Is the Hawaii housing market in a bubble, or is this just the new normal? In this live episode, Derek sits down with mortgage expert Jodie Tanga from Pacific Rim Mortgage to tackle the million-dollar question every buyer and seller on Oahu is asking: Is the market overpriced?

We break down why relying on county tax assessments is a trap for buyers, why shopping by "price per square foot" backfires in Hawaii, and whether those aging '60s and '70s high-rises in town will ever get demolished. Plus, we answer live viewer questions about conventional mortgage limits and strict investment property gifting rules.
