53 homes closed in Hampstead in October, down 7% from October 2025 (57). The middle sale price was $487,500, in line with a year earlier ($495,500). A typical sale took 35 days to go under contract (27 a year ago), and sellers received about 97.2% of their first asking price.
Right now there are 212 homes for sale in Hampstead and 112 under contract. At the pace of the last 12 months (826 sales, about 69 a month), that is roughly 3.1 months of supply — a seller's market by the usual yardstick, where under four months favors sellers and over six favors buyers. It is not a market where everything sells: 306 listings expired or were withdrawn over the same 12 months, about 27% of all that came off the market, which is why pricing to the record matters more than the asking price down the street.
Where the sales were: Brookfield Branch (85 sold, $327,853 middle), Wyndwater (43 sold, $575,000 middle), Olde Point (36 sold, $667,500 middle), East Wynd (31 sold, $662,590 middle), Belvedere (30 sold, $404,900 middle), Magnolia Reserve (26 sold, $534,900 middle) led Hampstead over the last 12 months.
Of the 176 homes that closed in the last 90 days, the most were $300K–$500K (66); 53% sold for less than $500,000, and 17 sold for more than $1 million.
