Portsmouth NH Tugs by Monika McGillicuddyPortsmouth New Hampshire Lifestyle and Real Estate

As many of you know Jay and I enjoy exploring New Hampshire and love sharing the special places we find with you all via video or photos.

After meeting customers in our Portsmouth office on Maplewood Ave, we decided to explore and ventured around Portsmouth for an impromptu photo walk.

Portsmouth is an awesome city to explore and a photographers delight… even wanna be photographers like us find it amazing and mesmerizing. Our timing was perfect, after a quick bite to eat we walked down to the Strawberry Bank area and took photos and videos of the Memorial Bridge and then walked around and admired all the old historic buildings until we got to the docks by the Sheraton Hotel where we caught the setting sun gently kissing some tug boats and buildings. It was picture perfect!

Rockingham County New Hampshire Home Sales for 2010 vs 2011

Articles in this Series Rockingham County Home Sale Statistics

  1. Rockingham County New Hampshire Home Sales for 2010 vs 2011
  2. Rockingham County Home Sales 2008 vs 2009
  3. Rockingham County Real Estate Home Sales April 2011 vs 2012

Winter in NHRockingham County New Hampshire Home Sales for 2010 vs 2011.

We are now a few days into 2012 and hopefully all the real estate offices have posted their sold data for this year end report. We are looking at residential homes sold from the year 2010 versus the year 2011. As I write this I am predicting that the number of sales will be up and the sold prices will be down. Days it took the homes to sell will be longer compared to 2010.

Rockingham County Home Sales 2010 vs 2011

Price$/Sq.Ft.Days on Market
TotalAverageMedianAverageMedianAverageMedian
Sold in 2010 2419$314,139$266,800$946$136160118
Sold in 2011 2547

$300,152$250,000$1,117$129164123

It looks like I was right on the number of homes sold. Looks like home sales in Rockingham County were up 5% compared to 2010. Prices were down approximately 4.5%. I wonder with prices being down like they are that if this is a direct correlation with the sales increase during the year. It makes sense as the sales were up in the 3rd quarter as the chart below will show you.

Rockingham County Home Sales 2010 vs 2011 3rd Quarter

Price$/Sq.Ft.Days on Market
TotalAverageMedianAverageMedianAverageMedian
Sold in 2010 3rd 1/4 573 $330,836$269,000$148$134165136
Sold in 2011 3rd 1/4 599

$284,247$239,900$1,126 $125164131
Sales increased in the third quarter over 2010′s third quarter by 4.3%. Prices dropped 14.1% compared to the third quarter in 2010.  Average days on market were steady and we feel 2012 will be even better but prices may still decline and interest rates will hopefully stay low.

We’ll be doing our town year end reports shortly so be sure to check back.
