Are Wahiawa home prices going up or down?

Holding steady. Through the first nine months of 2026, single-family homes in the Honolulu Board of REALTORS' Wahiawa area sold at a median of $836,000 on 46 sales, up 1% from $830,000 a year earlier. In September 2026, 8 homes sold at a median of $753,500, compared with $767,000 a year earlier. Condo resales are few: 17 for the nine months at a $330,000 median, up 6%, and none closed in September. The Board's October area report had not been released when I updated this page. Island-wide, the Oahu single-family median in October 2026 was $1,150,000, so Wahiawa remains well below the Oahu median.
The Board's Wahiawa area is tax map zone 1-7-1 to 1-7-7, which takes in Wahiawa town, Wahiawa Heights and Whitmore Village. The live charts on this page use the MLS city of Wahiawa. Because this is a small market, a few sales can move the monthly median a lot, so I lean on the nine-month numbers. My Wahiawa real estate guide covers the town.
| Single-family, Jan–Sep | Condos, Jan–Sep | |
|---|---|---|
| Closed sales | 46 (53 a year earlier) | 17 (19 a year earlier) |
| Median price | $836,000 (up 1%) | $330,000 (up 6%) |
| Median days on market | 14 (40 a year earlier) | 27 (33 a year earlier) |
| Share of original list price received | 100.0% | 97.6% |
| New listings | 52 (down 38% from 84) | 24 (22 a year earlier) |
| Pending sales | 51 (down 29% from 72) | 16 (18 a year earlier) |
| Active listings, end of September | 12 (same as a year earlier) | 5 (same as a year earlier) |
The real story is fewer sellers
Prices did not fall, and the homes that sold went faster and closer to full price than last year: a 14-day nine-month median at 100.0% of the original list price. What changed is supply. Only 52 single-family homes were newly listed from January through September, down 38% from 84, and sales fell along with it, to 46 from 53. With 12 houses on the market at the end of September, buyers here are often waiting for the next listing rather than choosing among many.
By neighborhood, January–September 2026
From the Board's MLS neighborhood summary: Wahiawa Area, 25 single-family sales at $836,000; Wahiawa Heights, 17 at $870,000; Wahiawa Park, 2 at $769,500; and Whitmore Village, 2 at $602,000. Condos: Wilikina, 8 sales at $337,500; Wahiawa Heights, 7 at $410,000; and Whitmore Village, 2 at $312,500. Treat the very small counts as a rough guide, not a price list.
Buying in Wahiawa
Wahiawa is one of the lower-priced single-family markets in Central Oahu. Compare its $836,000 nine-month median with $1,040,000 for the MLS Central Region as a whole. The catch is choice. With so few listings, set up a saved search so you see new ones the day they hit the market, and have your financing ready. Condos are an even smaller pool, with 5 on the market at the end of September.
Selling in Wahiawa
Low new-listing volume means less competition for your home. Sellers received a median 100.0% of the original list price for the nine months. Still, in September the median took 34 days, so a well-prepared listing at the right price matters. Because there are few comparable sales, pricing needs care. I look at recent sales on nearby streets and adjust for condition rather than relying on the area median. For a pricing review, call (808) 201-3577.
