Noteworthy Oceanfront Properties Worth Previewing Along the Kona Coast

Have you found that searching for a truly oceanfront property on the internet to be somewhat of a tricky process? You may find a listing categorized as oceanfront, but when you delve deeper into the listing information, you will find that they are not truly oceanfront. Many oceanfront properties that come up in your online search may be quite a distance from the shoreline, or set back behind a conservation area fronting the shoreline.

Decreased Inventory Available for Oceanfront Properties

Recently, I’ve added several new listings to my Oceanfront Property Gallery that I deem to be noteworthy oceanfront properties along the Kona and South Kohala Coast. One thing to note is that the current inventory for oceanfront properties along the Kohala Coast is substantially lower than what it was at this time last year.

Puako is certainly a community where you can see a dramatic change in listing inventory. Currently, there is only one oceanfront residential property on the market compared to six that listed and sold last year. The Puako Bay subdivision continues to offer some terrific oceanfront parcels for those interested in building a custom home, but if you are looking for an existing home, the options are limited.

Additional Information

The inventory for truly oceanfront properties along the Kohala Coast continues to dwindle as the demand for Big Island real estate continues to improve. Remember that high demand, low inventory, and recent sales at higher price points will drive the prices for oceanfront real estate.
