To: The Hawaii State Senate and Governor David Ige

Kill SB 2089

Kill SB 2089 and stop killing the rights of absentee owners.

Why is this important?

This Senate bill would discriminate against absentee owners who manage the renting of their unit themselves. This bill would mandate that the owner hire a real estate broker to manage the unit and have to pay40%-60% of the rental fees to the broker. This would cause many owners to sell their units and further bring down housing value. Owners would lose control of their legal property.
