Warwick housing market snapshot (as of fall 2026)

Data providers measure the market differently, so here are dated figures with their sources instead of one number:

  • Median sale price: about $440K for the three months ending October 2026, up 2.3% from a year earlier (Redfin). Realtor.com reported a $465,000 median sold price for October 2026 (up about 8.8% year over year) and a $442,425 median listing price.
  • Speed: Redfin and Realtor.com both reported a median of about 28 days on market. Redfin's figure was unchanged from a year earlier; Realtor.com's was up about 12%.
  • Price vs. list: Redfin reported a 100.9% sale-to-list ratio, with about 53.5% of homes selling above list price, and said homes get about 2 offers on average. Realtor.com put the October sale-to-list ratio at about 101%.
  • Inventory and market type: Realtor.com counted 310 active listings in October 2026, up about 4% year over year, and called Warwick a seller's market. Redfin described it as "very competitive" and counted 314 homes sold in October 2026, versus 320 a year earlier.
  • Price spread by neighborhood (Realtor.com median listing prices, October 2026): from about $382K in Bald Hill and $394K in Hillsgrove to about $650K on Warwick Neck and $742K in Cowesett.

What that means for you: Warwick is a busy, steady market. Well-priced homes still draw multiple offers, but prices are rising slowly, not jumping, and there are a few more listings than last year. Because Warwick is big and varied, from airport-area capes to waterfront homes on Greenwich Bay, a citywide median says very little about one house. We price from recent sales in your neighborhood.

Warwick's villages and neighborhoods

Warwick is Rhode Island's third-largest city (82,823 people in the 2020 census), with its whole eastern edge on the water. Locals usually say which village they live in:

  • Pawtuxet and Gaspee (north): Pawtuxet Village straddles the Cranston line; Gaspee is named for the 1772 Gaspee Affair.
  • Hillsgrove, Norwood, and Lakewood (near the airport): older capes and ranches close to Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport, Route 37, and I-95.
  • Apponaug (center): the historic village where City Hall sits, near the I-95 / Route 117 interchange.
  • Conimicut, Oakland Beach, Nausauket, Buttonwoods, and Warwick Neck (shore): neighborhoods on Narragansett Bay and Greenwich Bay, from small beach cottages to larger waterfront homes.
  • Cowesett, Greenwood, Pontiac, and Bald Hill (west): suburban streets near Route 2, I-295, and the shopping corridor.
  • Potowomut (south): a separate piece of Warwick reachable by land only through East Greenwich.

Warwick's main ZIP codes are 02886, 02888, and 02889. Potowomut uses East Greenwich's 02818. Homes range from post-war capes and ranches to condos, colonials, and waterfront properties, so we compare street by street.

Living in Warwick

  • Getting around: I-95, I-295, and Route 37 run through the city. Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport is here, and its train station on the Providence/Stoughton commuter rail line has weekday service to Providence and Boston's South Station.
  • Outdoors: Goddard Memorial State Park (Potowomut), Rocky Point State Park (former amusement park, closed in 1995), Oakland Beach, and Conimicut Point.
  • Schools: Warwick Public Schools serves the city. Check the district for current school assignments.
  • Flood and storm check: Redfin (citing First Street) rated Warwick's flood risk as moderate, with about 15% of properties at risk of severe flooding over the next 30 years. Buyers near the shore or the Pawtuxet River should check the FEMA flood map and ask about flood insurance early; sellers should have that information ready.

Buying in Warwick

Homes priced right go under contract in about four weeks, and about half sell above asking, so get a pre-approval and know the recent sales before you tour. Prices vary a lot by neighborhood, so decide early whether you want to be near the water, near the airport and highways, or in the western suburbs. If a home is near the shore or the river, check flood zone and insurance costs before you make an offer. Start your home search
