Did Oahu really see a $65M home sale in 2025… and what does that say about the luxury market going into 2026? 🌴Oahu’s high-end real estate market turned heads in 2025, with the top 10 home sales all clearing $8M and several iconic properties trading along Kahala, Lanikai, Kailua Beachside, Diamond Head, and even the North Shore. From rare direct oceanfront estates to beach-access homes and large beachfront compounds, these sales reveal where buyers continue to place the highest value.The biggest takeaway is clear. Location, beachfront access, and lifestyle-driven properties are still dominating pricing, with Kahala firmly holding its place as Oahu’s luxury epicenter. As 2026 unfolds, the big question is whether we’ll see another outlier sale—or a shift in buyer behavior as inventory and...

People across the country look forward to retirement not just as a break from the workday routine, but as a chance to reshape their lifestyle. For many, that means moving somewhere new.

And the reasons retirees move remain consistent: tax advantages, affordability, climate, and access to recreation.Florida, Delaware, Wyoming, Arizona, South Carolina, and Maine all topped the list of retirement destinations, each offering its own blend of tax benefits, natural beauty, and lifestyle perks.
