Housing in Buford
Buford's housing market shows a genuinely wider spread across sources than this dataset's other Gwinnett/Hall markets -- likely a real consequence of its split-county, multi-zip-code geography rather than simple month-to-month volatility -- centered around a mid-$400,000s price point.

Learn moreA genuinely wide, disclosed spread across sources
Sources cited Buford's median sale price at $565,000 (one March 2026 reading), $464,000 (a separate March 2026 reading, up ~5.5% month over month), $494,000 (August 2026, across 485 tracked closings), and $469,000 (the 30519 zip specifically, trailing six months ending July 2026). This $464K-$565K range is wider than the spreads seen for Snellville or Lawrenceville in this dataset -- $476,000 is used as a rough central estimate here, not a precise settled figure.
The cross-county, multi-zip geography likely explains the unusually wide spread
Buford spans multiple zip codes (30515, 30518, 30519) across two counties, each of which may carry genuinely different price levels and inventory mixes -- a citywide 'Buford' figure necessarily blends these together in a way that a single-county, single-zip market like Snellville or Suwanee in this dataset does not have to. Pulling zip-code- or county-side-specific data is more meaningful here than for this dataset's other Gwinnett markets.
Priced above Snellville and Lawrenceville, below Suwanee
At a roughly $476,000 central estimate, Buford prices above both Snellville ($362K-$366K) and Lawrenceville ($370K-$390K) in this dataset's Gwinnett/Hall coverage, and above the widely-cited ~$410K-$430K 2026 US national median, but remains below Suwanee's $560K-$580K.
Verify current, address- and county-specific figures before budgeting
Given the unusually wide spread across sources here, a single citywide figure is a weaker starting point for Buford than for this dataset's other Gwinnett/Hall markets -- pull current, zip-code- and county-side-specific listing and comparable-sale data before making an offer.
Key takeaways
- Buford's median sale price is cited across an unusually wide $464,000-$565,000 range this pass, wider than Snellville's or Lawrenceville's spreads in this dataset -- $476,000 is used as a rough central estimate.
- This wide spread likely reflects Buford's genuine cross-county, multi-zip-code geography (30515, 30518, 30519 across Gwinnett and Hall) rather than simple market volatility.
- Buford prices above Snellville and Lawrenceville but below Suwanee within this dataset's Gwinnett/Hall coverage, and above the ~$410K-$430K 2026 US national median.
- Pull current, zip-code- and county-side-specific data before budgeting -- a single citywide figure is a weaker starting point here than for this dataset's other Gwinnett-only markets.
