It’s no secret that Hawaii is no paradise for renters. My friend’s studio apartment in the heart of downtown Honolulu draws over $1200.

But just how tight is Hawaii’s rental market? Lee Cataluna in the Honolulu Advertiser reports on a house in Kailua that put up a closet for rent on Craigslist. Yes, you read that right. A walk-in closet that’s probably big enough only for a twin bed and a nightstand. All for $100. And guess what? There were not one, not two, but 33 replies. And apparently a laundry room in the same house went for even more.

How someone can stand living in what is probably no more than an 8 x 10 ft space, I don’t know. But I guess it beats sleeping on the beach, I guess.
