President of the Honolulu Board of REALTORS®
Let’s see what the President of the Honolulu Board of REALTORS®, Shannon Heaven said.
“We’re seeing a slight decrease in total sales month-to-month as families focus on the return to the school year and prepare for the holiday season, which is typical for this time of the year.
Despite the modest dip in market activity, the majority of homebuyers continue to bid over the asking price in the hopes of securing a property to call home.”
Oahu Home Sellers
Sellers, the market is still moving very quickly and our inventory is still low on the island. Home prices continue to increase and the demand is strong. You’re in a great position to list your home for sale if the time is right for you. Homes being listed for sale are usually receiving multiple offers, over the asking price, in a matter of days if it’s priced and staged right. If you’re considering selling, let’s discuss what your goals are and go over what your home is really worth.
Buyers Looking for Oahu Real Estate
Buyers, I know it’s hard out there. Continue being patient and don’t give up. Many buyers have left the market out of frustration. Right now though, it may be the perfect time for you. Remember patience is still the key if you’re looking to buy, it is so important you work with an agent that knows the market and area well. They will be your best resource in writing a competitive offer.
Even in this crazy market, we have strategies to help you with getting your offer accepted. Do you want to know how, contact us.
