The Nantucket Real Estate Market

For a relatively small island 30 miles out to sea, the local market is anything but small. In fact, over the last few years, annual sales volume have ranged from $1.3-$2 billion through 300-700 transactions. Single-family home sales range from $400,000 to $42 million+, with the average sale price around $4.9 million. A market as dynamic as Nantucket’s deserves regular, comprehensive analysis, which you’ll find here on our insights page. From charts and graphs to our monthly and annual reports, we cover the market from all sides. Take a look…

Monthly Report

After a strong start to 2025, with each month showing double-digit year-over-year gains, May marked the first month of declines. May 2025 transactions totaled $53.8 million through just 19 transactions, a decline of five percent and 21 percent, respectively, for the same month in 2024. Year-to-date, however, remains solid with $367 million across 101 property sales, a 66 percent gain in transaction volume and a 46 percent gain in dollar volume. While activity is higher in 2025 and inventory remained steady, most sales metrics trended weaker. We will be keeping an eye on pricing and value trends as we head into what is typically the busiest part of the season.

Annual Report

After two years of transaction and dollar volume declines following the market’s peak in 2021, Nantucket real estate saw a modest bump in 2024. Transactions increased by a nominal amount, edging just past 300 property sales, while dollar volume held a firm grip, surging well beyond the $1 billion mark once again.

On a quarterly basis, market activity followed a seasonal crescendo from one quarter to the next, with the fourth quarter posting more than double the activity of the first and second quarters. By year’s end, there were 311 transactions totaling $1.35 billion on the books, a respective increase of six percent and 17 percent from 2023 but less than half the overall sales and transaction volume we saw in 2021.
