Oahu offers a lot of beautiful things in all aspects. Known as the ‘Gathering Place’, Oahu certainly lives up to the name. From the heiaus or the ancient Hawaiian temples and Petroglyphs, the native rock carvings to the modern buildings and establishments, Oahu certainly brings an interesting dynamic. Of all the Hawaiian Islands, it is the 3rd largest one. It is home to nearly 3-quarters of the state’s population.

Oahu is said to have originated in a single ‘hot spot’ in the earth’s crust. Then over millions and hundreds of years, the earth’s mantle slowly moved to the northwest of this hot spot, which created each island. For Oahu’s timeline, it is said that the island is about 4 million years old, and was created by two extinct volcanoes, known as Ko’olau and Wai’anae mountain ranges.

For the Oahu real estate market, there are some very diverse and affordable options. There are condos and town houses already available in the area. This is also true for single-family homes. The island has some dramatic and fantastic views of the beach.
