New Hampshire is home to the gently rolling White Mountains, dairy farms, and is considered a suburb of Boston. It has experienced an influx of 50,000 new residents in one year's time and most of them moved to New Hampshire from another state. The state of this market is overall sound; but there is a drop in values and a rise in foreclosures. So this is really an ideal environment for investors. So how does New Hampshire handle its popularity? It's a state that takes its real estate seriously. New Hampshire real estate offers houses, farms and strip malls, but it is also quite well known for its seasonal activities. Here, camps, cabins, lodges, and golf courses abound. New Hampshire's climate and real estate go hand-in-hand. Real estate suited for the winter in New Hampshire is all about meeting the demand for skiing and other winter sports. This includes cross-country skiing and ice-skating on frozen lakes, among others. So there are many inns and resorts to accommodate. Owning a ski resort, inn, lodge, active wear retail outfitter, or equipment rental shop can be an excellent way to earn a living in the winter, while being able to travel to other locations at other times of year. Another popular business includes the multi-use, multi-seasonal golf course. This allows benefits year-round. Spring is the time when the famous "sap houses" or "sugar shacks" are opened to the public. Family-owned businesses allow customers to enjoy the process of taking maple sap and turning it into maple syrup, which is then served up with a visitor's dream fare—a waffle, ham, eggs, sausage, and any kind of breakfast pancake. Owning a New Hampshire sap house can offer the same lifestyle as owning an "iconic" Vermont inn. Summer is best known as the season of summer camps for kids and New Hampshire's Lakes Region offers swimming, kayaking, fishing, and other active outdoor activities for the whole family. Commercial New Hampshire real estate abounds in this area. Finally, the fall, one of the most popular seasons in the Northeast, means the leaves change to russet, burgundy, bright red, gold, and pumpkin orange. Many fall festivals and the changing landscape charm visitors from states like New Jersey and New York. The New Hampshire real estate investor's opportunities are endless.
