Mauna Kea Resort March Market Update: Overview of New Home Construction on the Kona-Kohala Coast
As we round out Q1 of 2023, the scarcity of quality inventory continues to be one of the biggest challenges in the resort housing market on the Kona-Kohala Coast. However, we are witnessing a number of homes that are currently under construction coming on the market. These homes are being offered brand new, fully completed and in move-in ready condition.
A large portion of the existing homes on the Kohala Coast are multi-generational properties, meaning they stay within one family for decades and rarely change hands. As demand grows for real estate in less-dense, clean, and environmentally healthy locations (like Hawaii) with more overall space and year-round outdoor living to enjoy with loved ones, contractors and investors are responding with new construction.
There are several benefits of buying a new home in Hawaii. Foremost, many existing homes require time intensive construction projects or renovations which can be extremely challenging and stressful for owners who live thousands of miles away during certain times of the year. With a newly constructed home, a Buyer will assume no deferred maintenance. For the most discerning Buyers, the convenience of “move-in ready” is paramount. Other benefits of buying a new home include the protection from a new home warranty, living with modern floor plans and design qualities, having high-rated energy efficient systems and appliances, and living in a newer if not brand new community with desirable amenities.
Hawai’i Life Real Estate Brokers CEO Matt Beall recently stated in a Luxury Market Report, “Our affluent clients not only know what they want, but what they don’t want. They want the highest quality. The best of the best. A second home with stunning views that is fairly new if not new construction. They do not want homes that require renovations. They are not in a hurry. And they are patient and willing to wait for a property that fits their parameters.”
