(Rolling Quarter: Aug–Oct 2025)

The Midcoast continued to show strong momentum this fall, with buyers staying active even as we edge closer to winter. The rolling quarter numbers offer a clear look at how Knox, Lincoln, Waldo, and Hancock counties performed from August through October. Statewide Maine had a calmer more balance intro into the Fall market. 

Knox County: Steady Strength

Units sold increased 9.32%, and the median price rose to $450,000 (+2.27%). Buyers remain responsive to homes that are priced thoughtfully and presented well, especially in towns like Camden, Rockport, and Rockland.

Lincoln County: Continued Standout Performance

Lincoln remains the leader in growth with a 22.06% jump in units sold. The median price adjusted to $471,500 (-9.33%), reflecting sellers who aligned their pricing with current conditions and saw strong results.

Waldo County: Balanced and Active

Sales rose 11.28%, with a slight median price shift to $350,000 (-1.41%). Waldo continues to attract buyers looking for value within reach of the coast, making it one of the more accessible county markets in the region.

Hancock County: Solid Demand, Stable Prices

Units sold increased 4.70%, and the median price held steady at $455,000 (+1.11%). Hancock’s mix of year-round and second-home demand continues to create a steady but thoughtful pace, where well-prepped homes capture attention quickly.

Local Takeaway

Buyers are active, but they are selective. Value, condition, and presentation are driving decisions across the Midcoast. As more first-time and VA buyers find pathways to homeownership, we’re seeing a healthier, more balanced market — one that rewards sellers who price strategically and prepare their homes thoroughly before listing.
