Market Trends & Insights:

High Buyer Interest for Affordable Homes
Homes in the $550,000 - $799,999 range are experiencing strong absorption, with homes being sold quickly and more properties pending than actively listed. This price range is currently the most competitive on Ono Island.
Luxury Homes Still Move, But Slower
For homes priced $1.5 million to $2.99 million, the absorption rate is moderate. There is buyer interest, but the homes tend to stay on the market for longer periods compared to the lower price ranges.
Slower Sales in Ultra-Luxury Market
Homes priced $3 million and above are seeing slower sales cycles, with only a few homes in this segment closing in the past 30 days. The ultra-luxury segment remains a niche market, and high-net-worth buyers are taking longer to make decisions.
Pending Listings
Pending sales have remained strong in the $595,000 to $1,139,000 range, with pending listings showing interest across various property types. This reflects continued demand for homes with boat access and waterfront views.

Predictions for the Next 30 Days:

Continued Demand for Lower-Priced Homes
The $550,000 - $799,999 price range will likely continue to see quick absorption. Buyers seeking entry-level homes or vacation properties will maintain strong demand, especially as we enter peak summer months.
Steady Sales for Mid-Range Homes
Homes priced $800,000 - $1.5 million will continue to sell at a moderate pace. Sellers may need to adjust prices or offer incentives for quicker sales in this price range.
Luxury Market Slows, But Remains Resilient
Luxury homes priced over $3 million will continue to see slower absorption. Sellers in this segment may need to be patient, as these homes appeal to a more selective group of buyers.

Conclusion & Recommendations

It is important to remain aware of the trends in both the luxury and mid-range markets. If you’re looking to list homes priced above $2 million, be prepared for extended DOM and consider price adjustments or incentives to appeal to high-end buyers. For homes in the $600K to $1.5 million range, maintaining competitive pricing will help maintain steady interest and quicker sales cycles.
