Ground Floor Ali’i Lani Condo Offers Nearly Maintenance-Free Lifestyle

A few months ago I shared some things to consider when purchasing a condo in Hawaii. Today I want to provide a specific example of a condo that would make a great home. In my last post, I shared how HOA fees often cover maintenance fees, which is a huge benefit to most homebuyers. Add a nearly maintenance-free lifestyle to a great location and we have this secluded 2-bed, 2-bath condo in the Ali’i Lani complex in Kailua-Kona on the Big Island, listed at $285,000.

This large yard is located at the rear of the building making it feel less crowded.

Noteworthy Features

Some people think the purchase of a condo means you have no access to green space. That is not the case with this clean and well-maintained condo in the heart of Kailua-Kona. Condo living in Hawaii doesn’t always mean your view is that of another building. In this case, the view out both your front and back windows is almost serene.

Besides great access to green space, this unit has a well-screened lanai that offers a level of seclusion that most units in this complex cannot match.

In Hawaii, it’s common for people to purchase a condo and rent it out. This unit is both move-in ready or ready for renters. Keep in mind that most condominium complexes have rules about turning a unit into a rental. For example, some (like the condos at Ali’i Lani) do not allow you to turn your condo into a vacation rental. However, you are free to rent it out with a 30-day minimum lease.

Open concept living is not only found in single-family homes. Many condos in Hawaii feature large windows with views of the ocean or nature and offer floor plans that suit a buyer who doesn’t want to feel cramped in a space.

The Alii Lani complex offers a resident manager, 2 pools and 2 hot tubs.
