The 2025 story for Maui Real Estate is a market that’s normalizing: more selection, longer market times, and smarter negotiations. Year-to-date (YTD) through August, closings are lower versus 2024, medians have eased overall, and buyers are taking their time—especially in the condo segment—while single-family pricing at the median is holding its ground. Below we move from the macro picture to detailed takeaways for homes, condos, land, and the key sub-markets buyers ask us about most. If you want the raw numbers behind every chart, the complete RAM report is posted at MauiRealEstateStats.com.

Macro Backdrop (Why This Moment Feels Different)

National housing data shows a gentle thaw: existing-home sales improved in July with a 4.01M units sold and inventory rose versus last year while prices were essentially flat—an environment that typically gives buyers better negotiating power. Mortgage rates have also eased into early September (30-year averages near the mid-6% range), nudging affordability in the right direction. Hawaiʻi’s visitor counts softened in July but longer-term state forecasts still point to gradual growth. Maui was off compaed to 2019 for visitor counts and spending by 25% and 17% respectively.

The local upshot: more choices on Maui, patient offer timelines, and a premium on leading the market in value and presentation. (National sources: NAR July Existing-Home Sales & Housing Snapshot; Freddie Mac PMMS. Hawaiʻi macro: DBEDT releases.)
