Oahu Million Dollar Home and Condo Sales For 2012

Here on Oahu, we had 448 homes that sold over $1 million last year, which was up 14% from 2011’s 393 sales. Meanwhile, million dollar condo sales were down 17% with only 117 sales compared to 141 in 2011.

I don’t expect that decline to continue, especially with luxury projects like One Ala Moana that sold nearly 200 averaging over $1 million over the course of a few days. There were also several projects like the Allure and Trump Waikiki that had developer sales that closed outside of MLS.
