About Hawaii Rental Housing Providers Alliance

Rental housing is an essential part of the housing ecosystem.‍ ‍

The Hawaii Rental Housing Providers Alliance (HRHPA) represents everyday, independent self-managing rental housing providers across our islands: the local “DIY” rental property owners. Our mission is to uplift and protect Hawaii’s rental housing ecosystem through strong advocacy, practical education, ethical standards, and reliable, real-world resources tailored for DIY housing providers.

HRHPA believes that responsible rental housing providers are essential to healthy, stable communities. We work to elevate that message at both the county and state levels, giving our members a unified voice in policy discussions that affect private property rights and long-term housing availability.

We equip our members with clear, Hawaii-specific forms, tools, and guidance designed to help them navigate the challenges of providing long-term rentals—so they can protect their homes, their investments, and the families they serve. Our mission is to empower Hawaii’s long-term rental property owners through advocacy, education and collaboration — protecting property rights, promoting fair and balanced housing policies, and supporting the sustainability of rental housing for our communities.
