        <title>Maui's Resort Areas: a Nine Month Review of the Market</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Maui's Resort Areas: a 9 Month Review of the Market for Condos and Homes 


How the past nine months compare with the same period in the prior year


Maui has been slowly recovering in the wake of the tragic fire of August 8, 2023.  Many buyers and sellers have asked me how the market is doing, so I've compiled some data for both condominium and home sales by area comparing the period from 8/8/23-5/8/24 with the same period in 22-23.


West and South Maui Condo Sales


The statistics show that sales are down primarily in West Maui, with the condominium market in Kapalua hit the hardest, with number of sales down -66 and dollar volume down 49.  with uncertainty regarding the future of Short Term Rentals in the apartment zone, we are seeing more sales at hotel-zoned properties.  Kaanapali has more hotel-zoned properties (like Honua Kai, Whaler, Alii, and Mahana) at lower prices than Kapalua, which has the Montage Residences, Kapalua Bay and the Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua, which command higher sales prices.


However, while it appears that condo sales are up in Wailea &amp; Makena, and subsequently, South Maui, they are actually down -19 if you remove the new developer sales. 


It's important to note that two developments began closing in 2022-2023 (Paradise Ridge in Kihei and Makena Golf &amp; Beach Club).  In 2023-204, we continued to see new sales recording at Makena Golf &amp; Beach Club and at Lai Loa.  In the last 9 months, there were 55 sales at Lai Loa and 13 at Makena GBC.  This amounts to 60 of the Wailea/Makena condo sales.  The low sales price was $1,519,250 and the high was $13,000,000.  The total sales volume at these two complexes was $291,586,280 or 60 of the total dollar volume.  It also impacts stats such as days on market, as they typically will go under contract pre-construction.  That is why the average days on market for this period for all of Wailea/Makena is 620, but if the new development is removed, it is actually 95.


It is also important to note where we are seeing the majority of the sales activity.   In the last nine months, the bulk of the condo sales (96) in West Maui are under $3,000,000.  In fact, 62 were under $1M, 29 from $1-2M, and 5 from $2-3M.  In West Maui, there was only one sale over $5M, a Montage Residence at Kapalua Bay that closed at $12M


In South Maui those stats are a bit different due to the new developments, with 88 under $3M and 12 from $3-13M.


I expect we may see a slowing of sales in the condominium market in the next quarter, particularly in those areas not zoned hotel, on the heels of the Mayor's announcement of a bill to phase out short term rentals in apartment zones.  This affects more than 7000 properties that currently rent legally under Chapter 19.12.020 of the County Code.  Read More about the proposed legislation that is impacting Maui's Short Term Rentals

West and South Maui: Home Sales


In West Maui, 73 of the home sales were under $3M, with the largest percentage in the $1-2M range.  In South Maui, the figure was higher for homes under $3M at 84.  That said in West Maui, there were only 3 sales over $5M and in South Maui, there were 9 sales over $5M.


It is not surprising to see sales in the lower end of the market, as some of those who received insurance payouts opted to relocate.  Lower priced inventory was harder to come by and home sales ( of Sales) was down everywhere except Wailea and Makena, where sales were up 11.  In terms of Volume of sales ($) both Wailea and Makena were up, as was Napili/Kahana/Honokowai, which has more affordable housing than the resort areas of Kaanapali and Kapalua.  


It should be noted that Lahaina also includes the areas of Launiupoko and Olowalu.  The sales in Lahaina these last nine months, were largely in Launiupoko (15), though there were 2 sales up in Kelawea which were out of the burn zone.

    <description> <![CDATA[ 
MAUI OCEANFRONT HOMESMarket Update, January 2020





View Goals  1437 Front Street is an oceanfront home for sale in the heart of Lahaina, on historic front streetView More Information


Maui has several areas with oceanfront homes: West Maui, South Maui, North Shore, East Maui and Central Maui.  As you will see below, the home prices and activity tend to be highest in the resort areas of West and South Maui, and along the North Shore. 


There are broad fluctuations in price depending on whether the property is beachfront or oceanfront; whether it is on a rocky shoreline or cliffside without water access; and the age, condition and size of the home.  


Over the past five years, oceanfront home sales have consistently seen a volume of around 20/year, with a low of 13 sales in 2015, and a high of 25 sales in 2017.  Comparing 2019 with 2018, it's noteworthy that the number of sales is down 30 and the sales volume down 57.


Please note the 2019 statistics no longer include 6 sales in the Makena Resort by Discovery Land Co. that were reclassified in our MLS from Beachfront to Across the Street from the Ocean on 12/13/2019.  This removed $60,162,136 million from the oceanfront home sales statistics that were previously posted in the blog post on 11/30/2019.  That inventory had increased the average Days on Markets stat as escrow could only close when construction was complete.  In addition, the average Sales Price and SP/Sq. Ft. dropped.


It is also worth noting that oceanfront homes are selling at a lower percentage of the asking price than the prior year as well as with a longer average days on market.  This can mean great opportunities for buyers of oceanfront properties as the inventory has built considerably, with approximately 3 years worth of inventory. 


We are already starting to see more pending escrows with 8 homes pending now vs. 4 in 11/2019.  It is interesting to note that all but one of the pending sales is under $5,000,000, with a high sale pending at $10,880,000.

There is often a misperception that we see more sales in the Wailea/Makena Market.  What is important to note is that there are far fewer oceanfront homes in resort areas in West Maui than in Wailea/Makena.  For example, there are only 6 oceanfront homesites in Kaanapali's only oceanfront residential neighborhood, Kai Ala Place.  Similarly, there are just five oceanfront homesites in Kapalua Place, Kapalua's only oceanfront residential neighborhood.   Wailea/Makena are larger-scale resorts, with more oceanfront residential communities such as Keawekapu Beach, Maluhia, Makena Place, the Makena Beach Cottages, and Black Sands, as well as homes scattered along the Makena Coastline that aren't part of a formal subdivision.  Kihei's Halama Street is also a popular area with beachfront homes stretching along the shoreline.


The highest-priced listing on the island is located in the Kapalua Resort:  9 Bay Drive is an 8B/8.5 acre estate situated on 9.97 acres.  It is currently offered at $37,500,000, reduced from $49,000,000.   The highest asking price in South Maui is $27,498,000.


These compare with a high sales price of $27,000,000 for an oceanfront estate in 2011 in Makena.  7150 Makena Road is a 4B/5.5B home on 1.69 acres.  To date, the largest sale on Maui for a private residence that was actually across the street from the ocean, in Keauhou, Makena $41,750,000 in 2015 (not in MLS) .


It should be noted--with such a small sampling, the statistics can vary widely at any given time, and the above are MLS statistics.  Additional properties have changed hands privately and are not entered in MLS.  For more information on all areas of Maui read: Maui Real Estate Statistics.

Since it's development in 2005, the Villas at Kahana Ridge has become a popular choice for many full-time residents living and working in West Maui, as well as part-time residents.   Located just seven miles from Lahaina, between the Kapalua and Kaanapali Resorts, this quiet residential community is across the street from Kahana Gateway shopping center, close to restaurants, the Kapalua airport, and the beaches of Kahana.  A mix of two and three bedroom condominium floor plans, there are 117 residences in 8 buildings on 5 acres.


Villas at Kahana Ridge 213 is a ground floor, single-level condominium residence, with minimal steps to the entry.  One of the largest two bedroom floor plans, the spacious residence has been upgraded with tile and new wood flooring, fresh paint, and a new washer/dryer.  The oversized master bedroom suite allows for a sitting area or office. The private location is away from the busy roads and traffic noise, and the lanai looks toward a grove of banana trees.  The Villa comes with two designated parking spaces.  Per the house rules, a cat or dog up to 20 lbs. is permitted upon AOAO approval.
