Quality real estate services on the Big Island
of Hawaii
Hilo, Hawaii
Zip Code 96720
Located on the East side of the island and nestled along the slopes of
Mauna Kea, Hilo is the second largest city in the state of Hawaii. It is a thriving community with
nearly 40,000 people. Hilo is
known as the rainiest city on the planet, although it would be hard to
believe at times. Rain usually
falls at night or early in the morning, allowing many hours of sunshine
throughout the day to enjoy the abundant flowers, trees, and waterfalls that
make Hilo famous.

The real estate market in Hilo is very affordable compared to other
areas on the island and considerably less expensive than the majority of
the state. The cost of living
is also very reasonable, and there is a strong community with numerous
activities for families. Hilo
is also the county seat of the island. Currently, Harry Kim is the Hawaii Island Mayor, but he
may soon be running for governor.
Hilo is a rapidly growing area with many commercial opportunities
available to an expanding market.
