Median for homes / condos

Maui County figures from the Realtors Association of Maui and Title Guaranty, September 2026. Year to date, the single-family median is $1,219,000 and the condo median is $655,000.

Maui at a glance

Maui County covers Maui, Molokai and Lanai, but almost all sales are on Maui itself. Prices fell for single-family homes this year while condo sales picked up sharply, and condos are taking much longer to sell: the median condo took 199 days in September. Much of that is Bill 9, which ends nightly vacation rentals in thousands of apartment-zoned condos.

Maui’s regions

One-month medians move around a lot on small numbers of sales, so treat these September 2026 figures as examples of what’s selling, not as fixed prices.

Vacation rentals and Bill 9

Bill 9, signed Dec. 15, 2025, ends nightly vacation rentals in Maui County’s apartment-zoned condos, the buildings on what’s known as the Minatoya List. The deadline is Jan. 1, 2029 in West Maui and Jan. 1, 2031 everywhere else. Some buildings may be rezoned to new hotel districts and keep renting nightly, but on Sept. 22, 2026 the Planning Commission recommended that for only five of 48 properties. Two lawsuits challenging the law are pending.

If you’re buying a condo with rental income in mind, check the building’s zoning and status before you make an offer. Hotel- and resort-zoned condos aren’t affected.

Lahaina, three years on

The August 2023 fire destroyed 1,898 homes in Lahaina, about 45% of the town’s housing. As of Aug. 5, 2026, the county’s recovery dashboard showed 577 homes completed, 400 under construction and permits issued for 667. Front Street reopened to traffic on Aug. 1, 2026. Rebuilding lots and finished homes are both trading in Lahaina now, and each comes with its own permitting and insurance questions.

Property taxes

Maui County taxes property by how it’s used, and the rates for July 2026 to June 2027 vary a lot between an owner-occupied home and a vacation rental. Rates are per $1,000 of assessed value.

UseRate per $1,000
Owner-occupied$1.65 up to $1.5M; $1.80 to $4.5M; $5.00 above
Long-term rental$2.90 up to $1.5M; $5.00 to $3M; $8.50 above
Non-owner-occupied (second home)$6.25 up to $1M; $9.00 to $2.5M; $17.00 above
Short-term rental$13.00 up to $900K; $15.00 to $3M; $17.00 above
Source: Maui County Council Resolution 26-69, effective July 1, 2026.

Owner-occupants can take a $300,000 home exemption. Apply by Dec. 31 for the next tax year. Maui assesses at “highest and best use,” so a second-home condo in a resort area can be taxed at the short-term rental rate even if you don’t rent it. Ask before you buy.

Molokai and Lanai

Both are part of Maui County, with the same tax rates, but they’re very different markets: only a handful of sales a month. See our Molokai and Lanai pages.
