A second measure: FHFA
The Federal Housing Finance Agency’s House Price Index tracks repeat sales and refinance appraisals of the same homes. For the Greensboro-High Point metro area, its all-transactions index stood at 313.17 in the second quarter of 2026, up 4.9% from 298.52 a year earlier. The FHFA index covers Guilford, Randolph and Rockingham counties and measures how the same houses change in value, so it often runs ahead of or behind Zillow’s estimate.
What the Census says
The Census Bureau’s 2023 American Community Survey five-year estimates put the median value of owner-occupied homes in Greensboro at $221,300. That figure is what owners reported their home was worth across 2019 to 2023, so it trails market indexes. See our Greensboro population and growth page for more Census figures.
How to read these numbers
- The Zillow Home Value Index is a modeled typical value for homes in the middle third of the market, smoothed and seasonally adjusted. It is not a median sale price, and Zillow revises past months.
- ZIP code areas cross city limits, so some ZIP figures include homes outside Greensboro.
- For the sale price of a specific house, see the county deed record; our real estate transfers page lists recent sales.
