Disclaimer: Zooming in on the figures of a specific geographic area or property type may lead to different conclusions that the overall view. Maui’s market place is much smaller than Oahu’s, and a few high or low sales have a greater effect on the statistical numbers without necessarily indicating a big market swing one way or another.
