What it means

Kennesaw combines Kennesaw State University, the mountain and its trail network, and a deep bench of 1990s-2000s subdivisions that turn over steadily. It's one of Cobb's most reliable mid-price markets.

Over the trailing 12 months, Kennesaw recorded 1,012 closed sales at a median price of $407,000. Median days on market: 27. That's about 4 weeks from list to contract, so buyers have room to compare and negotiate. The average close-to-list ratio was 96.8%, so the typical seller gave up about 3.2% between list and close. Since 2021, the annual median close price has moved from $327,000 to $395,000. That's up 21%. These figures come from the Terence Richardson Group's own FMLS closed-sales archive, refreshed monthly. It's the same data we price from.

TRG proprietary data

How often do listings fail to sell in Kennesaw?

33.5% of Kennesaw listings that left the market in the 12 months through September 2026 failed to sell: 510 withdrawn or expired against 1,012 closed.

That means about 1 in 3 of those listing attempts ended without a sale, after the prep, the showings, the waiting. Each relisting counts separately, so this measures attempts, not homes. Pricing and the first two weeks have a lot to do with which group a listing lands in, and it's the number listing agents almost never show you.
