East Hawaii Real Estate Update | Prices, Inventory & Buyer Opportunities

In this East Hawaii real estate update, Julie from 365 Hawaii sits down with Kealohanui Browning from Team Nakanishi at Real to discuss what’s happening in the housing market across Hilo, Puna, and Hawaiian Paradise Park (HPP).

We break down the latest numbers including active listings, median sales prices, days on market, and months of inventory to help buyers and sellers understand the current trends in East Hawaii.

Right now we’re seeing signs of a slight shift toward a buyer-leaning market, especially in Puna and Hawaiian Paradise Park. Sellers are offering more concessions like closing cost credits and repairs, while buyers are starting to see more opportunities as inventory slowly increases.

We also talk about:
• Current housing prices in Hilo, Puna, and HPP
• New construction homes and what buyers can expect in the $500k–$600k range
• Traffic and commute considerations for East Hawaii neighborhoods
• What concessions buyers are successfully negotiating
• The iconic Merrie Monarch Festival in Hilo and other upcoming events
• Community efforts to protect Hawaii’s reefs and ocean environment

If you’re thinking about buying property or relocating to East Hawaii on the Big Island, this update will help you understand the local market and lifestyle.
