ECONOMIC UPDATE: With the recent increase in volatility in the Stock Market we are seeing increased activity by real estate investors and buyers who have been sitting on the fence. Interest in Maui real estate has been particularly high for many reasons, including its popularity as a safe destination of choice, increased direct flights, and the Island’s good underlying economics for real estate with inventory shrinking and demand increasing following many leading economists’ predictions.
Statistics for the previous month’s real estate activity here on Maui indicate days on the market was 90 days for Residential and 93 days for condos with inventory slowly declining. Some of the market sectors would be considered to be a Seller’s market. Median sales prices for residential over the last year was up 7% from $531,000 to $570,000 while Condos increased 12% from $375,000 to $420,000.
On another note while Maui average prices on Homes generally increased by 17%, Wailea Home prices took a little dip by 7% while Napili and Lahaina were up over 42%. Kihei was up 24%. Interestingly for the last several months about 44% of all sales were CASH. Today, however, with the low rates available and some new loan programs being introduced we are seeing increases in the amount of financed offers.
The most recent move by loosening up down payments should also add fuel to the fire. Many buyers are hoping to secure a property before our quickly approaching “high season.”
