Multi-Generational Living

Multi-Generational living may be a new trend in real estate; however, here on Maui, this has been a very common theme for a long, long time.

There are two very important reasons for this. The first reason is economic. With the high cost of living here in the Islands, families often share living arrangements to save money.

The second reason is more cultural in nature. There are many families with Hawaiian and Asian descent in our population. They have a very strong cultural tradition for this type of living arrangement.

In fact, the term you often see used in Hawaii is “Ohana”. The term “Ohana” literally means family. It has come to mean any type of separate living arrangement either inside the home or a detached cottage. Typically these Ohanas have their own kitchens.

If you are looking for a home with an Ohana either for economic reasons or to share with another family member, please allow us to help you find the ideal property for your budget.

Have a wonderful week!
