The higher-end housing market in New Hampshire continues to expand at a remarkable pace. The number of single-family homes selling for more than $1 million has more than doubled over the past five years and now represents approximately 15% of all home sales statewide. From May 2025 through April 2026, there were 1,199 million-dollar home sales across New Hampshire, compared to 542 during the same period five years earlier — a 121% statewide increase.

While Rockingham County continues to lead the state in total such sales with 464 transactions, Hillsborough County has experienced some of the most dramatic growth, with million-dollar sales increasing 373% over the past five years. Strafford County had 10 such sales five years ago, and 64 over the past 12 months. The trend highlights how higher-end home sales are no longer limited to traditional coastal or vacation markets, but are increasingly occurring throughout southern and central New Hampshire as demand and home values continue to rise. The lack of inventory is pushing home prices at all price points higher

The latest U.S. housing report from the National Association of Realtors shows prices continued to rise in April, with the median home price in the country at $417,700. In New Hampshire, the median home price is even higher at $560,000

"I think that people realize that things are not going to get any better in terms of prices," said Joanie McIntire, 2024 President of NHAR. "We're not going to see a big price drop because our inventory is still so, so tight."

In 2012, the state peaked at nearly 13,000 homes on the market, but that number has slowly dropped over the years.

In April, New Hampshire had 1,979 homes on the market, a number McIntire said should be closer to 8,000.

Over the past 12 months, the median sales price for a single-family home in New Hampshire reached $540,000 — a record level statewide.

But that number only tells part of the story.
Communities like Bedford, Portsmouth, and Windham ranked among the highest-priced markets and had a lot of closed sales, while towns such as Sugar Hill, Kensington, and Center Harbor saw far fewer sales — in some cases averaging barely one closing per month. The takeaway? The New Hampshire housing market can vary dramatically town by town. Curious what homes are selling for in your town?

March saw just 1.4 months of single-family housing supply in New Hampshire.

Months supply is calculated by taking the number of homes for sale at the end of the month and dividing it by the average monthly pending sales over the past 12 months.

With inventory this low, both buyers and sellers need to understand what’s happening at the local level because conditions can vary significantly from town to town.

Only a REALTOR® can give you the insight and edge you need in today’s market.

Home prices are still rising but not everywhere the same.

In Q1 2026, the median single-family home price in NH increased 3.9% statewide compared to Q1 2025. But the story varies by county:

Prices declined in Coös, Sullivan & Hillsborough
Prices rose well above average in Carroll, Cheshire & Grafton.

Rockingham County median sales price of $650,000 remained unchanged.

Market trends also shifted town to town.

That’s why local expertise matters. A REALTOR® can help you understand what’s really happening where you want to buy.

“These numbers highlight a market that may be in transition,” said Josh Greenwald, president of the NHAR. “While the March data point to some moderation in price growth, the quarterly trend shows that demand still continues to outpace supply, keeping upward pressure on home prices.”

In March, the median sales price for a single-family home in the state reached $530,000, marking a 1% increase compared to the same time last year. It is the smallest year-over-year gain since May 2023, according to data from the New Hampshire Association of Realtors (NHAR).

New Hampshire's housing market shows signs of stabilizing, but prices remain high. Median sales price reaches $530,000, indicating continued demand.
