New Hampshire Real Estate Market Information

In February 2026, 793 homes sold across New Hampshire, representing a 13% decrease from January and a 7% decline compared to February 2025. The drop reflects the typical winter slowdown in transaction activity as the market continues moving through the early part of the year.

The median sale price came in at $490,000, down 5% from January but 1% higher than February 2025. The median list price was $495,900, a 3% decrease month over month and 2% higher than last February. While prices pulled back slightly from January levels, year over year gains indicate that home values remain relatively stable across the state.

Homes sold for an average of 99% of the asking price, unchanged from both January and February 2025, reflecting continued balance between buyers and sellers even as overall activity slowed.

Total sales volume reached approximately $440.3 million, a 20% decrease from January and 6% lower than February 2025, primarily due to fewer closed transactions during the month. Homes spent a median of 21 days on the market, four days fewer than January but three days longer than last year, indicating a slightly faster pace than the prior month but still somewhat slower than the highly competitive conditions seen in early 2025.

Year to date, 1,706 homes have sold statewide in 2026, 3% fewer than at this point last year. While activity remains slightly behind last year’s pace, the market typically gains momentum as inventory and buyer demand increase heading into the spring selling season.
