So, how are condo sales so far this year? Looking at January sales, there was a total of 21 condos sold at an average sales price of $191,055 – up from 2011’s price.  

The range in sales prices for Kona can run quite wide, starting at leasehold studio condos and going up to luxury resort condos at Hualalai. In January, the lowest priced condo was $23,000 for a studio in Kona West, while the high-end price went to a Villas at Keauhou Estates with a sales price of $748,500.

As you can see, distressed property sales – for either short sales or bank owned condos – was about 50% of the total sales coming in with 11 sales.
