Kauai Home Price Trends

 From January 2024 through December 2025, Kauai home prices largely stabilized following the rapid appreciation of previous years. Price movement varied by district and property type, with predictable seasonal patterns remaining in place. Reviewing long-term Kauai real estate market trends shows gradual pricing adjustments rather than sharp corrections.

Kauai Sales Activity

Sales activity across homes, condos, and vacant land fluctuated throughout 2024 and 2025. Changes in interest rates, available inventory, and buyer demand contributed to uneven monthly transaction volume. Historical Kauai real estate statistics from this period help differentiate seasonal slowdowns from broader market shifts.
