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

If you invest in or around Fairburn, the number that matters is what homes actually close for, not what sellers are asking. Here is what Fairburn sale prices look like right now, built from the closings Resideline tracked over the last 12 months, as of October 2026.

The snapshot

  • •Closings tracked, last 12 months: 203
  • •Median sold price, last 12 months: $340,000
  • •Median sold $/sqft, last 12 months: $155
  • •Middle half of sales closed between: $250,000 and $440,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 203 closed sales in Fairburn over the last 12 months, with a median closing price of $340,000. 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 $250,000 and $440,000. 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. 96% of the Fairburn 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. Across the 197 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $131 and $176 per square foot.

How long a sale takes here

  • •Listed to under contract: a median of 41 days, across 142 Fairburn closings Resideline tracked in the last 12 months
  • •Contract to closing: a median of 29 days, across 135 Fairburn 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 203 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Fairburn angle

Across 203 closings Resideline tracked in Fairburn over the last 12 months, the median closed sale price was $340,000 and the middle half of sales closed between $250,000 and $440,000. The upper half of the band is the wider of the two: $340,000 to $440,000 is a longer stretch than $250,000 to $340,000. Above the midpoint the tracked sales are spread further apart, so quote a range there rather than a single figure.

From market read to offer price

A market read is the backdrop. 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 Fairburn 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.

Every local market figure on this page is computed from closed sales Resideline tracked in Fairburn over the last 12 months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track within the Fairburn 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 16% of the 203 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $355,000.
