This Sharing Interest was created by Admin for James before James became a SharableThings user. (For a current listing by James, from which you can send an email to him regarding this Kona Island vacation property sharing interest, see http://www.sharablethings.com/interests/40.)

We are interested in shared rental or shared ownership of a small (about 750 square feet) vacation property (condo or cottage) located in Kona (or within 5 miles of Kona) on the Big Island of Hawaii.

We would like to use this vacation property for one month (January or February) a year and are willing to pay about $2,000 USD for that month of use or to pay the same amount annually towards the purchase and mortgage.

We are ready to start immediately.

We are willing to share rental or ownership with quite a number of people. An advantage of buying or getting a long term rental is that the price is much less than for short term rental. We have rented frequently in Kona and believe that $2,000 USD a month will get us something appropriate.

We are a Vancouver couple with a very tiny dog.

The accompanying photo is apparently of a Kona condominium development where there is a 700 square foot condo unit. Just what we have in mind!

Proposed number of sharing parties: 5-10, to co-own a small fleet of surfboards, stored in the Honolulu area, for use when holidaying on Oahu. Ideally, a local resident would be willing to participate as fleet manager on a reduced cost basis. Total estimated purchase price: X. Estimated purchase price per sharing party: X/10-X/5. Total estimated annual cost of ownership: Y. Estimated annual cost per sharing party: Y/10-Y/5. Will revise with estimate of costs asap. Invite suggestions from prospective sharing parties knowledgeable about Oahu board prices.
