Islandwide Insights: A Market Moving at a More Deliberate Pace
The Honolulu Board of REALTORS® reported that buyer activity stayed consistent across the island, even as decision timelines lengthened. Inventory growth has expanded options for buyers, while stable pricing continues to reflect confidence in Oʻahu’s housing sector.
Key dynamics shaping today’s Oʻahu market:
