The Maui Real Estate Market Update – September 2025

Data current through September 2025 from the REALTORS® Association of Maui (RAM). For full charts and monthly PDFs, visit MauiRealEstateStats.com.

The rhythm of the Maui real estate market has shifted from sprint to stride. Inventory is deeper, timelines are longer, and strategy matters again. Year-to-date, closed sales across all property types are down about 19% while the island’s overall median price—just over the one-million-dollar mark—has eased roughly 13% from last year. Listings now average about 140 days on market, and most sellers are closing near 95% of list—proof that negotiations are back, but demand hasn’t disappeared.
