I should probably head to bed real soon. I need to get up early and pick up DD's room a little bit. She was working on it but I swear it looked better before she started.
You wouldn't believe how out of control it is here, in just a few years. In the late 90s DH and I built our home with a ton of stuff from businesses going out of business and one forclosure auction and things like that. Then, Maui started with a hugely insane bubble...the going price now to build a standard-no frills house (this doesn't include the land cost) is $150-$200 per square foot so, a 2000 sf house would easily cost over $400,000 to build...add in land and you can easily hit $700,000-$1,000,000. It is so insane, I feel so bad for our friends who can't afford a house and who's rent is comparable to my mortgage...very scary.
We really got lucky though
it is so sad to drive around and see people with Trees in there houses
and one guy died
he was driving down the Avenue of Pines and a tree fell and crushed his truck
