They picked back up to the normal range by February but dropped back again in April. “I think a lot of this can be attributed to larger economic issues like the uncertainty in the stock market and global economics,” said Gretchen Osgood, broker and owner of Hawaiian Isle Real Estate. “It also has some roots in pricing…there is basically nothing under $400,000 left available in Kona and this prices a lot of buyers out of the market, even with historically low interest Condos in Kona fared better this winter season, although also muted in January and February they picked up nicely for March and April. “Let’s hope that trend continues since both houses and condos have some great inventory available,” she said.
