How Maile Sells a Kona Home
Selling a home in Kona takes a plan. Here is how Kona born listing agent Maile Woodhall handles each sale.
Step 1. Price it from real Kona sales. You get a written pricing analysis built from recent sales near you.
Step 2. Know your number first. Before you list, you get a net sheet. It shows the State of Hawaiʻi conveyance tax, escrow and title fees, and any withholding, so you can see what you may take home.
Step 3. Get the home ready. Maile gives you a short list of what is worth fixing and what is not.
Step 4. Show it well. Professional photos, video, and drone footage come with every listing.
Step 5. Reach buyers everywhere. Your listing goes to buyers in Kona, on other islands, on the mainland, and abroad through the eXp Realty network.
Step 6. Hear from her every week. You get an update with views, saves, showings, and feedback.
Live off island? You do not need to fly in. Maile handles showings, inspections, and repairs here, and closing papers can be signed with a notary where you live. When a seller is not a Hawaiʻi resident, the State has escrow hold back 7.25 percent of the sale price. This is called HARPTA. It is a prepayment of tax, not the final tax, so ask a tax professional about a refund.
Agent pay is not set by law. It is agreed in writing before you list.

Kona Seller Questions
What does it cost to sell a home in Kona?
The seller pays the State of Hawaiʻi conveyance tax, escrow and title fees, the agent pay you agreed to in writing, and your share of property taxes and dues. If you are not a Hawaiʻi resident, escrow also holds back 7.25 percent of the price for the State. That is a prepayment of tax, not the final tax.
Do I need to be in Hawaiʻi to sell my Kona home?
No. Maile handles showings, inspections, and repairs here, and closing papers can be signed with a notary where you live.
How is a luxury home priced in Kona?
From recent sales and current listings in the same community and the ones buyers compare it to. View, ocean frontage, lot size, privacy, condition, and club terms all change the number. Price per square foot alone does not work at this level.
