Hawaii Island Permits Update

We have added information on more than 21,000 Hawaii County building permits to REsearch! This update comes after our Honolulu County permit data update earlier this year, which added information on more than 78,000 Oahu permits.

For Hawaii Island, this update focused on updating our building permit information from September 2012 to today. As a result, REsearch now provides information on more than 347,000 Hawaii County building permits dating back to the 1960s!

We gratefully acknowledge the support of Hawaii County offices in making this information available in REsearch. And we are still working on providing even more permit and other property information available for all islands!

American Express, Discover Card Now Accepted

We are excited to announce that Hawaii Information Service is now happy to accept payments via American Express and Discover credit cards, in addition to Visa and Mastercard! We know many of you have asked for these payment options, and thanks to upcoming upgrades to our accounting system, we’re now able to take all four of the most popular credit cards.
