October 2025 Redfin data showed $295,000, DOWN 10.3% YoY; June 2026 Redfin data instead showed $329,821, UP 4.2% YoY. This is a genuine, real swing across two Redfin snapshots roughly 8 months apart -- pull a current figure before budgeting rather than relying on either single reading as a settled trend.
New construction commands a real premium
As of this research pass, 199 new-construction homes were listed in Cleveland at a median $365,000 -- running meaningfully above both resale figures above, consistent with new-construction premiums seen in other markets in this dataset.
A genuinely affordable market relative to national benchmarks either way
Whether read at $295K or $330K, Cleveland's housing runs well below the national median home price -- a real, structural affordability feature regardless of which specific snapshot is used.
