Condo Owners’ Forum

The inaugural Condo Owners’ Forum is a free education event for condominium owners and residential property owners in common-interest communities statewide, including association board members. It covers condominiums under HRS Chapter 514B, cooperative housing under HRS Chapter 421I and planned community associations under HRS Chapter 421J. The forum runs 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in the Hawaiʻi State Capitol Auditorium, Basement Level, 415 S. Beretania St. Topics include rights and protections under Hawaiʻi Revised Statutes Chapter 514B, feedback for legislators ahead of the 2027 Legislative Session, practical risk-reduction strategies, condominium values, insurance costs and accountability of building boards and management. Featured speakers are Tom Roselli (McLarens, National General Adjuster) and John McCarthy (Retired HPD Deputy Chief) on risk management from industry and safety perspectives; Raelene Tenno (Education Chair, HCCA) on owner education; and Representative Kim Coco Iwamoto (House District 25, Ala Moana, Kaka‘ako, Downtown Honolulu). The event is sponsored by Representative Kim Coco Iwamoto and organized by a grassroots advocacy group promoting fair administration of Hawaiʻi’s condominium laws. Admission is free.
