Tourism Cycle Impacts Honolulu Real Estate

The Honolulu Advertiser is reporting that hotel occupancy rates have improved.

“After 18 consecutive months of declines in the numbers of visitors staying in Hawaii hotels, September brought a small gain in hotel occupancy — up 1.6 percentage points to 64.6 percent.”CLICK HERE TO READ THE HONOLULU ADVERTISER ARTICLE

Big things can begin with little steps. Tourism is one of the economic forces in Hawaii and it must improve for Honolulu real estate values to rise.  Time will tell if this blip is the beginning of a trend or just a temporary bump.  Keep in mind that the nature of a cycle is that it will change.  Upward cycles will turn downward and vice versa.  If you ask me, for long-term investors, now is a very good time to buy.

    Only problem is that won’t help the hotel industry if visitors buy their own places!
