Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
Homes in Kalihi-Palama are spending a median of 74 days on the market in this rolling three-month view, noticeably faster than the triple-digit days seen at the end of 2025. This quicker pace aligns with the area’s seller’s market status, even though conditions are not as tight as in some past periods.
Home values in the neighborhood have moved lower year over year, with the typical home value down sharply compared with last spring, while the broader city of Honolulu has seen modest price growth. At the same time, median list prices in Kalihi-Palama are up strongly from a year ago. That gap between sale values and asking prices highlights the importance of careful pricing.
Inventory has thinned, with active listings down from last year and months of supply dropping to 3.9, well below Honolulu’s 8.1 months. Even with fewer new listings entering the market, buyer activity has picked up, as homes sold and pending sales are both higher than a year ago. A growing share of properties are selling above list and the average sale-to-list ratio is close to 99 percent, suggesting buyers still need to come in with solid offers. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an experienced local agent who understands these shifting conditions and can guide them through their next move.
