NHAR UPDATES

 
January 13, 2025

Price Increases Slowing 

The New Hampshire housing market continued to show resilience in 2025, with the median price of a single-family home reaching a record $535,000, a 3.9 percent increase over 2024. While prices continued to climb, the pace of growth slowed significantly, marking the smallest annual increase in statewide median price in the past decade.

NEW HAMPSHIRE MONTHLY INDICATORS

A total of 12,529 single-family homes closed in 2025, representing a 4.5 percent increase in sales compared to the prior year. Despite increased activity, affordability remains a major challenge for Granite State home buyers. The year tied New Hampshire’s lowest affordability level on record.

“It was a mixed bag for buyers in 2025,” said 2026 NHAR President Josh Greenwald. “We are seeing more homes on the market than in recent years, but prices continue to rise. We still don’t have nearly the inventory needed to make meaningful progress toward a balanced market, where buyers and sellers are on more equal footing.”
