Common questions

Is it cheaper to buy a house or remodel in Hawaii?

What is the 30% rule for renovations?

The 30% rule suggests that major renovations should not exceed 30% of a home's value. While a useful guideline, its application in Hawaii's unique real estate market, particularly in Honolulu, may require a more nuanced approach based on market trends and individual goals. Consult with us for personalized advice.

What is the difference between remodeling and renovating a house?

Renovating restores a home to its former glory or good condition, while remodeling changes its layout or purpose. For instance, updating the kitchen in your Urban Honolulu home is renovating, but expanding it into an adjacent room is remodeling. We excel at both.
