I am a Realtor and own a Property Management company. I have seen a huge increase in the rental market, (as high as 30% increase in rent, year-over-year), due to the high demand (people can't afford to buy) and low inventory. Affordable housing is non-existent in Hawaii. I feel bad for the younger generation, who have no choice but to live with their families or live in a multi-generational living scenario. In Hawaii renters are accustomed to this and the high cost of living. Many people have left Hawaii, the No. 1 most expensive state to live in. Instead of helping out the locals, our congressmen and Senators have made the situation far worse for our Residents. Another problem Hi has is that our state is very corrupt, we have gov. officials with zero accountability, who only care about "climate change", social injustice and gender identity! Really? Does anyone care about this when you don't have a roof over your head, or are unable to feed your family?  Why is our homeless population increasing?
