Aloha and Happy New Year! 🌺
This is your January 2025 West Hawaiʻi Real Estate Market Update with Eric and Julie Ziemelis of the 365 Hawaii Team at Real Broker, plus a clear look at what to expect heading into 2026.
In this update, we break down how single-family homes and condos performed very differently at the end of 2025, why December surprised us (especially in the condo market), and what today’s numbers actually mean for buyers, sellers, retirees, and investors considering West Hawaiʻi.
We cover:
• December 2025 market stats
• Why condo sales surged at year-end
• Pricing, negotiation power, and what’s “on sale”
• Interest rates, affordability, and buyer behavior
• HOA and insurance impacts on condos
• Why this is a balanced market, not a crash
• What buyers and sellers should do now to prepare for 2026
If you’re thinking about buying or selling on the Big Island, especially in West Hawaiʻi, this video will help you understand where the market really is — without the hype you’re seeing on the mainland.
