Market Intelligence

The Flight to Quality: A Structural Shift.

The 2024-2025 fiscal period in West Hawaii marks a decoupling from national trends. While mainland markets cool, Kona's luxury sector ($3M+) faces an inventory crisis. We are seeing a specific migration of capital into Hualalai and Kukio from tax-heavy jurisdictions.

The "Mauka" Advantage: Buyers are increasingly prioritizing elevation. Properties in the 800ft–1,500ft range (Holualoa) are commanding premiums for their cooler temperatures and expansive coffee-belt views.

The Regulatory
Landscape

Navigating Hawaii County's zoning laws requires precise expertise. The value of an estate is often dictated by its permit eligibility.

"Is it STVR Eligible?"

 

Short Term Vacation Rental permits are now geographically restricted. Buying outside the resort node without existing registration limits you to 30-day minimum rentals. We verify all NUC (Non-Conforming Use) certificates.

 

SMA (Special Management Area)

Properties near the shoreline face strict permitting for renovations. We guide clients on what can (and cannot) be built within the SMA setback to protect your investment.

 

Ohana Zoning & Density

Maximizing compound value often involves constructing an Ohana unit (Guest House). We analyze septic capacity and zoning (Ag-5 vs. RS-10) to determine expansion potential.
