Troy, NY Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

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

The snapshot

  • •Closings tracked, last 6 months: 262
  • •Median sold price, last 6 months: $230,000
  • •Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $121
  • •Middle half of sales closed between: $159,750 and $291,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 262 closed sales in Troy over the last six months, with a median closing price of $230,000. 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 $159,750 and $291,000. 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. Across the 260 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $82 and $174 per square foot.

Medians hide the shape of a market. The distribution above covers the closed sales Resideline tracked in Troy over the last six months that carry a usable sale date, trimmed to the 5th through 95th percentile, with the middle half of sales closing between $159,750 and $291,000. Among the 47 New York markets with a published band, Troy's middle-half spread ($159,750 to $291,000) ranks 25th 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 9 days, across 153 Troy closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
  • •Contract to closing: a median of 54 days, across 144 Troy 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 262 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Troy angle

Troy's last six months in our closed-sale data: 262 tracked closings, a median closed sale price of $230,000, and a middle half stretching from $159,750 to $291,000. Quoting the median for a specific Troy address therefore tells you little, and the low side is where an unexamined estimate can drift furthest. Build the valuation from closed sales that genuinely resemble the subject, and expect defensible numbers to land across a broad stretch of prices rather than clustering near $230,000.

Citywide medians hide block-by-block variation. Resideline publishes free, regularly refreshed market snapshots for Troy ZIP codes: 12180.

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 Troy 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 Troy over the last six months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track within the Troy 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 31% of the 262 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $251,000.

How many homes sold in Troy last month?

Resideline has tracked 22 closed sales in Troy in September 2026 so far, out of 262 closings tracked over the last six 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 Troy?

The middle half of Troy sales over the last six months closed between $159,750 and $291,000, with a median of $230,000.

What is the typical price per square foot in Troy?

Among qualifying Troy closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, the median sold price per square foot was $121, measured across 260 sales with usable living area. Median is used rather than average because outliers distort the mean.

Is the Troy median a good starting point for an offer?

Only as a first bearing. The middle half of tracked closings ran from $159,750 to $291,000, a wider stretch than most markets we track, and the band extends further below the median of $230,000 than above it. An offer should come from closed sales matched to the specific property, since the citywide midpoint sits a long way from many perfectly ordinary Troy sales.
