Latest Trends in the Real Estate Market

The real estate market is always evolving, and New Hampshire is no exception. Recently, within the past few years we’ve seen a shift towards more rural and suburban living. People moving to New Hampshire are seeking larger homes and properties as remote work becomes more common. Other’s are seeking quieter spaces, natural beauty and a simple relaxing lifestyle from their busy day to day lives.  Here are some hot trends to keep an eye on:

1. Increased Demand for Single-Family Homes: With more families looking for personal space, single-family homes are in high demand. This is driving up prices, but also leading to some beautiful new developments.
2. Rising Home Prices: As the demand for homes grows, this has led to an increase in prices. While this might seem daunting, it’s also a great time to sell if you’re considering it. In May 2024 the median single family home price in New Hampshire was $525,000, an all-time-high 12.9% increase from May 2023. (To learn more read NEW HAMPSHIRE MONTHLY INDICATORS)
3. Sustainability Features: Buyers are becoming more eco-conscious, looking for homes with energy-efficient appliances, solar panels, and sustainable materials.

Making a Big Move? Here’s Some Advice!

Making a big move can be both exciting and a bit nerve-wracking. Here are some tips to help make your transition smoother:

1. Plan Ahead: Start planning as early as possible. Create a checklist of tasks to complete before, during, and after your move.
2. Declutter: Moving is a great opportunity to declutter your life. Donate or sell items you no longer need. This will make packing easier and your new home less cluttered.
3. Hire Professionals: If your budget allows, consider hiring professional movers. They can save you time, money and stress.  Message me if you need some businesses to call.
4. Get to Know Your New Area: Research your new neighborhood. Find out where the nearest grocery stores, hospitals, and schools are. Venture out, go for a hike, or simply take a walk around the area. This will help you feel more comfortable and at home from the get-go.
