New Albany, OH Housing Market 2026: Median Home Price, Last 12 Months

If you invest in or around New Albany, the number that matters is what homes actually close for, not what sellers are asking. Here is what New Albany 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: 206
  • •Median sold price, last 12 months: $916,894
  • •Median sold $/sqft, last 12 months: $252
  • •Middle half of sales closed between: $636,000 and $1,425,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 206 closed sales in New Albany over the last 12 months, with a median closing price of $916,894. 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 $636,000 and $1,425,000. 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 New Albany 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 206 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $222 and $305 per square foot.

Medians hide the shape of a market. The distribution above covers the closed sales Resideline tracked in New Albany over the last 12 months that carry a usable sale date, trimmed to the 5th through 95th percentile, with the middle half of sales closing between $636,000 and $1,425,000. Among the 110 Ohio markets with a published band, New Albany's middle-half spread ($636,000 to $1,425,000) ranks 90th from the narrowest. Where your target property sits inside that spread matters more than the citywide median.

How long a sale takes here

  • •Listed to under contract: a median of 14 days, across 75 New Albany closings Resideline tracked in the last 12 months
  • •Contract to closing: a median of 23 days, across 42 New Albany 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 206 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The New Albany angle

New Albany's middle half stretches wider than most markets we track. With $636,000 and $1,425,000 that far apart, the citywide $916,894 is a summary statistic and very little else: properties entirely unremarkable for the city can close a long way from it in either direction. The response is to let comps do all the work. Build the set, then check its shape against the band. Because the ground between $916,894 and $1,425,000 covers more than the ground below the midpoint, a comp set that drifts low understates an upper-portion subject by more than a symmetric reading would suggest. Do that check before the estimate leaves your hands.

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 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 New Albany 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 New Albany over the last 12 months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track within the New Albany 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 12% of the 206 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $870,000.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the median home price in New Albany?

The median sold price in New Albany over the last 12 months is $916,894, measured across 206 closings Resideline tracked.

How many homes sold in New Albany last month?

Resideline has tracked 15 closed sales in New Albany in September 2026 so far, out of 206 closings tracked over the last 12 months. The most recent month keeps filling in for several weeks as closings are recorded, so this count will rise. These are tracked samples of market activity, not official county totals.

What is the typical sale price range in New Albany?

The middle half of New Albany sales over the last 12 months closed between $636,000 and $1,425,000, with a median of $916,894.

What is the typical price per square foot in New Albany?

Among qualifying New Albany closings Resideline tracked over the last 12 months, the median sold price per square foot was $252, measured across 206 sales with usable living area. Median is used rather than average because outliers distort the mean.

How do I tell whether a New Albany estimate is anchored to real comps?

Look at what sits behind it. In a market where the middle half runs from $636,000 to $1,425,000, wider than most markets we track, an estimate landing close to $916,894 without matched comps has probably defaulted to the centre. A defensible estimate names closings, drawn from the 206 recorded, that match on property type and living area and sit on the same side of $916,894 as the subject. That side test matters here because the upper portion of the band is the wider one.
