The snapshot
- •Closings tracked, last 12 months: 149
- •Median sold price, last 12 months: $186,900 (low-volume sample)

What the numbers say
Resideline tracked 149 closed sales in Fayetteville over the last 12 months, with a median closing price of $186,900. 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. The middle half of those sales closed between $129,000 and $278,000. 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. 95% of the Fayetteville 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 148 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $86 and $164 per square foot.

The Fayetteville angle
Nothing extreme shows up in Fayetteville, Tennessee on either measure. Use $186,900 for orientation and the $129,000 to $278,000 band to judge whether the property belongs in the middle of the distribution or outside it. Those are different questions from what the property is worth, and the answer to the last of them comes from a matched set: same property type, similar size, similar condition. The band leans upward, with the stretch above the middle wider than the stretch below it. Keep the filters on where the sample allows.
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 and graded against the real closing price after it sells. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.
Run any Fayetteville 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 Fayetteville over the last 12 months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track within the Fayetteville 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 31% of the 149 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $205,000. This is a low-volume market: the figures below rest on 149 closings within the Fayetteville city limits, so treat the median as indicative rather than precise.
