These Are the 7 Cheapest Cities in Maine to Buy a Home

Maybe you’re one of those people who enjoys surfing current homes for sale, because even though they are completely out of your budget, it’s fun to think, “Wow! Imagine what it would be like to live here!”. Maybe you're one of those people who's looking for a large waterfront property with coastal views, or maybe you're searching for a basic roof over your head that you can afford.

If you're in the same boat as a lot of Mainers, you might just be looking for a home where you can live comfortably and afford the monthly mortgage. According to Redfin, the median home sale price in Maine is around $410,600.
