Good to know
Hawaiʻi seller essentials
A few Hawaiʻi-specific items to plan for. This is general information, not legal or tax advice — we’ll help you bring in the right professionals early.
Seller disclosure statement
Hawaiʻi law requires sellers to disclose known material facts about the property in a written disclosure statement. We’ll help you complete it carefully and on time.
HARPTA withholding for non-residents
If you’re not a Hawaiʻi resident, state law (HARPTA) generally requires 7.25% of the sales price to be withheld at closing unless an exemption or waiver applies. Foreign sellers may also be subject to federal FIRPTA withholding. Talk to your tax advisor early.
Conveyance tax and closing costs
In Hawaiʻi, sellers customarily pay the state conveyance tax, plus their share of escrow fees. We’ll estimate your net proceeds before you list, so there are no surprises.
Selling a homestead lease
Hawaiian Home Lands leases can only transfer to qualified native Hawaiian beneficiaries, with DHHL approval. We’ll help you understand the process and timeline before you start.
