There is no better time to be on the lookout for real estate bargains, especially for land in some of the most desriable locations like Hawaii. The Aloha State has become a desirable place for vacation and retirement homes over the years. The Big Island of Hawaii actually offers more land area than the other islands combined, and there are some very nice areas of widely divergent weather and geography. Here’s a link to a discussion comparing differences in climate, water temperature and even economic factors between Hawaii and California.

The community of Hilo is on the wet side of the island. It rains almost every day, and this has created a very tropical environment. Here you will also find the government complex, although there are satellite offices in other districts on the island. There are many qualified real estate agents in Hilo and they can show you the best Big Island real estate in that area.

One of the other districts on Hawaii Island is Kona, on the dry side of the slopes. As the tropical rain clouds pass over the mountains much of the moisture is squeezed out, and onto Hilo on the windward side. Consequently the Kona side is much drier. The sunnier climate tends to draw people, especially vacationers, to the dry side of the island, although Hilo has a substantial permanent population of residents.

With Kona coffee orchards common at higher levels and a large percentage of parcels offering amazing ocean views, you can find hundreds of Hawaii land options in this slow economy. It is possible to find large estate homesites at prices that are way below the peak in 2006. If you spend any time on the Big Island you will notice a more relaxed atmosphere than you’ll find on Maui or Oahu. Give some consideration to the Big Island, and especially Kona, if you are thinking about purchasing land for a vacation home.
