- The sales figures for June 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. Median sale prices increased nicely - they actually are at the highest they've been in nine months, and the combined three-month moving average is the highest in over a year. This was in spite of the strange sales volume. Homes sales increased a tad, while condo sales dropped sizably (maybe due to the financing challenges caused by low hurricane insurance coverage). This may also explain the mixed inventory levels - the number of homes decreased, while condos increased. Pending sales volume looks positive. (7/6/24)

- Happy Independence Day! (7/4/24)
