President of the Honolulu Board of REALTORS®
Let’s see what the President of the Honolulu Board of REALTORS®, Shannon Heaven said.
“The market appears to be holding steady, and the increase in closed sales for all properties is a welcome sign that Hawai‘i families are getting their offers accepted and moving into their homes.
Additionally, a large portion of sellers are receiving bids above their original list prices, which tells us that we remain in a competitive market despite the expected holiday lull.”
Oahu Home Sellers
Sellers, the real estate market is still very competitive. Interest rates are still low and there is not a lot of inventory on the island. What I am starting to see in some areas, homes are staying longer on the market. What this means is, it will take more time and effort to sell your home than you might have anticipated. If you want your home to be sold quickly for top dollar then let me help you get organized and stage your house so that buyers can envision themselves living in it!
