The local real estate market has tiptoed into 2026 on a somewhat positive note. While some national markets have started to cool down, Maine is still holding strong with steady pricing year over year.
After a few years of a super competitive seller’s market—where limited inventory had buyers moving fast—things are shifting toward something more balanced. We’re seeing more homes coming on the market, buyers are taking their time to find the right fit, and overall, the market is settling into a healthier, more sustainable pace. Good news all around!
