New Hampshire’s Buy-Side Real Estate Market: Q1 2026 Analysis

New Hampshire Market Snapshot: Q1 2026

New Hampshire’s single-family market opened 2026 with shifting inventory levels. Active listings began January at 1,851 homes, pulled back to 1,797 in February, and recovered to 1,911 by March, a 3.2 percent gain across the quarter. Months of supply followed a non-linear path, opening at 2.7 in January, rising to 3.3 in February, then returning to 2.7 in March. The reading stayed well below the 6-month balanced-market benchmark in every month, finishing the period in firmly seller-favorable territory.

Median sale prices traced a similar irregular pattern. After opening at $520,300 in January, the statewide median pulled back to $505,800 in February before recovering to $528,100 in March, a 1.5 percent gain across three months. Days on market compressed steadily. The median measure opened at 65 in January, eased to 60 in February, and reached 57 in March, leaving homes spending notably less time on the market at the end of the quarter than at the start.

Year-over-year context sharpens the picture. January 2026 inventory of 1,851 homes was 9.3 percent above January 2025, and supply ran one-tenth of a month looser at 2.7 months versus 2.6. Q1 2025 supply held perfectly flat at 2.6 months in every month of the quarter, while Q1 2026 traced a broader curve, peaking 0.7 months above the prior-year reading in February before returning to a 0.1-month gap in March. By March, inventory was 9.0 percent above the prior-year reading of 1,754 homes, and the median sale price finished 2.2 percent higher than March 2025. Days on market widened year-over-year by 8 days in March, from 49 to 57. The quarter ran consistently looser than the same window in 2025.

New Hampshire’s Top 25 Buyer’s Agents and Teams: Q1 2026 Rankings

Agent Pronto/CINC has ranked New Hampshire’s top 25 buyer’s agents and teams based on total transaction volume in Q1 2026. This proprietary buy-side data reveals both high-volume operators and luxury specialists who dominate New Hampshire’s diverse real estate market.

What the Data Shows

New Hampshire’s top 25 spans a wide range of production paths. Three agents and teams operate with median prices under $500,000, eleven fall between $500,000 and $1 million, and eleven reach the $1 million threshold. Cheryl Zarella & Associates leads the rankings with seven closings at a $964,000 median, generating $10.5 million in total volume, the highest in the state. Adam Dow ranks second with 16 closings at a $392,500 median for $10.0 million in total, the highest closing count in the state. Anderson Mills & Associates ranks twentieth with 13 closings at a $387,500 median for $5.1 million, and The Zoeller Group ranks twelfth with 12 closings at a $503,940 median for $5.8 million. These operators reach the rankings through transaction counts well above the typical top-25 average, working at price points near or below the statewide median of $528,100.

A different model anchors the upper end of the rankings. Jodi Hughes ranks sixth with two closings at a $3.6 million median, generating $7.3 million in total volume, the highest median in the state. Maggie Barrett Campbell ranks tenth with two closings at a $3.2 million median for $6.4 million in total, and Anne Erwin Real Estate ranks fourteenth with two closings at a $2.8 million median for $5.7 million. Janet Sylvester, Jonathan D Levy, and R.Stephen Loynd each close two transactions at medians between $2.3 million and $2.7 million. Jerrod Mitchell occupies a hybrid middle position, ranking fifth with four closings at a $2.0 million median for $7.7 million in total, blending moderate transaction counts with luxury pricing.

The wide range of price points in the top 25 reflects New Hampshire’s mix of metro production and selective luxury submarkets. Median prices span from $387,500 to $3,640,000, and closing counts range from two to 16. Because the rankings are ordered by total sold dollar volume, agents and teams reach the list through three distinct paths: high transaction counts at price points well below the statewide median, moderate counts at mid-market or mid-luxury prices, or low counts at substantially higher per-transaction values. The dollar-volume ranking naturally favors luxury specialists, who can generate large totals from single-digit transaction counts, and that pattern is visible across the upper third of New Hampshire’s list, where eleven agents reach the rankings with medians at or above $1 million.

Conclusion

New Hampshire’s first quarter of 2026 saw inventory expand 3.2 percent, months of supply trace a February peak of 3.3 before returning to 2.7, and the median sale price rise 1.5 percent to $528,100, while remaining well below the 6-month balanced-market benchmark throughout. Within this environment, the top 25 buyer’s agents and teams closed 146 transactions across median prices ranging from $387,500 to $3,640,000. The list spans a clear high-volume leader, mid-market hybrids, and luxury specialists generating large totals from single-digit transaction counts, illustrating the range of paths to top buy-side production in New Hampshire.
