In today's video, Kenny offers an in-depth look at a critical decision many military families face when PCS'ing to Hawaii: whether to opt for base housing or buy a home on the island. Drawing from his own experiences moving from Los Angeles to Hawaii and his career as part of a military family, Kenny provides valuable insights into both options.
➡️ He discusses the benefits of living in base housing, such as the close-knit community and inclusive amenities, which can be a comfort during deployments or transitions. However, he also delves into the financial advantages and personal satisfaction that come with purchasing a home, even in a high-cost area like Hawaii.
Kenny walks us through his personal journey, explaining why his family chose to buy homes at their last two duty stations and how these decisions have impacted their financial security and lifestyle. He highlights the critical aspects of each option, from the potential for investment growth and equity in buying a home to the supportive, ready-made community found in base housing. By sharing his experiences and the nuanced considerations involved in these decisions, Kenny aims to equip other military families with the knowledge they need to make the best choice for their circumstances.

I love your river analogy. It applies to more than the housing market.

I like that you guys can challenge one another during this video, respectfully! I have a question - regarding the remarks around the 16:00 mark about how people in base housing aren’t saving money. $3200 for a JRNCO 3BR utilities included vs $4800 plus utilities to buy a home in Ewa. Is it fair to say staying on base is a bad idea for someone staying here for 3 years? IMO the housing market isn’t a river right now…these interest rates have turned the river into some raging white water. It could be very dangerous to get in the water. Its tough.

If your credit score is high 800s & you are an officer with a family of 5 & 3 cars - can you always count on a no money down VA loan? Or is the competition for buying homes there too high in the market today with multiple offers...? do VA loans not compete as well or a non concern ? Is there a reliable "what you can qualify for" calculator without applying for a loan. We Won't be there for quite awhile & not ready. Lastly I need space to park & that is another concern on base/off base buying a house decision. Not going to enjoy the commute by the sounds of it if in Ewa areas. Absolutely Love the channel- always brings great information & masterfully answering many of our questions. Thank you 🫡
