A Vacation Home in Waikiki

Many people dream of owning a vacation home in Hawaii.  My clients, Don and Dorothy Hobbs did just that - 27 years ago.  Don retired from his job with Pacific Bell in Seattle back in 1986 when he turned 60 and they came to Hawaii to purchase a condo in Waikiki.  Every year since then they have come for 6 months during the winter months and enjoyed staying in their small but comfortable 1-bdrm unit in Waikiki in a building called 444 Nahua.

Enjoying Retired Life

They have truly enjoyed living here on the island.  In the early years they were really active, playing golf, scuba diving and enjoying all that Hawaii has to offer.  In the last few years they have slowed down a bit and don't do all those activities as often as they used to but they still enjoy their regular walk along the Ala Wai Canal and cooking gourmet meals in their unit.

In an effort to support the teachers within our community, the Locations Foundation held our 4th Annual Teacher Awards Program. This program recognizes teachers in the community for their exceptional efforts both inside and outside the classroom. Teachers are nominated by members of the Locations Foundation, the non-profit arm of the real estate brokerage, Prudential Locations LLC. Award winners are selected based on the criteria set forth in the nomination process by the Teacher Awards Committee. The Locations Foundation has recognized over 60 teachers since the program was started several years ago, totaling over $12,500 in funds to teachers.
