Wailea Golf Estates Market Update 2018

The Wailea Golf Estates is another community that sees little sales volume because of its price point and reluctance of owners to sell. The neighborhood is desirable to residents because of its private location in the Wailea resort and slight elevation which allows for commanding views over the Old Wailea Blue Golf Course and expansive ocean views.

With 5 home sold for a running sales volume of $13.5 million, it has been a productive year for the market where it typically only sees a handful of sales in the year. Of the home sold, 60% were sold within 3 months of coming to market, while the remaining 40% need a little over a year to sale. Days on market can vary widely and come down to how set on a lit price sellers are; some are more willing to negotiate, while others get fixated on maximizing their sale price.

Interestingly, 3 sales were on the lower end of the market with the most notable being 1 sale in the $1 million range. However, the sale in the $1 million price point is an outlier deal and was sold as an REO home with upgrades being necessary to remedy some interior damage/lack of care. On the high end of the market, the home sold is an absolute stunner with unobstructed views over the golf course and beyond towards the deep blue Pacific Ocean.

  • Number of Wailea homes sold: 5
  • Average sold price: $2,585,000
  • Median sold price: $2.7 million
  • Highest priced home sold: $4 million
  • Lowest priced home sold: $1,795,000
  • Number of homes in escrow: 0
