Market Conditions Favor the Patient Buyer

As uncertainty swirls around Bill 9, a very different signal is coming from the real estate market: conditions are shifting decisively in favor of buyers. The latest RAM September 2025 Market Report shows a value opportunity for buyers that we have not seen in over 11 years.

The standout figure?  14.8 months of inventory for condominiums, placing this segment deep into an extreme buyer’s market territory.

Add to that a sharp 22.8% year-over-year drop in the median condominium price—now at $702,500, down from $910,000 in 2024—and buyers who were once priced out may now find new opportunities and leverage in the market.

A Shift from Seller to Buyer Advantage

The single-family segment is also turning. Inventory has jumped 23.7% year-over-year, bringing the months of supply to 7.9—past the threshold for a balanced market and squarely into buyer-favouring territory.

Prices for single-family homes have remained stable, with a median sales price of $1,300,000 (no change year-over-year) and an average price of $1,850,310, up 3.2% from last year. Homes are sitting longer, too, with the average days on market now at 136 days, up 13.3% from 2024.

This softening in activity and expansion of supply—combined with lingering economic concerns—means buyers now hold more negotiating power than they’ve had in years.

Strategic Timing for Buyers with Vision

For those who can navigate the uncertainty, this may be the opening they’ve been waiting for. Sellers are more flexible. Units are lingering. And the pressure to act quickly has eased.

Whether you’re a local buyer, an investor reevaluating strategy, or someone considering a second home or relocation, this is a moment worth watching—and perhaps acting on.

Watch the Numbers

Beyond the data points lies a deeper truth: Maui’s market is recalibrating. In a place where limited inventory and high prices once defined every conversation, there’s now breathing room—space for buyers to explore options, compare properties, and make informed decisions.

Yes, headlines are filled with uncertainty—from proposed regulations to national economic pressures—but opportunity often shows up quietly, in the numbers. Right now, the numbers are talking.

So, what can you do?

Stay engaged with the market. Talk to one of our local real estate experts who understands the shifting terrain. And above all, be patient—but be ready.

A New Chapter for Maui Buyers

This is a defining moment—not just for property prices or inventory charts—but for how people live, invest, and dream on this island.

If you’ve been waiting for a better entry point, this could be it. The window is open, and Maui is still one of the most desirable places to live, retire, and invest in the world. It’s anticipated that when interest rates go down, prices will go up.

Create your strategy. Watch the signs. Know your timing. Make your move.
