Dover NH real estate market showed some strong activity during 2007.  Average sales prices increased in homes and condos, average list-to-sell ratios stayed strong, and days on the market remained about the same as in the previous year.  The were fewer homes for sale, and yet there were more homes that sold in 2007 than 2006.

This certainly sounds like a fairly robust market to me!  Especially when you compare it to all the negative news media reports about how down and dour real estate is.

AT HOME IN DOVER NEW HAMPSHIRE - Dover is located at the southern tip of Strafford County, right between the Cocheco and Bellamy Rivers, and is part of the general Seacoast NH areas.

Dover NH was settled a few years ago, way back in 1623, and at that time, it was one of the first three communities established in NH.  Originally called Hilton's Point, after the person who led the group of Englishmen who landed at Dover Point, it was later named Dover after Dover, England.  The population back in the very first census poll was 1,998 residents in 1790.  Today, the population is just about 28,800.
