What it means

Marietta is Cobb County's seat and its most complete city. The Square sits at the center, established neighborhoods radiate outward, and East Cobb's demand presses on its flank. Prices span a wide range, which keeps first-time and move-up buyers in the same market.

Over the trailing 12 months, Marietta recorded 3,194 closed sales at a median price of $470,000. Median days on market: 24. That's about 3 weeks from list to contract, so buyers have room to compare and negotiate. The average close-to-list ratio was 96.5%, so the typical seller gave up about 3.5% between list and close. Since 2021, the annual median close price has moved from $360,000 to $435,000. 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.

How often do listings fail to sell in Marietta?

33.1% of Marietta listings that left the market in the 12 months through September 2026 failed to sell: 1,578 withdrawn or expired against 3,194 closed.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.
