This is the August, 2020 condominium market report for condos sold on Maui Hawaii through July, 2020.

In July 91 condominiums sold on Maui with a median price of $502,530 and an average price of $742,111. At the end of July there were 656 condominiums for sale on Maui which is approximately 6.4 months of inventory. Kihei had the highest number of sold condos with 28 in July while Kapalua had the highest median sale price for sold condos with a median sale price of $1,982,500 in July.

*COVID-19 continues to impact the Maui Real Estate Market. It is too early to tell how it may affect the local housing market longterm.

Although Maui condo sales rebounded on July compares to June, sales were down 43.8% compared to July 2019. With Real Estate Agents considered nonessential throughout Maui County through parts of March and April no showings of homes or condominiums were allowed.

**Condominium sales on Maui decreased significantly for the fourth consecutive month compared to what we would normally see. Median condo values decreased in July for the second consecutive month since COVID. Maui condos are often purchased as second properties or investment properties. Reduced flights and required quarantine has prevented many buyers from being able to travel to Maui to view properties. Concerns over the economy likely has affected both pending and recent condominium sales on Maui. There was a slight increase in both sales and pending sales in July, but overall condo sales activity on Maui is way down compared to normal. Condo inventory has increased with 6.4 months of inventory at this time. During July 2019 there was 4 months of inventory. With the amount of inventory and reduced demand we are on the cusp of seeing a buyers market for Maui condominiums. The typical rule of thumb is 6 plus months of inventory is considered a buyers market.

Maui Hawaii Real Estate Market Report For Single Family Homes August, 2020

Maui Single Family Home Report For August, 2020:

This is the August, 2020 real estate market report for single family homes sold on Maui Hawaii through July, 2020.

In July 86 single family homes sold on Maui with a median price of $777,595 and an average price of $1,045,388. At the end of July there were 399 single family homes for sale on Maui which is approximately 4.8 months of inventory. Wailuku had the highest number of sold homes with 25 in July while Napili/Kahana/Honokowai had the highest median sale price for sold homes with a median sale price of $7,667,500 in July. Two home sold in Napili/Kahana/Honokowai during July. 

Through July, 542 single family homes have sold on Maui with a median price of $766,925 and an average price of $1,052,329. The median sale price has increased 3.4% during 2020. The average sale price has decreased 2.7% during 2020. Wailuku has the highest number of sold homes with 134 in 2020. Kapalua has the highest median sale price for sold homes with a median sale price of $3,150,000 in 2020. The average Days On Market for sold homes on Maui is 144 during 2020. Maui homes are selling for an average of 96.8% of list price during 2020. Maui single family home sales are down 13.4% compared to the same period through July 2019.

2019 Maui Single Family Homes: 1,117 single family homes sold on Maui with a median price of $741,355 and an average price of $1,081,560. The median sale price increased 4.4% during 2019. The average sale price increased 5.7% during 2019. Wailuku had the highest number of sold homes during 2019 with 248 total sales while Kapalua had the highest median sale price for sold homes with a median sale price of $2,550,000 through during 2019. The average Days On Market for sold homes during 2019 was 133 days. Homes sold for an average of 96.7% of list price during 2019.

*It is common for home prices to increase this time of year due to it being peak season for Maui. This year is very different. Maui home sales have decrease, inventory has decreased, and values continue to increase.

**Home sales on Maui increased in July compared to June and match sales volume from July 2019. Total Maui home sales are still down over 13% from the same time period last year through July 2019. Median home values have continued to increase. Inventory levels are slowly decreasing which is likely helping to keep home values stable. Concerns over the economy likely has affected both pending and recent home sales on Maui, but both home sales and pending sales rebounded partially in June and returned to normal levels in July. Over the past 60 days I have noticed a large increase of new listings of single family homes priced under $700,000. These may be homeowners who need to sell and have priced their homes below market value for a quick sale. If this is the case, we could possibly see home values decrease until the local economy starts to recover and residents are able to go back to work. If home values are decreasing we should have the data within 30 days. At this point low inventory and low interest rates are fueling buyer demand. As long as inventory remains low we can likely expect Maui home values to continue to increase for the near future.

***COVID-19 continues to impact the Maui Real Estate Market. It is too early to tell how it may affect the local housing market longterm. Over the last four months we have seen home and condominium sales decrease significantly. In June home sales rebounded and in July we saw similar sales numbers as July 2019. With Real Estate Agents considered nonessential throughout Maui County through parts of March and April no showings of homes or condominiums were allowed. This affected pending sales for March and April, 2020 and closed sales starting in April and May, 2020. We have seen a decrease in new listing activity as well as an increase in listings being taken off the market temporarily or canceled. Trends are just now starting to show the affect COVID has had on Maui real estate sales. Unusually low inventory with low interest rates is fueling an increase on home values at this time on Maui. As long as home inventory and interest rates remain low we can expect this trend to continue.

Maui Hawaii Real Estate Market Report August, 2020

Here are the island wide Maui sales stats for homes and condos for August, 2020. The sales stats are for homes and condominiums sold on Maui through July, 2020. The amount of single family homes that sold in July increased significantly compared to June and was at the same level as July 2019. During July the median sale price for homes increased slightly compared to June. Inventory for single family homes has continued to decrease which is fueling demand and a slow increase in values. The amount of condominiums that sold in July increased significantly compared to June.

During July the median sale price for condos decreased slightly compared to June, but is down significantly compared to average sale price during the first five months of 2020. Demand for condominiums has continued to decrease and inventory for condominiums has increased. This has led to a decrease in condominium values for two consecutive months.

Over the last four months we have seen home and condominium sales decrease significantly. June was the first time we saw median prices decrease for both homes and condos.

Inventory levels are slowly decreasing which is likely helping to keep home values stable. Concerns over the economy likely has affected both pending and recent home sales on Maui, but both home sales and pending sales rebounded partially in June and again in July. Over the past 60-75 days I have noticed an increase of new listings of single family homes priced under $700,000. These may be homeowners who need to sell and have priced their homes below market value for a quick sale. If this is the case, we could possibly see home values decrease until the local economy starts to recover and residents are able to go back to work.
