The price of homes reached a record high for the month of June in Maine.

New data from the Maine Association of Realtors shows the median price of a home reached $436,000 across the state, which is a significant increase ( 2.59 percent) from June of 2025.

The number of home sold also increased by 7.3 percent over a year ago.

“The highest statewide for-sale inventory in 70-months (5,667) resulted in a strong sales period during June,” said Maine Association of Realtors President Judy Oberg. “Though market conditions do vary by region across our state, we continue to see high demand and low for-sale inventory in some markets. This activity pushed the statewide median sales price to $436,000 in June—a new historic high.”

The most expensive homes in the state continue to be in Cumberland County, where the median price rose to $610,000.

The biggest price increase from a year ago was in Oxford County, where prices rose 18 percent to $370,000.

Prices dropped in Aroostook, Knox, Lincoln, Piscataquis, Waldo and Washington Counties compared to a year ago.

The lowest median prices continue to be in northern Maine’s Aroostook County at $178,750.

The National Association of Realtors today reported a national sales increase of 3.3 percent from last June, and an MSP increase of 1.8 percent to $446,400.
