Austell, GA Housing Market 2026: Median Home Price, Last 12 Months

In a market the size of Austell, individual sales move the needle. The figures below rest on 129 tracked closings over the last 12 months, so read them as the direction of the market rather than a precise price for any one street.

The snapshot

  • •Closings tracked, last 12 months: 129
  • •Median sold price, last 12 months: $325,000 (low-volume sample)
  • •Median sold $/sqft, last 12 months: $179
  • •Middle half of sales closed between: $285,000 and $358,967

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 129 closed sales in Austell over the last 12 months, with a median closing price of $325,000. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $285,000 and $358,967. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. Across the 123 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $142 and $201 per square foot.

Medians hide the shape of a market.

Among the 90 Georgia markets with a published band, Austell's middle-half spread ($285,000 to $358,967) ranks 4th from the narrowest.

How long a sale takes here

  • •Listed to under contract: a median of 28 days, across 81 Austell closings Resideline tracked in the last 12 months
  • •Contract to closing: a median of 31 days, across 86 Austell closings Resideline tracked in the last 12 months
Both are measured from the closings themselves, not from listing inventory. Each sale is timed using its own listing and contract dates. That is why these counts are smaller than the 129 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Austell angle

Compression is the headline in Austell. The gap between $285,000 and $358,967 is narrower than most markets we track, so the middle half of tracked sales lands in a small span and $325,000 sits close to a lot of it. As a first approximation the citywide midpoint is unusually serviceable here. The consequence is that adjustments dominate. In a compact distribution, a correction for living area or condition covers a large share of the whole band, so an imprecise adjustment does more damage than the same error would in a dispersed market. Match comps structurally and be careful about the size of every adjustment you apply. The lower half of the band is the wider side, so whatever spread exists sits below the midpoint.

From market read to offer price

A thin market punishes generic pricing; the way to firm up a number here is the specific property and its handful of true comps. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator, rehab cost estimator, BRRRR calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.

And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale, so it cannot be revised once the sale price is known. Grading it depends on a confirmed closing price reaching us, which happens for only a small share of Georgia homes, so the accuracy scoreboard is a national record rather than a Georgia one. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

Run any Austell address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.

The local market statistics in this report are calculated from closed sales tracked by Resideline. Transaction coverage may differ from complete county or municipal records. This is a low-volume sample: treat the statistics as directional rather than precise estimates of the entire local market.

Every local market figure on this page is computed from closed sales Resideline tracked in Austell over the last 12 months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track within the Austell city limits are not limited to listing-service sales: they also include foreclosure deeds, estate and family transfers, and other off-market sales that portal medians exclude, which is why 13% of the 129 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $329,900. This is a low-volume market: the figures below rest on 129 closings within the Austell city limits, so treat the median as indicative rather than precise.
