Dennis is one of Cape Cod's most active single-family markets, and the numbers so far in 2026 show a town that's not just holding steady — it's picking up pace. Year-to-date, 100 single-family homes have sold in Dennis, with an average sales price of $936,147.40 and an average price per square foot of $575.87. Sales have ranged widely, from $301,000 up to $3,300,000, reflecting everything from modest inland homes to premium waterfront properties. Compared to the same point in 2025, both volume and price are up — a signal that Cape Cod's momentum is building heading into the second half of the year.
The Headline Numbers
- 100 single-family homes sold in Dennis year-to-date (through July 14, 2026)
- Average sales price: $936,147.40 — up from $861,632.16 in 2025
- Average price per square foot: $575.87 — up from $541.04 in 2025
- Sales price range: $301,000 – $3,300,000
- Year-over-year sales volume: +6.4% (100 homes in 2026 vs. 94 at this point in 2025)
- Year-over-year average price growth: +8.65%
What Stands Out — and What It Means
Volume is up, not just price. A 6.4% increase in closed sales — from 94 to 100 homes at this point in the year — tells us Dennis isn't just seeing higher prices on fewer transactions. More buyers are actually closing. What it means: demand is broad-based, not concentrated in a handful of high-end deals skewing the averages.
Price growth is outpacing typical seasonal drift. An 8.65% jump in average sales price and a 6.44% increase in price per square foot both point to real appreciation, not statistical noise. What it means: sellers who priced conservatively based on 2025 comps may be leaving money on the table in today's market.
The price range is enormous — and that's normal for Dennis. A spread from $301,000 to $3,300,000 reflects Dennis's mix of inland starter and mid-range homes alongside premium waterfront and near-water properties. What it means: buyers need to know which "Dennis market" they're shopping in — the averages blend very different product types, so a single town-wide number can be misleading without context.
Cape Cod's broader momentum is showing up at the town level. The Cape Cod market overall feels busier in 2026 than it did in 2025, and Dennis's numbers back that up directly. What it means: if you've been waiting for the market to "cool off" before buying or listing, the year-to-date data suggests the opposite trend is currently in play.
What This Means for Sellers in Dennis
If you're considering listing in Dennis, this is a market where 2025 comps are already outdated. With average price per square foot up over 6% and sales volume climbing, homes are moving in a stronger pricing environment than a year ago. Sellers should have their homes evaluated against current 2026 data — not last year's closed sales — and should be prepared for competitive interest if priced accurately for today's conditions. Given the wide price range in Dennis, an experienced local pricing strategy matters more than a generic town average.
What This Means for Buyers in Dennis
Buyers should come in with financing fully lined up. A market moving 6.4% more volume than the year before, with rising prices, rewards buyers who can move quickly and confidently on the right property. Because Dennis spans everything from entry-level inland homes to $3M+ waterfront properties, buyers should be clear on their target segment early — the town-wide averages won't tell you much about what a specific price point or neighborhood is actually doing.
Cape Cod Outlook — Summer 2026
Dennis's year-to-date numbers reflect what's showing up across Cape Cod more broadly this season: more transactions, firmer pricing, and a market that feels more active in 2026 than it did at this point in 2025. Heading into the back half of the summer selling season, expect continued competition for well-priced homes. If you're weighing a move in Dennis or elsewhere on the Cape, now is a good time to have a real conversation about where your specific situation fits into this trend.
