Konadave,
We have 4 acres in Ocean View. Not sure if the location would restrict using certain Builder/Contractors.
We are looking for opions and experiences, good & bad from anyone, so we may make a educated decision.
Mahalo for your input!

Jim

Location is very important, this is a big island and if you get a GC from further away they will charge you for travel time/expenses too. My builder lives in Kau, he has built several homes for me and my friends/clients, you can reach him at 808.928.3015 or builditkau@yahoo.com. His name is Michael Munnerlyn.

Shocked You told me you'd unleash a couple Tongans with baseball bats if your builder worked for anyone else! Is this an open invitation for ME to call him too? Laughing

That was back at the time when I was getting spec houses built. I'm not doing that now, so he is free.

Jim, I highly recommend Scott Stabo, of Stabo Construction. He lives in Discovery Harbour, which is right down the road from Ocean View. We've known him for 5 years and he is very fair and honest; he'll work with you and won't try to sell you something you don't need. I've seen some of the houses that he's built from scratch and some of the work that he's had to do to correct another contractor's bad work. He does a very good job and is personally involved with all of his projects. His phone number is 808-929-8050; if you call please tell him that you got his name from me.
