How New Hampshire property tax compares
At 2.09%, New Hampshire sits above the national average of 1.1% — a difference of 0.99 percentage points, or about $280 a month on a median-priced home here. Across all 50 states and the District of Columbia, it ranks 3 from the top.
Statewide figures hide a lot. Effective rates are set at the county, city and school-district level, so two homes of identical value an hour apart in New Hampshire can carry very different bills. Check the county assessor’s published rate for the specific address before committing to a budget.
Closing costs in New Hampshire
Buyers typically pay 2–5% of the purchase price at closing, which on the New Hampshire median of $339,000 works out to roughly $6,780 to $16,950. That covers lender origination, appraisal, title insurance and settlement, recording fees, and prepaid escrow for taxes and insurance.
New Hampshire levies a real estate transfer or deed tax, which is collected at closing. Who pays it — buyer, seller, or split — is set by state practice and is negotiable in the purchase contract, so confirm the allocation before you sign.
Total interest over 30 years
On the $271,200 loan above at 6.5%, total interest across the full term comes to about $345,901 — roughly 128% of the amount borrowed. Adding $200 a month to principal would retire the loan years early and cut that figure substantially; the mortgage payoff calculator shows exactly how much.
