Along with the rest of the country, Maui's real estate market has been far more active than last year during the pandemic.  The number of sales has increased dramatically across all market sectors--homes, condos and land.  The median price has increased as well, in part spurred by oceanfront home and resort sales.  We are seeing fewer condominium sales than we did in July. However, it should be noted that inventory is down dramatically.

Maui Property Tax Rates 2020-2021

Note: This article was updated on July 1, 2020

The Maui County Council approved the new property tax rates for the July 1, 2020-June 30, 2021 Fiscal Year.
