Buying in Pembroke

What should buyers know about Pembroke?

Looking for a mortgage in Pembroke, NH? Tom MacDonald, a loan officer with Elite Mortgage Group, helps buyers and homeowners in Pembroke and nearby towns with purchase loans, refinancing and pre-approvals, comparing options from 45 lenders. Pembroke's 2025 total property tax rate is $21.84 per $1,000 of assessed value (NH DRA). See every Merrimack County town's rate.

Pembroke is in Merrimack County just southeast of Concord, and the rivers that form most of its borders gave Three Rivers School its name. US Route 3 runs along Pembroke Street through Suncook village toward Concord, and NH Route 28 crosses the town's northeastern corner. About two-thirds of Suncook village lies in Pembroke, with the rest in Allenstown.

Suncook's housing mixes single-family homes, multi-family buildings, condos and apartments above downtown businesses, so small multi-family financing for owner-occupied two- to four-unit buildings comes up here alongside conventional, FHA and VA loans. Pembroke's schools are Pembroke Hill School (K-4), Three Rivers School (5-8) and Pembroke Academy, the public high school in SAU 53 that also takes students from Allenstown, Epsom and Chichester.

FHA-approved condos: HUD lists 2 approved condo complexes in Pembroke (October 2026). See the list.

Tom's take on Pembroke
Most of Suncook village is in Pembroke, with shops and apartments along Pembroke Street (US 3). If you're thinking about a 2 to 4 unit building to live in, it's worth a look.
