- HBR has released the November neighborhood data here. (12/16/18)

- The November sales numbers for the Oahu real estate market have been released by the Honolulu Board of Realtors®. Here is a single-page set of charts showing the last 12 months of data. It was another mixed month. Sales volume continued to slow, which fits this time of year, but at a faster pace than last year. The median prices for both property types were modestly higher than 12 months ago, but mixed compared to last month. Inventory was fairly flat, and pending sales volume looks fine. Here are the full HBR stats for Oahu. Individual neighborhood data will be released in the middle of the month. (12/7/18)
