Hawaii is a unique place to build a home or modify a currently standing one. While this seems like an easy decision upfront, there is a lot to consider when planning any kind of home build, renovation, or remodel in Hawaii. Home Planning Hawaii provides information and education throughout the home construction process, and suggests people always consider the following when planning a building project:

*Price -* Price is always one of the biggest factors. Right now, due to the high demand for home building and home improvement projects nationwide, as well as a slow rebound in lumber production, there is a high demand for lumber and less supply than needed. This makes prices high and draws out the amount of time it will take to get the project completed.

*Timeframe -* This should cover every part of the process from planning to the end of construction. Be prepared that things may not move quickly, it can take up to four weeks or longer to get a permit approved, so be patient with the process, and understand that the people working to build for you are doing everything they can to get it done as fast as possible.

*Zoning and Permits -* Zoning makes a very big difference on what and where someone can build. Where a property is located will play into what can be built, the number of stories a home can have, how much square footage can be added etc. Permits will be needed for almost every project, so factor that into timeframe and cost.

*Environmental Concerns and Regulations -* There are many environmental considerations for homebuilding in Hawaii due to the unique ecosystem, and a lot of effort is made to preserve the natural beauty and uniqueness of Hawaii. While oceanfront living is a dream it comes with some different concerns than building in a landlocked area. Areas along the beach will have different, more restrictive zoning requirements to accommodate shoreline protection and conservation. There is a lot of effort that goes into preserving and maintaining seawalls and the natural state of the environment. Hawaii is also working to encourage green and sustainable building practices, so those can be taken into consideration when planning your home building project.
