I currently live in CA and plan to
move after deciding on a place to live, but I can't seem to find a place that fits my needs.

I'm mainly looking on this forum, but
I've asked a few agents
and they said that sometimes there is a booking fee
added when the agent takes over the contract from the owner, and other fees that are not mentioned are also added, so plus, plus, plus. So, the total amount is like ？.

Ala Moana ～ I'm looking for Waikiki only, but
if you can find any other places, please let me know.

Super Kokosei, a volunteer group of high school students, is looking for new volunteers.
One more step is a high school based program to help children who are trying their best to make a new life in America.
We have two programs: a read aloud program to help the children get used to speaking English, and a homework help program to help them do their homework in Japanese.
The children who become our students range in age from middle school elementary school students to junior high school students, and their English levels vary. High school students who are fluent in Japanese can volunteer in the Homework Help Program, while high school students who are fluent in English can volunteer in the Read Aloud Program, whichever suits their style.
By continuing with weekly 30-minute sessions once a week for each week, service hours can also be easily accomplished to reach your goals.
You can also develop leadership skills while volunteering.
If you are interested, please register as a volunteer on our website. We will arrange an information session for you.

？

Do you hire a contractor to remove them ？ ?

We wash ours with cleanser to remove it.
After it is removed, I apply anti-fog coating
to the car glass. It will repel water and prevent dirt from sticking.

Can you recommend a kitchen renovation contractor?

We are considering renovating the kitchen in our condo. It is a small kitchen, so commercial cabinets won't fit. I got a quote from Home Depot for $16,000 for just the cabinets. With countertops, appliances, and the constructor's fee, it will be about $25,000. ∑ (ﾟ Д ﾟ )
Knowing how well thought out and modern Japanese cabinetry is, I honestly don't want to spend this amount on an orthodox cabinet design that hasn't been updated in decades.
Also, Godern cabinet company quoted us less than half the price of Home Depot if we use all the standard ready-made cabinets, but the material inside the cabinets is of a certain quality (the mirror surface is good quality, so it looks good), so it looks like it will not be durable ＆. I am not sure if it is easy to use or not, so I am not sure if I can decide.

So, I would like to hear your experiences.
Please tell us your success stories, failures, recommendations for cabinet companies, constructor companies, etc. ！

In particular, we would like to know about companies that offer Japanese-style cabinet designs inside ！
Thank you very much.

When I remodeled my kitchen a few years ago, I had a hard time finding a contractor.　I wish I had waited a little longer, because nowadays there are places that sell Japanese system kitchens ～. is custom made by a company that deals with California closets in Kahala Mall.

I renovated about 10 years ago using a constructor that a Realtor referred me to.

This is a cabinet shop near Cosco, I chose this place after 3 quotes because it was the cheapest and fastest time frame.

The workmanship was not bad.

I don't know how much it costs now because it was 10 years ago. 1bd room Renovation of kitchen and bathroom cost less than $10,000 at that time.

If you look at Google Maps, even the school area is
lined with houses. If you live in a place that is not safe to begin with, you can live there with a little ingenuity.

I have lived in this area for about 30 years, but
I don't feel any danger, and I live next door to three other houses.

Anyone who is renting real estate ､ or in the profession?
I am wondering if I should sell or rent my condo.
If I rent ､ is the amount I pay to the realtor monthly ？ or only at the time of contract ？
Thank you very much.

It depends on whether it is short term or long term, as well as negotiations with the real estate company, but I think 10% ～ 20% of the monthly rent is typical if you ask for property management. Ours is 10% for a lease of six months or more, but I think 20% is more common for vaqueroan management. In Hawaii, if you live out of state （ including returning to Japan ）, you need to manage your property with a management company in Hawaii, but if you manage it yourself, you do not need to pay monthly property management fees. If you manage your own property, you do not need to pay monthly property management fees. When you add tenants, you will need to pay a one-time tenant introduction fee, but in many cases, you do not need to go through a real estate agency if you manage your own property. If you manage the property yourself, you will be responsible for any eviction, so there is a higher risk involved. Also, if you rent the property, the tax rate will change, GET will be charged, and HOA will also affect your profit margin.

It used to be much easier to apply for permanent residency.
"Visa expired" then you could only get a permanent residence visa, so you applied for a green card.

There was no limit to the number of applications for lottery permanent residence, and each person could apply for as many as they wanted.
A friend of mine printed about 2,000 applications and won.

I wonder if the people who switched to Permanent Resident status will stay in the US for the rest of their lives.
If you are ready to make your bones in the U.S., you have to become an American citizen.

Even boarders can get permanent residency if they meet the requirements for application.

It is up to the permanent resident to obtain permanent residence and live anywhere in the world.
But there are restrictions on permanent residency, so you need to know that.

We are considering Refacing our kitchen cabinets.

I would have to get a quote from a

contractor for the type of cabinet and the size of the doors, but

I wanted to know the approximate cost.

The doors are 9 large and 9 small ． and there are about 8 drawers.

Also, please let us know if you have any recommendations.

My friend told me not to go for Japanese-Japanese. If you can only speak Japanese, it's no use, but if you insist on Japanese-Japanese, you'll get hurt, he said. The friend said she had a big trouble with a person she hired through Vivinavi ？ who was referred to her and she had a big trouble with him. It was quite a while ago, so I don't know if it's the same person, but I think they are similar in the scaremongering and stuffing.

I was interested in reading this, but it seems like it would be very difficult to find a good contractor.
So far my house is fine, but I'm getting worried about being able to choose the right contractor when the time comes.

To be sure, you don't know who .......... You don't even know who
is, do you? I don't have time to bother with other people every Sunday.

I went to urgent care at 11:30 am on the 8th and they finished at 4:30 pm.
I thought I would finish my activities after that at 3:00 PM, but I couldn't do anything else planned for that day.

The cats would be unfaithful if I walked out late
It's hard to keep the cats in a good mood and sundaes everyday.
