Tuftonboro, New Hampshire Residential Market…A Look Back

Tuftonboro residential properties report a modest increase in market activity for 2011, while the average price of a home drops 33%. Successful transfers up slightly over the past two years, while the time it takes to market a home increases. Today’s sellers remain motivated in hopes for positive signs in the global, national and local economy that would produce willing and qualified buyers to absorb the inventory. Tuftonboro’s active listings contain enough inventory for the next year and a half, if today’s levels remain the same.
