A genuinely fast, competitive market
Homes in Damariscotta sell for about 1% below list price on average and go pending in around 11 days, with median sale price per square foot up a striking 46.7% year-over-year (base record).
Likely low-volume dynamics
This record attributes Damariscotta's wide price spread to the town's genuinely small monthly sale volume, where a handful of unusually high- or low-priced closings can move reported medians sharply.
