What it means

Duluth pairs one of the metro's liveliest downtowns with deep neighborhood variety, and its restaurant scene alone pulls visitors from across the metro. It sits at the heart of the I-85 corridor's growth story.

Over the trailing 12 months, Duluth recorded 694 closed sales at a median price of $455,000. Median days on market: 30. That's about 4 weeks from list to contract, so buyers have room to compare and negotiate. The average close-to-list ratio was 95.9%, so the typical seller gave up about 4.1% between list and close. Since 2021, the annual median close price has moved from $361,000 to $455,000. That's up 26%. 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 Duluth?

34% of Duluth listings that left the market in the 12 months through September 2026 failed to sell: 358 withdrawn or expired against 694 closed.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.
