West Hawaii, more specifically the Kailua Kona area has seen a 63% increase over last Octobers sales - on Single Family Homes. This doesn't appear to be some blip on the horizon, at least not from where I sit. We have 7 months in row now that have at least met, actually 6 have exceeded, last years sales . This is great news for both Buyers and Sellers, here's why.

Sellers: Great News, the buyers are back, and they are opening up their wallets! (sales up 63%)

Buyers: Great News, nice selection of inventory, and as a general rule of thumb we are back at 2003 prices (prices down by 9% from last October)
