Median sale price — last 12 months
The median sale price in Brunswick City was $275,000 last year, based on 627 recorded home sales. Median means the midpoint — half those homes sold for more, half for less. It is more reliable than an average because one very expensive sale cannot pull the number up. Sales ranged from $14,963 to $751,400.
If your budget is near or above this number, most of what sells here is in your range. Below it, homes exist but you are working in the lower half of the market. Use it as a starting point, not a ceiling.

Year-over-year price trend
Median sale prices in Brunswick City are down approximately 4.6% from the prior 12-month period. One year of movement does not define a neighborhood — check the price history chart below for the longer view.
A price dip does not mean the neighborhood is losing ground. Markets pull back after active years. For buyers, this means more purchasing power than 12 months ago. For sellers, it is honest context on where the market sits right now — not a reason to panic.

Brunswick is served by a municipal water system and public sanitary sewer. Most residential properties connect to both systems. Connection fees or tap-in charges may apply on newly developed or subdivided parcels.

Estimated annual property taxes
The estimated annual property tax for a typical home in Brunswick City is around $3,457, based on current county auditor records. Your actual bill will vary depending on exemptions you qualify for and when your home was last assessed.
Most lenders roll property taxes into your monthly mortgage payment through escrow — so your real payment will be higher than just principal and interest. Budget roughly $288 a month for taxes on top of your base loan payment. When comparing two homes at the same price in different areas, the tax rate alone can shift your true monthly cost by hundreds of dollars.

Ask your agent to filter by lot size early. The range here is wider than the median suggests.
