Market Update – April 2026
Hawaiʻi Island’s housing market remained steady in April, with single-family home sales rising 22% year over year to 187 transactions and the median price increasing to $630,000 (+6% YoY). A notable shift occurred on the supply side, with new listings nearly doubling (+93% YoY), giving buyers more choice and supporting overall activity. Regionally, Kailua-Kona and Hilo continued to anchor demand, while more price-sensitive regions showed mixed performance, contributing to a more balanced market overall. The condo segment softened slightly, with sales down 9% year over year island-wide and pricing adjusting modestly (-8% YoY), alongside a slower pace of activity. Looking ahead, as mortgage rates trend upward and geopolitical uncertainty continues, the months ahead will be important in determining how buyer confidence holds as the market moves into the summer season.
