Again, despite the distressed economy, residential home purchases continue to increase. (See article below to compare with October report.) Although Kauai land sales continue to struggle because of the difficulty to obtain financing for vacant land, November sales increased, compared to last month . Kauai’s condo market sales continued to do very well.
Below are the percentage of sales (by district) based on the total number of Kauai real estate sales for the month of November 2011:
Kauai residential homes: Koloa & Kawaihau districts (tied at 31%), Hanalei district 21%, Waimea district 12% , Lihue district 5%
