The Southern New Hampshire real estate market continues to deliver opportunity for both buyers and sellers heading into the final week of June. Here is what the latest data tells us about the market right now, and what it means for your next move.
The Numbers That Matter
Our market is sending clear signals. State average home values are holding steady at $516,578, up 2.7% year over year. But here is where it gets interesting: Hillsborough County sits at $548,750, showing slightly softer momentum than spring, while Nashua continues its meteoric rise with a $514,000 median and an exceptional 10.6% year over year appreciation.
Homes are moving fast. Days to pending average just seven days across the region. Inventory has increased 19.6% since mid-2024, giving buyers more selection than they have seen in years. Yet we still sit at 1.4 months supply, which means sellers maintain solid footing in this market.
The Town-by-Town Story
Mont Vernon presents an interesting case. While the broader market appreciates, Mont Vernon prices have softened 6% over the past 12 months, settling at a $799,000 median. For buyers, that is an opportunity. For sellers, it is a moment to price strategically and position your home to stand out.
Western Hillsborough County towns like Peterborough, Jaffrey, Dublin, and Hancock are showing their muscle. Q1 2026 saw these communities outpace central county appreciation at 7.9%, attracting both investors and families seeking lifestyle and value.
Nashua continues leading the region in volume and appreciation. The combination of affordability, proximity to Boston, strong schools, and no state income tax makes it the market’s hottest destination.
What This Means for You
For sellers: Markets that move this fast require immediate action. Homes are pending within days. The window for getting your home positioned right is now. Price correctly, present beautifully, and you will see interest immediately.
For buyers: More inventory means more options. But it also means more competition from prepared buyers. Get pre-approved, know your neighborhoods, and be ready to move when you find the right home. In a seven-day market, hesitation costs.
The trick is not waiting for better conditions. It is working with conditions as they are right now. That is where we come in.
