Running Creek is trading with a median price of $368,000 and a median price per square foot of $165.38, against a median of 17 days on market. With only five closings in the current window, that pricing picture is a snapshot, not a trend line — a couple of sales at either end of the condition spectrum can move the median more than they would in a larger pool of comparables.
The 17-day median suggests homes priced to current condition are moving without much delay, which points to a market where sellers should price to the data rather than to hope, and buyers should expect to compete if a listing looks clean and is priced near or under the per-square-foot median.
The 60-Second Overview
Running Creek market snapshot (as of September 1, 2026): the median sale price is about $368K ($165 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 17 days on market for closed sales.
Running Creek sits in Powder Springs within Cobb County, with recent MLS activity showing a tight window of closings that keeps the pricing data useful but thin — worth reading as a directional signal rather than a fixed range.

Who Running Creek is best for.
Best for
- Buying a home based on its own condition and layout rather than a community amenity package.
- Moving with some pricing flexibility, since a thin closings sample means less certainty on exact market value.
- Selling a well-priced, move-in-ready home into a market where a 17-day median suggests reasonably fast interest.
Probably not for
- Needing a shared pool, clubhouse, or similar amenity as part of the purchase decision.
- Requiring a large set of recent comparable sales to validate a price before committing.
- Pricing a listing well above the per-square-foot median without a clear, condition-based justification.

The Running Creek buying strategy.
If we were buying in Running Creek today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Running Creek.
Reading a Thin Data Set Correctly
Five closings in the tracked window is enough to establish a median but not enough to draw firm conclusions about spread or seasonality. The $165.38 per-square-foot figure is the more durable number here, since it normalizes for size differences between the specific homes that sold — useful for sanity-checking a listing price against recent activity rather than assuming every home in the community carries the same value per square foot.
No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, which means value in Running Creek is being driven by the homes themselves — lot, layout, condition, updates — rather than by a shared clubhouse, pool, or similar feature. That is a meaningful distinction for anyone comparing this community to others in Cobb County that market lifestyle amenities as part of the price.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Running Creek. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
With only five recent closings feeding the market data, interpreting Running Creek correctly means knowing which of those sales are truly comparable to a specific property and which are outliers skewing the median. We walk buyers and sellers through that distinction line by line rather than handing over a number and calling it done.
