For North Kona condos, the median was $547,500, up from $496,500 in August but down from $597,500 a year earlier.
In South Kona, only 6 homes sold, so the monthly median moves a lot. Over the 12 months ending September 30, 2026, the South Kona median across all property types was $550,000.

Sold price is not the same as your home's value
The median sold price tells you where the middle of the market is. It does not tell you what your home is worth. In Kona, two homes a mile apart can sell hundreds of thousands of dollars apart. The things that move value most here are:
Ocean view, and how much of it.
Elevation and distance to Kailua-Kona town.
Fee simple or leasehold land.
Lava zone, which affects insurance and lending.
County water or catchment.
Condition, permits and any unpermitted additions.
For condos, the monthly HOA fee and whether vacation rentals are allowed.
