In Hawaii, managing rental properties for others, including collecting rent and handling maintenance, requires a real estate license.
Joint tenancy in Hawaii involves equal ownership with the right of survivorship, meaning that upon one owner's death, the property passes to the surviving owners.
A right of first refusal gives the tenant the opportunity to buy the property on the same terms as a potential third-party buyer.
For a deed to be valid in Hawaii, it must be delivered to and accepted by the grantee.
The Hawaii Residential Landlord-Tenant Code requires landlords to provide a lease agreement and their contact information before finalizing a lease.
