Hi~
Generally, if you see condos for that price they are leasehold and the lease is almost up (usually within 1-5 years left), which basically leaves one out of luck. Yes, it is possible to re-neogotiate the lease or buy the rights, but it is usually an astronomical amount.

Also, without knowing the area of rentals it is impossible to say if the area is 'good' or not. In Honolulu any place under $1000 is scary; it is difficult to find a studio at that price. Sometimes, it is a room in a private home for that price.

Yea, I read a little more closely and found the word leasehold in many of them. Thanks for the responses!
