Post: Aloha BP! Hawaii - Japan RE Investor

Greetings Everyone!

Kiley here.  I am new to the BP site but have been a hard-core podcast listener since discovering these amazing shows.  Unbelievable gold mine!  I couldn't get enough and have bought and read a couple of the BP books as well.

I was born and raised in Hawaii where the weather is nice and the land is limited.  I spent 7 years in Fukuoka, Japan after college.  Got married up there and moved back to Hawaii in 2012.  I currently work at a large (for Hawaii) local bank.  My wife and I bought our first condo when we realized that rents were higher than what our mortgage payment would be (2013).  Fast forward to today and both prices and rents in our market have continued  to rise annually.  

We are now looking to invest in the Japanese real estate market.

I would love to meet up and talk real estate with anyone living in, or visiting Hawaii.  Also, if any BPers are living and/or investing in Japan I'd love to hear your stories as well.  

Of course, I am also very much looking forward to meeting everyone in the forums.  

Fantastic to meet all of you!
