New listings increased, with 336 single-family home listings, up 17.9%, and 739 condo listings, up 27.2% year-over-year. Active inventory also grew, rising 20.9% for single-family homes and 54.9% for condos.

"January's increase in new listings has provided buyers with more choices across price points and regions," said President of the Honolulu Board of Realtors.  "While demand remains steady, buyers are approaching transactions with more negotiation power, making it essential for sellers to understand market trends and position their properties competitively."
