## City and County of Honolulu context

The City and County of Honolulu covers all of Oahu, so one set of county offices handles zoning, permitting, and real property tax for the whole island. Hawaii allows both judicial and non-judicial foreclosure; most residential files use the non-judicial power of sale under HRS chapter 667, with notice published before the auction. Probate matters go through the First Circuit Court's probate division in downtown Honolulu, and deeds record at the state Bureau of Conveyances, which keeps two registries side by side: the Regular System and the Land Court system. InTym Properties pulls both records on every house before we write the offer.

The cost side is mostly state-level. Hawaii charges a conveyance tax of $0.10 to $1.25 per $100 of sale price, graduated by value and by whether the buyer can claim a county homeowner exemption; a sale to an investor falls in the higher tier, and the seller customarily pays it through escrow. The conveyance tax certificate files with the deed at the Bureau of Conveyances. Leasehold condos, termite damage, single-wall construction, and cesspool conversion deadlines all show up as line items in the walkthrough math. The city pages below carry their own median prices, days on market, and trends.

The public records double as a legitimacy check for any company that offers to buy your house. The entity name on its contract should exist on the Hawaii DCCA Business Registration Division registry, deeds and liens it records appear at the Bureau of Conveyances, and a licensed Hawaii escrow and title company can confirm whether it actually closes files. The clause to look for in any offer is 'and/or assigns': it means the signer plans to sell your contract to someone else rather than buy your house.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which parts of Oahu do you buy in?

Honolulu, East Honolulu, and East Kapolei are listed below, and we buy anywhere on the island, including Kailua, Kaneohe, Mililani, Pearl City, Ewa Beach, Waipahu, Haleiwa, and the North Shore. If your area is not listed, email hello@intymproperties.com or call/text (650) 540-1854.

### How does foreclosure work on Oahu?

Hawaii allows both judicial and non-judicial foreclosure. Most residential files run the non-judicial power-of-sale route under HRS chapter 667: the lender or its representative publishes notice and auctions the property on a set timeline. You can sell any time before the auction; the proceeds pay off the lender and stop the sale.

### What does it cost to sell a house in the City and County of Honolulu?

Hawaii's conveyance tax runs $0.10 to $1.25 per $100 of sale price depending on value and the buyer's homeowner-exemption status, and the seller customarily pays it through escrow, alongside escrow and recording fees and prorated county real property tax. Your written offer shows every cost line by line, including which of those InTym Properties covers, before you sign.

### My property is in probate at the First Circuit Court. Can I still get an offer?

Yes. InTym Properties makes a written offer now and closes when the probate division gives the personal representative authority to sell. Your attorney sets the real timeline.

### How fast can you close in the City and County of Honolulu?

As soon as two to three weeks if title is clear, longer if you need it. Hawaii escrows run slower than the mainland norm, and a financed Oahu sale runs months once days on market meets a 45-to-60-day close; the InTym Properties version is one walkthrough, one written offer, one date you pick.
