Hawaii Housing Report

Welcome to the November Hawaii Housing Report, your monthly deep dive into Hawaii real estate trends, mortgage rates, home prices, and market conditions across Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island. Hosted by Patrick O’Neill, Principal Broker of Luxury Homes International, with expert economic analysis from Dr. Paul Brewbaker of TZ Economics, this episode delivers timely insight for buyers, sellers, investors, and Hawaii real estate professionals.

In this month’s report, we break down the latest market data and explain what it means for Hawaii’s housing market heading into the end of 2025. We cover:

  • Oahu single-family home trends: inventory levels, median price direction, and buyer demand

  • Honolulu condo market update: why condo prices remain flat and how insurance, deferred maintenance, and aging buildings are shaping valuations

  • Mortgage rate movement: the 30-year fixed rate, inflation expectations, and where jumbo financing is headed

  • Market dynamics across the islands: Maui rebuilding pathways, Big Island development outlook, and Kauai ownership trends

  • Seasonality factors and what to expect during the winter buying cycle

  • The impact of construction costs, supply constraints, and migration patterns on long-term price stability

Dr. Brewbaker offers his trademark big-picture perspective on the Hawaii economy, including inflation, jobs, tourism recovery, household formation, and how global macro trends influence local real estate. Patrick O’Neill adds boots-on-the-ground insight from the Honolulu market, including what sellers are experiencing, where buyers are focused, and how inventory shifts are affecting negotiations.

Whether you’re a homeowner, future buyer, investor, or a real estate agent, this episode provides clear, data-driven analysis to help you understand where the Hawaii housing market is headed.
