Jonesborough, TN Housing Market 2026: Median Home Price, Last 12 Months

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

The snapshot

  • Closings tracked, last 12 months: 191
  • Median sold price, last 12 months: $385,000
  • Median sold $/sqft, last 12 months: $202
  • Middle half of sales closed between: $265,000 and $450,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 191 closed sales in Jonesborough over the last 12 months, with a median closing price of $385,000. 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 $265,000 and $450,000. 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. 90% of the Jonesborough 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 191 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $168 and $240 per square foot.

How long a sale takes here

  • Listed to under contract: a median of 31 days, across 142 Jonesborough closings Resideline tracked in the last 12 months
  • Contract to closing: a median of 33 days, across 142 Jonesborough 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 191 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Jonesborough angle

Jonesborough's numbers do not force a special approach, but the shape of its band rewards attention. The asymmetry runs downward here. More dollars separate $265,000 from $385,000 than separate $385,000 from $450,000, so the lower side of the middle half is the roomier one. A comp set drawn largely from below the median therefore spans a wider dollar range than its position suggests, and an estimate built on it deserves a wider stated range. Match property type and size first, then check which side of the median your surviving sales occupy.

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 11,465+ graded closings. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

What should I watch for when comping a lower-priced home in Jonesborough?

The extra spread on that side. More dollars separate $265,000 from $385,000 than separate $385,000 from $450,000, so sales below the middle are distributed over a wider range. A comp set pulled from there can support several different answers, which argues for tightening on size and condition rather than accepting nearby sales.
