Maine's FHFA all-transactions House Price Index runs from 1975 through 2025. The state-level HPI, rebased to 100 in 2000, stood at 316.3 at the latest reading. Cumulative nominal appreciation since 2000: +216.3%.
The 2007–2011 housing crisis cut the Maine HPI by 14.4% peak-to-trough — from 165.8 in 2007 to 141.9 in 2012. The U.S. national HPI fell roughly 21% over the same window, so Maine's drawdown was milder than the national average.
The pandemic-era surge brought Maine's HPI from 179.9 in 2019 to 316.3 in 2025 — a +75.8% cumulative gain in 6 years, running above the national pace.
Maine sits in the Northeast census region of the United States. Long-run state-level home-price appreciation reflects regional employment patterns, in-migration flows, and supply constraints. State-level FHFA series can mask significant intra-state divergence — see the linked metro pages below for sub-state breakdowns where available.
Maine's metropolitan areas are not yet individually covered by the Housing Almanac. Metro-level FHFA data does exist for many smaller MSAs in this state — see the full metro index.

Methodology
The FHFA House Price Index is a weighted, repeat-sales index that measures average price changes in repeat sales or refinancings on the same single-family properties. The all-transactions index incorporates both purchase mortgages and refinance appraisals; the index is calibrated to the Northeast census region and rebased to 100 in the year 2000.
