Top 3 months to watch

There are a few key times when more owners decide to sell their Kihei condos, especially when it comes to units that are in beachfront communities. I’ve analyzed 10 years worth of listing data (read about my data and methodology) to identify the months when the greatest number of units come up for sale.

November

This is the top month when it comes to consistency for most listings debuted. In 4 out of the last 10 years, the month of November ranked the highest with between 15 and 21 oceanfront condos brought on the market. The 10-year median for November was 14 listings.

January

Another reliable month with a 10-year median count of 14 listings. January ranks below November because there were only two occasions out of the last ten years when January had the top count for listings debuted.
