Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Kailua real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Kailua is leaning toward sellers right now, with the market gauge at 35 and inventory relatively tight. Buyers have about 97 homes to choose from, and months of supply sit at 2.8, which keeps conditions from fully balancing out. Typical home values are high at about $1,502,000, more than double Hawaii County’s $650,000.
Price trends are pushing upward, which reinforces the seller tilt. The typical home value is up 9.04% from last year, and the median list price has climbed to roughly $1,697,000, jumping 21.21% month over month even as projections point to about $1,845,500 next month. At the same time, inventory has dropped 25.95% year over year and is expected to dip slightly to 93 homes, while new listings are down 31.37%, giving buyers fewer fresh options.
Momentum on the demand side is mixed, with pending sales down 36.36% year over year and homes spending a longer 97 days on market, up more than 67% from last year. Still, about 20% of recent sales closed above list, and sellers are receiving roughly 97.3% of asking price even with 22.68% of listings seeing price drops. With these competing signals, buyers need sharp pricing guidance and negotiation support, and sellers benefit from strategic listing advice, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent well suited to navigate the Kailua market.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Kailua offers residents a vibrant coastal lifestyle with pristine beaches, scenic mountains, a tight-knit community, and abundant opportunities for outdoor recreation.
Kailua stands apart from nearby Honolulu and Kaneohe with its slower pace, walkable core, and deep sense of local pride centered on the ocean and community events. Life here often revolves around the shoreline, from sunrise walks along Kailua Beach Park to afternoons of paddling at Kalapawai Market or catching windsurfers on the bay. Residents value access to the outdoors as much as they value long term neighborhood ties.
The town’s compact center offers local cafes like Morning Brew and small shops along Hahani and Kailua Roads, while families rely on neighborhood schools such as Kailua Intermediate School. Parks and trails, including the popular Kawainui Marsh trail, support an active, dog friendly lifestyle. Community programs at the Kailua District Park and events in nearby Waimanalo reinforce the close knit feel that many residents want to preserve.
Homes in Kailua range from beachside properties near Lanikai to older, tree lined streets and townhomes closer to the center of town. With limited inventory and steady demand, timing and preparation matter for both entering and exiting the market. Agent Pronto can connect you with a knowledgeable local real estate agent who understands Kailua’s unique character and can help both buyers and sellers plan each step with confidence.

“Justin was a fantastic agent. He worked hard to get a buyer rough away, then had to work through an unusual amount of challenges and kept both parties happy to finally get the property sold. Even though he was busy, he made sure to stay on task and get things done.”
“Thank you Sandra , Great job !”
“Work with Charles to buy our new home, was a great experience. He had an answer for all of our questions and concerns. He worked tirelessly, taking the time to show us each of the communities we were interested in. Along the way he was able to recommend other professionals to also aid us from insurance, lawyers and home inspection. The whole experience couldn't have been less stressful. I thank you, Charles for all that you did for us and our family.”
“Kathy was so patient throughout our home buying process and always there when we had questions or needed to see a property. Kathy went above and beyond to inform us about the property details we viewed, and was very communicative throughout the whole buying process. She is oustanding and we will be referring her to family and friends!”
“I was very satisfied with my home purchase with Mr. Tega - so much so , in fact, that I have already recommended him to friends and family.”
“A fantastic experience and an excellent outcome.”
“Consummate professional, caring, and knowledgeable. Would recommend her to anyone, and already have!! Pleasure working with her.”
“Kim was great. Very supportive. Always answered when I called or sent a text. Got a great price. I would 100% recommend and use her again.”
“Haley was great to work with! She went above and beyond including after the sale!”
“I previously listed my Concho, AZ property with another agent who was unable to sell it. I found Shawn who was able to sell the property in less than a years time. Shawn responded to all of my update requests and inquiries within a timely manner. Thank you Shawn for making this deal happen seamlessly!”
“She was very patient and explained everything to me. she simplified the process for me and never showed impatience with me. Even after the deal was closed and funded she was still available for questions. Thank you, Jordan.”
“My family and I are very grateful for everything Mrs. Dionne Chisolm has done for us. This is actually our second time working with her to buy a home, and our first time trusting her to help us sell one—and she absolutely delivered on all fronts. From start to finish, she was professional, knowledgeable, and always had our best interests in mind. Buying and selling at the same time can be stressful, but she made the entire process feel as smooth and manageable as possible. She was always available when we needed her, kept us informed every step of the way, and made sure we felt confident in every decision. Without a doubt, we would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. And when the time comes again, she’ll be our first call.”
“I was extremely nervous selling my first home. I had no idea what to expect or any of the processes. The River City Team was excellent in their communication with me. They went above and beyond to get my house marketed. If I buy or sell again I will definitely reach out to them.”
“We have used Keko Moore a couple of times. He takes care of everything and makes the process so easy. I highly recommend him for buying or selling either one. He is the best!”
“"Working with Maribel was an absolute pleasure from start to finish! She had a deep knowledge of the local market, and listened to what I was looking for. Her communication combined with local knowledge really helped make this transition in my life so much smoother. She made sure that I was aware of all the attributes/aspects of each house during the walk through. Also pointed out any deficiencies that I should be made aware of. This made looking for home more enjoyable but also from a financial standpoint what I had to keep in mind on a particular home. Further, she was incredibly responsive—answering texts and emails instantly—and truly cared about finding the right home for me. If you want an agent who is professional, dedicated, and goes above and beyond, I would recommend Maribel in a heartbeat!”
“Jeff was fantastic for our home sale. Smooth as butter. Would highly recommend.”
“Peggy Yanuzzelli is the best agent to work with. Her experience speaks for itself. She treats you like a friend.”
“Buying a house and moving are already stressful and difficult. Add to that my mom and dad were going to be moving in with me and my dad was on a fast decline from cancer. Jessie understood the assignment and did his best to quickly find a house and close within 15 days. And when my dad didn't make it, Jessie was empathetic and kind to me. I'll never use anyone else again for buying or selling a home. He has my business for life.”
“Sheri Barrette was a really important resource in my home purchase. She was able to get me in the property quickly, had great insight into the property value, and was able to get me an excellent final price. She gave me helpful context about the condo market and the availability of units like the one I purchased. She was also able to recommend other professionals involved in the purchase process who were just as knowledgeable and professional as she was. If I ever buy or sell a property, I would work with Sheri again. She was trustworthy and showed that she was working with my best interest.”
“Working with Jim was a great experience from start to finish. He was extremely helpful throughout the entire process and brought valuable insights about the Indianapolis market that made a real difference in my decision-making. What stood out the most was his communication style—consistent and reliable, but never overwhelming or intrusive. He made himself available whenever I had questions about the market, neighborhoods, or the home-buying process, while also giving me the space to do my own research and explore options at my own pace. He also shared his own experiences and perspective, which gave me added confidence when evaluating different opportunities. Overall, his guidance, responsiveness, and balanced approach made the process much smoother. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area.”
