Activity remained balanced across most regions, with no single area driving outsized changes in island-wide results. The condo market showed a modest shift in pace, with 40 sales (+3% YoY) and a median price of $616,500 (-9% YoY), while median days on market increased to 52, signaling a more deliberate buyer approach following stronger activity late last year.
