When the original Summer House kicked off, the home featured on the show was being offered for anywhere from $100,000 to $125,000 per month. However, the home featured in Summer House Season 7 rents for about $250,000 per month. The monthly rent in the Hamptons would technically match what Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard producers paid for their crib when they filmed last year.

Homes like these also sell within a similar price range. Currently, the Hamptons Summer House is on the market for about $4.5 million. Unless producers plan to buy it, Summer House Season 8 may need to find a new location.

Homes on the Vineyard are also extremely pricey. Multiple-bedroom homes with a pool can sell from $2.5 to well over $22 million.

Home prices exploded on the Vineyard since the pandemic

Buying a home, and even renting, is more expensive than ever on the island. Many people sought refuge on Martha’s Vineyard during the pandemic, with a slew of buyers snapping up properties and driving down inventory. Not only did this boost prices, but it worsened an already alarming housing epidemic on the island.

The average single-family home was just over $2 million in 2021 and rose to $2.1 million in 2022, the Vineyard Gazette reports. “The impact is that we are moving toward what happened on Nantucket, where the getting-in price [to buy a home on Island] is [often] $3 million to $4 million,” Deb Blair, president of LINK said. “We don’t have the pricing of Nantucket here but we are barreling toward this new threshold of what it will cost to buy a home on Martha’s Vineyard.”
