Housing trends 2026: from the ground up. Housing trends 2026: from the ground up. As New Hampshire grapples with its housing shortage, legislators at the state and federal levels have moved to increase the supply by tempering zoning regulations, adjusting funding programs and encouraging new development. Meanwhile, home prices continue to rise, interest rates remain high, and inflation nips at every gain. What parts of the state are seeing the most success? How are local land use boards responding? And is there any relief in sight for buyers staring down a $600,000 median home price this year? In this seminar, our panel of experts from Sheehan Phinney, New Hampshire Housing, and The Stabile Companies will address the latest trends on land use and development, how zoning disputes are playing out in the courts and what innovations have shown the most promise.

As New Hampshire grapples with its housing shortage, legislators at the state and federal levels have moved to increase the supply by tempering zoning regulations, adjusting funding programs and encouraging new development. Meanwhile, home prices continue to rise, interest rates remain high, and inflation nips at every gain. The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is the most significant federal housing legislation enacted in decades, containing a wide range of reforms designed to modernize housing programs and expand housing opportunities nationwide. As the last quarter of 2025 foretold, M&A activity in 2026 means dealmakers can expect to pivot on the way to making deals happen. Join a panel of experts, moderated by Sheehan Phinney, who can share what buyers and sellers are looking for, what financing looks like and how long it's been taking for deals to close.

How employers address mental health in the workplace has a profound impact on employee well-being, company culture and the bottom line. This webinar will address the legal, ethical, clinical and practical considerations behind mental health in the workplace. New Hampshire communities are grappling with housing shortages, rising costs and increasing demand. This webinar will highlight findings from New Hampshire Housing's new guide to accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and how they fit into the broader housing landscape. What happens to your business if you're suddenly not there to run it? For too many business owners, the honest answer is: no one really knows, until it's too late. In this NH Business Review webinar, experienced legal and financial advisors will walk through real-world scenarios where unexpected death or incapacity triggered chaos: forced sales, collapsing valuations, family distress, and millions of dollars lost to unnecessary taxes and rushed decisions. Artificial intelligence is moving faster than the rules meant to govern it and is being integrated into businesses' software stacks more deeply every day. That means every business needs to understand the legal implications of using AI. On January 22, NH Business Review will present a practical webinar on how to navigate an AI regulatory environment that is fragmented, shifting, and sometimes contradictory.
