guess is on the slope of Koko Crater on the back side of it, toward the Hawaii Kai Golf Course, you will find the Koko Head Botanical Garden. A two-mile loop trail leads visitors through a variety of dryland plant collections from Hawaii and around the world. Koko Crater consists of a large crater that has a strenuous 2-hour hike. The Queen’s Gate gated community is across the street from the garden. Koko Head Crater overlooks Makapu’u, Diamond Head, The Marina, Sandy Beach, and Hanauma Bay. Koko Head is the elevated, longer, flatter piece of land that extends into Maunalua Bay.

Nearby parks include Bellows Field Beach Park, Kaiona Beach Park , Kalama Valley Park , Kamilo Iki Neighborhood Park , Kaupö Beach Park , Waimanalo Bay Beach Park, Waimanalo Beach Park, Sea Life Park , Makapu’u Beach Park , Makapu’u Point State Wayside , Mänana Island State Seabird Sanctuary , Käohikaipu Island State Seabird Sanctuary and Koko Crater Botanical Garden.

Nearby communities include Anchorage, Hahaione Valley, Kalama Valley, Kamehame Ridge, Kamilo Heights, Kamiloiki Estates, Kamilonui 1 Subdivision, Kealaula Kai, Koko Head Terrace, Koko Kai Triangle, Koko Kai/Portlock, Koko Villas Subdivision, Laulima, Lunalilo Home Subdivision, Lunalilo Marina, Lunalilo Terrace, Mariners Cove, Mariners Ridge, Mariners Valley, Queen’s Gate, and West Marina.

As you can see, Hawaii Kai has a lot to offer. Shopping at Koko Marina, Hawaii Kai Towne Center, Costco, Safeway, Longs, Ross and more. Great restaurants such as Harbor Village, Blue Water Grill, The Shack, and my favorite, Kona Brewing. If you are looking for a Hawaii home, give me a call.

Hawaii Loa Ridge Homes in Honolulu

Hawaii Loa Ridge Homes – Honolulu

Here is a map of the Kuliouou / Hawaii Loa Ridge. As you can see, the Kuliouou Ridge Hike starts off of Kuliouou Road, whereas the Hawaii Loa Ridge hike starts on Puuikena Drive

Nearby communities are Wailupe, Waialai Iki, Kalana Iki, Aina Haina, Kahala, Kuliouou, Niu Valley, Paiko Lagoon, Waialae Nui Lower, Diamond Head and Kaimuki.

From Kalanianaole Hwy, turn onto Puuikena Drive (across from Kawaikui Beach Park). Tell the guard that you are a Hawaii resident and hiking the ridge. He will check your driver’s license (sometimes registration, and insurance) before letting you in. Proceed to the very end of the road and park at the trailhead.

In this area you will find “high end” Hawaii homes, located on, Ikena Circle, Kaialii Place, Kaulana Place, Kokololio Place, Lelekepue Place, Maono Loop, Maono Place, Moaniala Streeg, Puuikena Drive and Puuikena Place.

This community was named after Hawaii Loa, traditional discoverer of the land. It is also a form of Hawaiki, the traditional home of the Polynesians. A couple of theories exist on the origin of the name Hawaii. One theory has it that the name comes from a combination of the words “Hawa” and “ii” and means a small or new homeland; “Hawa” meaning a traditionl homeland and “ii” meaning small and raging. The other theory is that the name comes from the traditional discoverer of the islands, Hawaii Loa.

Although living in Hawaii may temporarily take you away from the mainland, many homeowners find these beautiful islands and natural beauty well-worth the trouble of moving here.

- Is it legal for a seller to accept cash and subtract the amount from reported house price?
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: Nico, That's why everything should go through escrow. There are possibly things going on behind the scenes that you don't know about. What if they seller leaves and moves to Mexico or The Bahamas with your money. NOT a good idea. If I did this, I would be fired and possible lose my real estate license. Frank Diaz (RA) […]
- I never had credit and I got no credit history. I won a law suit and want to by a house. I have good income but just got a credit card i pay 1400 rent
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: Aloha Catina, I would talk to your bank and/or credit union and a mortgage lender or broker (I can recommend a few if you like). It's a good idea to talk to 2 or 3 different people to get an opinion on your situation and possible loan terms. It can vary according to state, type of property and even by complex or neighborho […]
- How does "fractional ownership" work? Is it merely sharing a property? Whose name is on the title? Do you actually own part or all?
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: A few references for you: http://www.trulia.com/voices/Home_Buying/What_is_the_pros_and_cons_of_fractional_ownership_-264429 http://www.trulia.com/voices/Property_QandA/whats_this_day_fractional_ownership_do_we_own_the-85571 […]
- How does "fractional ownership" work? Is it merely sharing a property? Whose name is on the title? Do you actually own part or all?
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: Hi Dede, The reason all sites don't have the same info, is because of the fields that can pick up from the original listing and display. Either part of the land is available for use, or all of the land is available for use some of the time. It is shown as fractional on Realtor.com http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes- […]
- Will any agent or broker list my property for a 6% commission and split it with other brokers 1% and 5% and keep 1% for themselves?
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: Possible, yes? Likely, no? The amount of work involved with finding a seller, researching the correct price, agreeing on a price, and listing a home is only part of it. Working with agents, buyers, reviewing offers, following up with the agents, escrow companies, etc. is a lot of work. In some cases, if you are buying a home af […]

- How hard is it to purchase a second home (coop or condo) if I plan on renting the first home to a family member?
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: Melou, It sounds like you want to rent out the entire residence to a third party. The third party (family member) is paying most of the mortgage. I don't know if they are on the loan or not. Again, you have to show that the income is documented and talk to a lender. Your bank loan officer or credit union loan officer shoul […]
- How hard is it to purchase a second home (coop or condo) if I plan on renting the first home to a family member?
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: Yes, you can. Check with your lender or mortgage broker on how to document the income, including deposits and the lease itself. Good luck on the new purchase! Frank Diaz (RA) MBA, e-PRO, REALTOR® East Oahu Realty 808.723.0900 cell […]

- How would I find out which realtor has the most sales and quickest closings in the past 6 months in the Steele Creek Area?
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: I agree with Ron and Dave. Faster and more is not better. Some companies have several people in a team, that crank out a dozen sales a month. It does not necessarily mean better service. Sometimes owners want to try a slightly higher price (against an agent's advice) and the listing takes longer to sell. Or, they just don […]
- Question removed
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: Me, We (where I live) typically change the status of the listing 4 days after all inspections are completed and disclosures have been signed. That normally only leaves a few contingencies....financing, and a survey. Good luck! […]

- Question removed
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: If is was auctioned, why is the previous owner still there? If the previous owner has a legal right to be there, then the answer is no. That would be trespassing. How would they even get in? Need more info to know what is going on with this foreclosure / auction. Frank Diaz (RA) MBA, e-PRO, REALTOR® East Oahu Realty […]
- Question removed
  Answer by Frank Diaz, MBA, RA: Why would there be a void of contract? If it was voided, it would cancel your purchase. You're buying it? Then the contract is still in process, until it closes and is recorded by the title company. If I were the seller I would continue taking back up offers until it closes. If your financing falls through, or some other i […]
