The North Kohala Real Estate Update for Q2 is for the majestic area located at the northern tip of the Big Island of Hawaii. It is home to the two small towns of Hawi and Kapa’au. Hawi is most famous for being the bicycle turnaround point for the annual Ironman World Championship held each 
October (postponed until February this year), and its charming downtown area contains many small shops and restaurants, including the famous Bamboo Restaurant. Hawi is also the 2nd office location of Hawaii Luxury Real Estate.
The other small town, Kapa’au, also contains a small downtown area with assorted shops and cafes and is home to the original King Kamehameha I Statue. A little farther south down the coast is where the gated, upscale communities of Kohala Ranch, Kohala By-the-Sea and Kohala Waterfront are located.
North Kohala contains miles of pastoral, undeveloped land, as well as a variety of beautiful homes, from small plantation homes to large estates, many with stunning ocean views. The southern end 
of North Kohala contains the gated communities of Kohala Ranch, containing many luxury homes with large lots, as well as many acreage lots where you can build your own Hawaiian dream home. The most alluring character of the Kohala Ranch area is that virtually every home and lot features panoramic ocean views.

Analysis: The North Kohala Real Estate Update for Q2 shows us that sales of both single-family homes and vacant land in North Kohala have continued to be strong. Even with these strong sales, inventory levels have still managed to rise a little over last quarter. The drop in the number of homes in escrow could be a leading indicator of a slowdown in sales.
