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

If you invest in or around Powell, the number that matters is what homes actually close for, not what sellers are asking. Here is what Powell 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: 243
  • •Median sold price, last 12 months: $355,000
  • •Median sold $/sqft, last 12 months: $207
  • •Middle half of sales closed between: $278,898 and $420,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 243 closed sales in Powell over the last 12 months, with a median closing price of $355,000. 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 $278,898 and $420,000. 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. 82% of the Powell 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 240 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $186 and $229 per square foot.

Medians hide the shape of a market.

How long a sale takes here

  • •Listed to under contract: a median of 27 days, across 160 Powell closings Resideline tracked in the last 12 months
  • •Contract to closing: a median of 30 days, across 157 Powell 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 243 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Powell angle

Powell closings cluster more tightly than most markets we track. Across 243 closings Resideline tracked over the last 12 months, the median closed sale price was $355,000, and the middle half of sales closed between $278,898 and $420,000. That compactness is worth using: the median genuinely predicts here, and the productive question is whether your subject is a typical Powell property or an exception you can evidence with matched sales. More of the middle band sits below the median than above it, so the softer end holds more distance than the stronger end does.

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 Powell 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 Powell over the last 12 months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track across the Powell Census-designated area 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 15% of the 243 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $359,950.
