Canton, MS Housing Market 2026: Median Home Price, Last 12 Months

In a market the size of Canton, individual sales move the needle. The figures below rest on 46 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: 46
  • Median sold price, last 12 months: $249,900 (low-volume sample)
  • Median sold $/sqft, last 12 months: $121
One thing to know about Mississippi data: Mississippi is a non-disclosure state, which means sale prices are not public record. The sold figures above come from closings Resideline tracked directly.

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 46 closed sales in Canton over the last 12 months, with a median closing price of $249,900. 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. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. 100% of the Canton closings we track here are single-family houses, so these figures primarily reflect that segment, and the citywide $/sqft figure primarily reflects that segment as well.

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 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 is a different matter in Mississippi: because sale prices are not public record here, a confirmed closing price reaches us for only a small share of Mississippi homes, and most Mississippi estimates stay frozen and ungraded. The accuracy scoreboard is therefore a national record rather than a Mississippi one. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

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