New Hampshire Video and Audio Equipment Notification

Under New Hampshire RSA 570-A:2, it is illegal to record any oral or electronic communication without the consent of all parties involved, making New Hampshire a strict “two-party consent” state. For home sellers, this means that any audio or video recording devices—such as security cameras, doorbell cameras, or smart home devices—must be turned off, disabled, or removed during showings and open houses, unless prior written consent is obtained from all parties. Violating this law is a Class B felony and may also expose the seller to civil liability . To avoid legal risk and ensure a smooth transaction, sellers should assume that all showings must take place without active recording unless proper disclosure and consent procedures are followed.

Agents are required to obtain a signed acknowledgment from sellers confirming receipt of this notification. Sellers in New Hampshire should remove or disable all audio and video recording equipment prior to showings, or clearly disclose the presence of such devices and obtain consent from buyers and their agents if recording will occur.
