SALISBURY – Home prices in Salisbury softened during the 12-month period ending June 30, 2026, while sales held steady and inventory remained limited.

The 12-month trailing median price for a single-family home, excluding condos, in Salisbury was $920,000 for the period ending June 30, 2026. That was 19% lower than the $1,136,000 median recorded for the 12-month period ending June 30, 2025, but 6% higher than the $865,000 median for the comparable period ending June 30, 2024.

A total of 52 homes sold during the 12-month period ending June 30, 2026, roughly four a month. The record on a 12-month trailing basis was set in May 2021 when 117 were sold in a year.

Sales were relatively stable compared with 44 homes sold during the 12-month period ending June 30, 2025, and 52 homes sold during the comparable period ending June 30, 2024.

Inventory of all listed residential properties for sale rose slightly to 21 in early July. High-end homes dominated with 15 homes listed for more than $1 million and only six below the current median price.

Furnished seasonal and academic rentals remained plentiful in early July with 32 homes available from $3,850 for the academic year to $65,000 for the summer. Eight houses are available on an annual basis, furnished and unfurnished, from $2,250 to $15,000 per month.

Labor Day: A celebration

Labor Day: A celebration

Recently a young friend exclaimed to me “Why do we have Labor Day anyway?”I found myself rebutting his genuine query with “Don’t you remember the dastardly working conditions of the 1800’s onward with the rising Industrial Revolution?” Of course he didn’t – most don’t.

The Department of Labor, so far still in existence, defines Labor Day’s purpose: “to honor the American labor movement and the works and contributions of laborers to the development and achievements within the United States.”Internationally, labor day has been celebrated since 1886, as International Labor Day or May Day to honor workers and support worker rights.
