What it means

Cumming is the heart of Forsyth County: lake access on one side, the GA-400 commute on the other. New construction still sets the tone in many of its subdivisions.

Over the trailing 12 months, Cumming recorded 2,214 closed sales at a median price of $585,000. Median days on market: 37. That's about 5 weeks from list to contract, so buyers have room to compare and negotiate. The average close-to-list ratio was 95.5%, so the typical seller gave up about 4.5% between list and close. Since 2021, the annual median close price has moved from $415,000 to $530,000. That's up 28%. 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 Cumming?

41.7% of Cumming listings that left the market in the 12 months through September 2026 failed to sell: 1,582 withdrawn or expired against 2,214 closed.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.
