What These Numbers Mean for Waialua Buyers and Sellers
The Housing Market Trends module above shows a Waialua market that currently favors buyers, and the competitive indicators explain why. With 8.0 months of supply against 16 active listings and just 2 homes sold in the latest month, demand is not clearing inventory quickly. A balanced market typically sits near five to six months of supply, so the current reading points to negotiating leverage sitting with buyers rather than sellers. Median time on market of 58 reinforces that pattern, reflecting a -49 days change in market time compared with last year.
Still, the picture is not uniformly soft. About 16.7% of homes sold above list price and 33.0% went off the market within two weeks, which means correctly priced, move-in-ready homes still attract fast, competitive activity. Only 35.4% of listings recorded a price cut, and the sale-to-list ratio held at 98.50%, so sellers who price to the current data are not being forced into deep concessions. Median price moved +36.0% year over year to $1,237,910, with a measured price per square foot of $991.22.
For a buyer, this combination supports patient offers below asking on listings that have lingered, while reserving stronger terms for fresh inventory. For a seller, the takeaway is to price against recent comparable sales from the start rather than testing the market. With 317 licensed agents active in the 96791 area, choosing one who reads these signals correctly is the difference between a smooth transaction and a stalled listing.

What to Look for in a Waialua Realtor
Choosing an agent in Waialua should go beyond name recognition or the largest advertising budget. The metrics that predict outcomes are transaction volume, repeat client patterns, and demonstrated skill negotiating in a market where 8.0 months of supply gives buyers real leverage. Among the 317 licensed agents serving the 96791 area, EffectiveAgents has ranked 20 based on verified performance. Erica Lehmkuhl at Realty By The Sea leads that group, with 81 closed transactions and $53.6M in all-time sales volume. That level of experience matters when the sale-to-list ratio sits at 98.50% and only 16.7% of homes clear above asking, because negotiating the final few percentage points on a home near the $1,237,910 median requires an agent who knows how local comparables actually price out. Across Waialua and the wider 96791 zip, agents who consistently earn strong client reviews tend to show a pattern of repeat and referral business rather than a handful of one-time closings, which is a signal worth weighing when you compare candidates.
How We Rank Waialua Real Estate Agents
Our rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data, not advertising spend. For every agent we analyze more than fifteen performance signals, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results (how far above or below list price an agent's clients actually close), price-point fit, and verified reviews. The agents shown first are those whose verified results put them at the top of the Waialua market today.
Agents cannot pay for placement in these rankings. The underlying data refreshes as new closed transactions are reported, so rankings shift with real market performance. Learn how we rank agents.

Waialua Real Estate Agent FAQs

The top-ranked agent in Waialua, HI is currently Erica Lehmkuhl at Realty By The Sea, with 81 closed transactions and $53.6M in verified all-time sales volume. EffectiveAgents ranks agents using measured performance data, including transaction history, sale outcomes, and client reviews, rather than advertising spend.

The best agent for you depends on your price point and timeline, so we recommend comparing several ranked profiles before deciding.
How were these Waialua real estate agents ranked?
Rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data. We analyze more than fifteen performance signals for every agent, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results, price-point fit, and verified reviews. Agents cannot pay for placement.
How many real estate agents are in Waialua?
Our data covers 317 real estate agents serving the Waialua area. The count represents agents with transaction activity recorded in our Waialua market data, not simply everyone holding a license.
What does the median sale price in Waialua mean for sellers?
Waialua's median sale price is $1,237,910 as of September 2026. Half of recent sales closed above that figure and half below. It is a useful baseline for understanding the market, but an experienced local agent will price your home against comparable recent sales in your neighborhood, not the citywide median.
How long does it take to sell a house in Waialua?
Homes in Waialua currently take a median of 58 to sell, and that figure reflects a -49 days change in market time versus last year. With 8.0 months of supply, timelines vary widely by pricing and condition. Well-priced, move-in-ready homes still move quickly, with 33.0% going under contract within two weeks. Overpriced listings, by contrast, sit longer and often require a reduction, as seen in the 35.4% of listings that recorded a price cut. Accurate initial pricing is the single largest factor in a faster sale.
Does it cost anything to use EffectiveAgents?
No. EffectiveAgents is free for home buyers and sellers, with no obligation to work with any agent we match you with.
Do agents pay to be ranked or featured?
No. Agents cannot pay for placement anywhere in these rankings. Positions are earned from verified transaction performance only.
What commission do Waialua realtors charge?
Commissions are negotiable and vary by agent, service level, and transaction. There is no set rate, and recent industry changes have made commission structures more flexible than ever. Discuss the structure directly with your agent before signing a listing or buyer agreement.
Should I use a local Waialua agent or a national brand?
The individual agent matters more than the brand on the sign. Offices within the same national franchise vary widely in performance, and the agent you hire, not the logo, prices your home, negotiates your contract, and manages your closing. A strong local agent brings firsthand knowledge of Waialua neighborhoods, pricing patterns, and buyer activity. Compare agents on verified local results such as recent sales, days on market, and negotiation outcomes rather than name recognition.
What questions should I ask a Waialua realtor before hiring them?
Ask how many homes they have closed in Waialua in the past year, what their average sale-to-list ratio is, and how much of their business is in your neighborhood and price range. Ask how they will market your home or find you listings, and how often they will communicate. Strong agents answer with specifics. Verified transaction data is the fastest way to confirm what you hear.
