Hampton, NH Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

Hampton produces a steady stream of closings but little consensus: sales over the last six months span a range wide enough that the median is a midpoint between different markets, not a going rate. The distribution below matters more than the headline.

The snapshot

• •Closings tracked, last 6 months: 250
• •Median sold price, last 6 months: $620,000
• •Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $426
• •Middle half of sales closed between: $398,000 and $775,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 250 closed sales in Hampton over the last six months, with a median closing price of $620,000. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $398,000 and $775,000. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. Across the 249 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $344 and $594 per square foot.

Where Hampton sale prices land

Medians hide the shape of a market. The distribution above covers the closed sales Resideline tracked in Hampton over the last six months that carry a usable sale date, trimmed to the 5th through 95th percentile, with the middle half of sales closing between $398,000 and $775,000. Among the 17 New Hampshire markets with a published band, Hampton's middle-half spread ($398,000 to $775,000) ranks 14th from the narrowest. Where your target property sits inside that spread matters more than the citywide median. Measured as the ratio of the upper to the lower quartile, its middle-half spread ranks in the 75th percentile of the 2,291 US markets in Resideline's national Market Watch set, on data as of November 3, 2026.

How long a sale takes here

• •Listed to under contract: a median of 24 days, across 108 Hampton closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
• •Contract to closing: a median of 24 days, across 96 Hampton closings Resideline tracked in the last six months

Both are measured from the closings themselves, not from listing inventory. Each sale is timed using its own listing and contract dates. That is why these counts are smaller than the 250 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Hampton angle

The citywide median does less work in Hampton than it would elsewhere, because the distance from $398,000 to $775,000 is wider than most markets we track. Width is the single most important thing to know before quoting a number for an address. When the middle half of closings covers a long stretch, $620,000 can be far from a specific property before anyone has looked at the property, and the half of sales outside the band extends the range further in both directions. 250 closings is a solid sample, which makes matching realistic. Hold property type steady, hold a size window steady, account for condition, then read the closings that survive. That set, not the citywide figure, is the basis of a defensible number. The lower half of the band is the wider of the two: $398,000 to $620,000 is a longer stretch than $620,000 to $775,000. Below the midpoint the tracked sales are spread further apart, so quote a range there rather than a single figure.

From market read to offer price

A spread this wide means the citywide number cannot price a specific address; the step that matters is the property-level read. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator, rehab cost estimator, BRRRR calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.

And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale and graded against the real closing price after it sells. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

Run any Hampton address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.
