Cumberland County’s condominium market showed a strong rebound in March 2026, particularly in pricing and sales activity. The median sales price rose to $519,175, reflecting gains both year-over-year and month-over-month, while the median price per square foot climbed to $374.

Sales activity surged during the month, with 70 closed sales representing a significant jump compared to both last year and the previous month.
