Williamsport, PA Housing Market 2026: Median Home Price, Last 12 Months
What homes actually sell for in Williamsport: a median closing price of $147,500 across 341 closings Resideline tracked over the last 12 months, plus the full price spread.
Williamsport produces a steady stream of closings but little consensus: sales over the last 12 months span a range wide enough that the median is a midpoint between different markets, not a going rate. The distribution below matters more than the headline.
The snapshot
- •Closings tracked, last 12 months: 341
- •Median sold price, last 12 months: $147,500
- •Median sold $/sqft, last 12 months: $85
- •Middle half of sales closed between: $87,500 and $193,000
What the numbers say
Resideline tracked 341 closed sales in Williamsport over the last 12 months, with a median closing price of $147,500. 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 $87,500 and $193,000. 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. 80% of the Williamsport 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 340 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $51 and $123 per square foot.

The Williamsport angle
Williamsport's spread between $87,500 and $193,000 is wider than in most markets we track, which is the fact that should shape any valuation built on this page. A wide band means the citywide median is a poor proxy for a specific address, however solid the sale count behind it. The extra width is on the lower side: more distance separates $87,500 from $147,500 than separates $147,500 from $193,000. Closings below the midpoint therefore sit further apart, and comp sets drawn from that region will look noisier even when the matches are reasonable. 341 closings is a solid sample and can carry strict filtering. Hold property type and size, accept a short list, and read the disagreement within that list as the confidence statement. Checking the result against $87,500 to $193,000 is still worthwhile, but treat the band as a boundary test rather than as a source of precision.
From market read to offer price
A spread this wide means the citywide number cannot price a specific address; the step that matters is the property-level read. 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. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.
Run any Williamsport 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 Williamsport over the last 12 months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track within the Williamsport 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 33% of the 341 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $158,900.

How should a Williamsport estimate handle the wide price range?
By not relying on it. The distance from $87,500 to $193,000 is wider than in most markets we track, so the range is too broad to price a specific property. Use comps matched on property type and size, keep the list short, and let their internal spread describe your confidence. Note that the lower part of the band, from $87,500 up to $147,500, is the wider part, so below-median comps disagree more before any filtering error is involved.
