2019 Maui Real Estate Year In Review
Overall, buyer demand was strong throughout the year, while some sellers were a bit timid to list their properties. The low supply slightly elevated prices and impacted the sales figures with slightly lower output. Mortgage rates continue to remain low which is encouraging buyers to explore their buying options. The lower interest rates helped buyers move on properties and increase affordability, which offset rising home prices to a degree.
With low mortgage rates and low unemployment, the current economy has hit a strong run of form making it the longest economic recovery on record. While new construction across the state has increased, there is still a severe lack of inventory for buyers. As long as demand continues to exceed supply, the real estate market should continue its healthy trend.
