Willoughby, OH Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

If you invest in or around Willoughby, the number that matters is what homes actually close for, not what sellers are asking. Here is what Willoughby 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: 229
  • •Median sold price, last 6 months: $260,000
  • •Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $165
  • •Middle half of sales closed between: $185,100 and $335,000

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 229 closed sales in Willoughby over the last six months, with a median closing price of $260,000. 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 $185,100 and $335,000. 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 222 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $135 and $190 per square foot.

How long a sale takes here

  • •Listed to under contract: a median of 18 days, across 144 Willoughby closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
  • •Contract to closing: a median of 29 days, across 123 Willoughby 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 229 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

The Willoughby angle

Over the last six months Willoughby produced 229 tracked closings with a median closed sale price of $260,000; the middle half of those sales landed between $185,100 and $335,000. The spread sits on the wider side of typical for the markets we track, enough that the median should be treated as orientation rather than an answer. A useful Willoughby valuation starts from closed sales matched to the subject, states plainly where it sits relative to the band, and explains any position outside the middle half rather than leaving the gap unaddressed.

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 Willoughby 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 Willoughby over the last six months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track within the Willoughby 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 19% of the 229 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $281,500.

How many homes sold in Willoughby last month?

Resideline has tracked 27 closed sales in Willoughby in September 2026 so far, out of 229 closings tracked over the last six months.

What is the typical sale price range in Willoughby?

What is the typical price per square foot in Willoughby?

Among qualifying Willoughby closings Resideline tracked over the last six months, the median sold price per square foot was $165, measured across 222 sales with usable living area. Median is used rather than average because outliers distort the mean.

Should a Willoughby valuation ever sit outside the quartile band?

Yes, when the property genuinely differs from an ordinary local sale. By construction a quarter of tracked Willoughby closings finished below $185,100 and a quarter above $335,000, so out-of-band results are real outcomes, not errors. What matters is that the comps behind such an estimate share whatever makes the subject unusual.
