Guilford, CT Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

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

The snapshot

  • Closings tracked, last 6 months: 229
  • Median sold price, last 6 months: $615,000
  • Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $302
  • Middle half of sales closed between: $458,000 and $849,825

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 229 closed sales in Guilford over the last six months, with a median closing price of $615,000. 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 $458,000 and $849,825. 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 229 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $253 and $375 per square foot.

Medians hide the shape of a market.

How long a sale takes here

  • Listed to under contract: a median of 18 days, across 130 Guilford closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
  • Contract to closing: a median of 26 days, across 132 Guilford closings Resideline tracked in the last six 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 229 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Guilford angle

Guilford posted 229 tracked closings over the last six months, at a median closed sale price of $615,000, with the middle half of sales falling between $458,000 and $849,825. The band also reaches further above the median than below it: the gap up to the upper quartile exceeds the gap down to the lower quartile, so high-side estimates move away from the citywide figure in bigger steps. That is a market where comp quality matters more than comp quantity. Match closed sales to the subject on the traits that separate one Guilford property from another, and let $615,000 play referee, not appraiser.

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 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 Guilford 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 Guilford over the last six months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track across the town of Guilford 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 19% of the 229 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $625,000.
