Gulfport, MS Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

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

The snapshot

• •Closings tracked, last 6 months: 580
• •Median sold price, last 6 months: $217,900

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 580 closed sales in Gulfport over the last six months, with a median closing price of $217,900. 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 $162,365 and $315,406. 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. 88% of the Gulfport 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 579 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $112 and $163 per square foot.

The Gulfport angle

Across 580 closings Resideline tracked in Gulfport over the last six months, the median closed sale price was $217,900, and the middle half closed between $162,365 and $315,406. Width is close to typical for the markets we track and the band sits fairly evenly around the median, which is the profile where a citywide midpoint is worth quoting in conversation and worth abandoning the moment you have matched sales in hand. Use it to confirm that your comps cluster rather than scatter: if some sit near your number and others sit out at the edge of the band, your number is doing work the closed data does not support.

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. As of August 2026, the public scoreboard showed 3.26% median error across 12,516+ graded closings. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.
