November 2020 – O’ahu’s Housing Market Holds Strong

November 2020 - O'ahu’s Housing Market Holds Strong

O‘ahu’s Housing Market Holds Strong Despite Limited Inventory

Overbidding and low inventory drive ultra-competitive market amid ongoing pandemic

Closed sales of single-family homes on O‘ahu increased 5.6% and remained relatively steady from last month, while condo sales decreased 6.2% compared to this same period the previous year. Year-to-date, single-family home sales are almost back on track with 2019 activity and were down just 0.7%. Meanwhile, the condo market is struggling to recover to pre-pandemic levels and remained down by a double-digit percentage of 15.8%.

The number of single-family homes and condos sold above the original asking price skyrocketed 210.2% and 79.2%, respectively, compared to this time last year. Sales in both markets continue to move quickly, with single-family homes and condos spending a median of 10 and 16 days on the market, respectively.

“This seemingly new normal of buyers entering bids tens of thousands of dollars over asking price clearly reflects the urgent need for more housing,” said Tricia Nekota, president, Honolulu Board of REALTORS®. “Despite limited inventory, the high demand for housing is keeping O‘ahu’s real estate market strong and steady throughout the public health crisis.”
