Hawaii Island Real Estate Market Update – Buyers Have Upper Hand (Sept 2025)

The Hawaiʻi Island real estate market is shifting, with buyers getting the upper hand in condos, and sellers pricing like its 2025, not 2022 to get their homes off the market.

Our panelists from around the island discuss the latest numbers for August/September 2025. From Kona to Hilo, Puna to Hawaiian Ocean View Estates, we cover how many homes sold, what the median sales prices look like, and how close sellers are getting to their asking price.

In this update, we’ll explore:
• Year-over-year housing trends across the Big Island
• Which districts are gaining momentum and which are softening
• Median price changes and absorption rates
• What buyers and sellers need to know right now
