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!

Wanted to share, a condominium, townhouse, cottage, or small house in a warm climate in the Northern Hemisphere's winter on or near the ocean. Two bedrooms. 1500+ square feet. In very good condition. Willing to share with one or two other couples. We would want the use of it for some of the months of October-March. For our share, willing to pay approximately $200,000, so total cost could be $400,000-$600,000. Willing to see it rented out to others when the owners did not want to use it. No urgency. Preferably to start by 2014. We live in Vancouver, Britgish Columbia. Photograph is of a sun vacation type house but not one specically in mind.
