What does $500K–$750K buy in Goochland County in 2026?

In September 2026, the $500K–$750K band in Goochland County had a median closing price of $625,000, a median of 45 days on market and a price of $274.20 per square foot, based on 11 closed sales.

That band had the largest share of the county’s closed sales last month, so it is a useful place to start. It is also a small sample, and I’ll flag where that matters.

What did the $500K–$750K band look like in September?

Measure (Goochland, $500K–$750K)	September 2026
Closed sales	11
Median sale price	$625,000
Median days on market	45
Median price per square foot	$274.20
Active listings	36
Months of supply	2.5

Eleven sales is enough to describe the month, not enough to define the band. A different month could look noticeably different.

How does that compare with the whole county?

All 25 of Goochland’s September closings had a median price of $625,000, up 1.6% from a year ago, and a median of 43 days on market. That is up 138.9% from a year ago, which sounds dramatic but comes from a small base. Detached homes made up 24 of the 25 sales, with a median of $650,000.

Sales closed at a median of 98.6% of the final list price, and 32% had a price reduction. Together those may point to more room to negotiate than in the Richmond metro overall, where the median sale-to-list ratio was 100.0%. With 25 sales, that is a tentative reading.

Median price per square foot was $260.42 countywide, essentially flat from a year ago (-0.3%).

What about the other price bands?

Goochland’s other bands had too few sales for a median, so I won’t guess at what they buy. What the data does show is supply:

Band	Closed sales	Active listings	Months of supply
$350K–$500K	3	13	2.3
$500K–$750K	11	36	2.5
$750K–$1M	4	32	6.9
$1M+	3	36	4.9

Months of supply is how long active listings would last at the recent sales pace. The higher bands had far more listings relative to sales, which is a sign of choice for buyers. With only three or four sales behind those ratios, I would treat them as directional.

What does that mean for a buyer?

This is interpretation. Goochland’s September sales were almost all detached homes (24 of 25), so expect that to be most of what you see. The data doesn’t say which neighborhoods offer what, so don’t take the county median as a guide to a particular street.

A 45-day median may mean a buyer who needs the home to be right can afford some patience, though 11 sales is thin evidence. A buyer who sees a home they love should still price the offer on recent sales of similar homes, not on the slower pace.

What should I watch for next?

Whether days on market keeps climbing, and whether sale-to-list slips further below 100%. Both would suggest sellers need to price more carefully. My read is that this market rewards sellers and buyers who have comparable sales in hand. I would not call a direction from a single month with 25 sales.
