West Maui September 2020 Headlines

For further details on any of the statements below, please refer to the sales reports.

  • 45 sales in September: 10 Residential, 34 Condo and 1 land (off by roughly -20%)
  • However, even with the Vacation Rental Moratorium and the mandatory quarantine – the condo market is showing resiliency with overall sales volume only down 16% (per unit sale) for the year and gaining momentum.
  • Fueled by Kaanapali’s new development Luana Kai, $1M+ Condo transactions are actually up 26% (and 74% in Kaanapali specifically)
  • Instead of income driving the demand, lifestyle is.
  • The $1M+ market is still moving considerably at +2% year over year
  • Amid travel restrictions and less sales volume, some huge transactions have taken place in the past 60 days
  • Oceanfront 3 Kapalua Pl sold for $15.5M
  • Avg Residential Sales price for Sept | $3.16M
  • Prices/demand still remain strong – Especially in the residential sector. Good, well-located properties are moving quickly.
  • Looking ahead –  2020 may finish with less than a 10% sales volume dip from last year which would be truly tremendous all things considered.
