What Sold in the Golden Isles: September 2026

September 2026 home sales on St. Simons Island, Sea Island, Jekyll Island and in Brunswick: how many sold, median prices, the top sales and what it means if you’re thinking of selling.

Key takeaways

  • St. Simons Island recorded 54 residential sales in September 2026 at a median of $647,500, and more than a dozen sold for $1 million or more.
  • Brunswick recorded 59 sales at a median of $354,420, its second-highest monthly median of the past year.
  • With about seven months of supply on St. Simons Island, buyers have choices, so pricing and presentation decide which homes sell.

St. Simons Island

St. Simons Island recorded 54 residential sales in September 2026, with a median sale price of $647,500. That is one of the lower monthly medians of the past 12 months, but monthly medians move with the mix of homes that happen to close, so one month is not a trend. More than a dozen homes sold for $1 million or more, and the top sale closed at about $4.09 million. Over the past year, the typical monthly median has been about $719,875.

Sea Island

Sea Island had a handful of closings in September, including one estate sale above $18 million. Because so few Sea Island homes trade each month, a single sale can move the numbers dramatically. For Sea Island owners, the most useful measure is a property-specific analysis of recent sales and current competition.

Jekyll Island

Jekyll Island recorded two residential sales in September, the higher at $750,000. With about 60 homes for sale and roughly four sales a month over the past year, Jekyll sellers are competing for a limited pool of buyers, so sharp pricing and a clear explanation of the land lease make a real difference.

Brunswick

Brunswick recorded 59 residential sales in September at a median of $354,420, the second-highest monthly median of the past 12 months, after May’s $368,440. The top sale closed at about $1.05 million.

What this means if you’re thinking of selling

St. Simons Island has about seven months of supply and Brunswick about six. That is close to a balanced market, which means buyers can compare. The homes that sell are priced from this year’s sales, not last year’s headlines, and they make a strong first impression online. If you’re curious what your home would sell for today, I’m happy to prepare a private valuation.
