October 2009 Honolulu Condominium Market Report: Koolani

Summary
The number of recent sales and apartments currently for sale at Ko’olani is very, very encouraging.  I am very optimistic by these sales dynamics.  Look at the graph below and you’ll notice that two very positive trends continue:  sales are solid the number of apartments for sale is still falling.

Given that the number of apartments on the market has decreased to its lowest level in three years, not all floor plans are available as I write.  For example, if someone is looking for a 3-bedroom ’09 apartment, none are for sale.  In addition, a few other floor plans are not available on higher floors, so buyers should be patient, but be ready to act when something comes on the market.

Ko'olani Listed vs. Sold

The chart above shows the number of sales recorded each month vs. the number of apartments available for sale at the end of the month.  In the last six months, Ko’olani averaged 2.33 sales per month.  At that pace, it will take just over 5 months to sell the 12 apartments on the market.  When the building has less than 6 months of inventory, that indicates this particular condo’s market is strong.
