Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Inventory in Arlington Heights is relatively lean in this rolling three-month view, with about 1.6 months of supply and 522 active listings, up modestly from a year ago. Homes are still moving at a steady pace, with 334 sales over the period and median days on market edging down slightly year over year to 42 days. Contract activity is roughly flat, as pending sales are down just under 1 percent from last year while new listings are up a bit, suggesting a more balanced flow of homes coming on and off the market.
Pricing has been pushing upward over the past year. The typical home value is up nearly 5 percent year over year, and the median list price has climbed almost 8 percent. Even with those gains, buyers are not facing runaway bidding, as the share of homes selling above list is roughly unchanged from last year at about half of all sales, and the average sale-to-list ratio is holding around 101 percent.
Conditions still lean in favor of sellers, reflected in the seller’s market gauge and the quick turnover of many homes, with more than half going off the market within two weeks. At the same time, buyers have a bit more choice than in some prior periods, as active listings and new listings have both increased compared with a year ago. Whether you are a buyer navigating rising prices or a seller trying to maximize your return, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local Arlington Heights agent who knows how to succeed in this market.
Arlington Heights offers residents a friendly, well-rounded community with ample parks and recreation, diverse dining and shopping, strong schools, and easy access to regional amenities.
Arlington Heights stands out from nearby suburbs like Schaumburg and Des Plaines with its true downtown core, walkable streets, and strong sense of local pride. The Metra station anchors a compact center filled with independent restaurants, such as those around Harmony Park, and seasonal events that draw long‑time residents and new arrivals together.
Families are often drawn by the well regarded schools, including Arlington High School’s successor district at Buffalo Grove High within Township High School District 214, and by extensive park space managed through the Arlington Heights Park District. Recreation options range from pools and athletics at Olympic Indoor Swim Center to theater at the Metropolis Performing Arts Centre. The Arlington Heights Memorial Library serves as a civic hub with programs for all ages.
Housing choices run from condos near the train for easy commuting to Chicago, to established single family streets that feel a world away from the city. Proximity to Mount Prospect, Rolling Meadows, and Palatine broadens shopping, dining, and employment options while keeping a neighborhood feel at home.
Whether you are planning a move to Arlington Heights or considering selling, timing and preparation matter in this competitive market. Agent Pronto can connect you with a local real estate professional who understands current conditions and can guide both buyers and sellers with confidence.

“Kim Wirtz is one of the most professional and nicest realtor we have worked with. From start to finish her communication was exceptional. She gave us honest feedback and advice which was much appreicated. She was also very understanding to our needs and understood our goal in selling our home. Highly recommended!”
“Working with Anthony was an absolute game-changer for us as first-time home buyers. He knows the local market inside and out, he answered all of our (many) questions at any time of the day, and not only was he very professional and reliable, but we knew throughout the process that he genuinely cared about us and our satisfaction. Now we have our dream home! I'm so glad we had Anthony working with us throughout this process, and we highly recommend him!”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Steve Goodman and the experience we’ve had working with him over the past 10 years. Steve was my realtor when I purchased my very first condo, and 10 years later, he was right there with us as we sold that condo and purchased what we hope will be our forever home. Having the opportunity to work with the same realtor through such an important chapter of our lives speaks volumes about the trust and confidence we have in him. What sets Steve apart is that he genuinely puts his clients’ best interests first. He is never pushy or focused on simply making a sale. Instead, he takes the time to listen, answer every question, offer honest advice, and make sure you feel comfortable with every decision. He is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile.”
“Renee treats customers professionally and at the same time as friends. She goes above and beyond what is required on all facits of the process. She makes the process, which appears to be a mountain to climb, a pleasureable, simple process. I would unequivocally recommend Renee to anyone looking for a 'Best in the business' agent. Mark Stephens”
“Was impressed from the beginning when the owner answered the phone and made an appointment within a day or two to come out to the property. When we decided to put the house on the market, they were extremely professional And answered all our questions. The photographer came out promptly, and took amazing pictures of the property. It was listed the next day,and our house sold in less than a week. Andrew McCatty was our broker. He could not have been more knowledgeable or professional. Any questions that we had, Andrew either answered the phone or got back to us very quickly. Highly recommend Andrew and Century 21 Circle. Would only work with them again and would recommend them to family and friends.”
“Catherine Terpstra made herself available to us in our search for a house as we were moving from out of state back to IL. As soon as we contacted her, it felt like she dropped everything "just for us". (We know she was attending to other clinets, as well!) She was very efficient in setting up houses for us to tour, within and without our pricing perameters. She "heard us" in regard to the "non-negotiables" we had for a house for which we were looking. She printed out pertinent infomration on each place for us. We were in a time-crunch, as we had come from out of state to search for a place to live. She was able to help us find a very nice new home. We are very thankful to her for her understanding and expertise in real estate and in the current housing market.”
“I've worked with Shawn Jones for nearly 10 years. He helped me find my first apartment, and first home after getting married. He is a deeply considerate, caring, and experienced agent. I can't recommend him highly enough.”
“Emir is a wonderful agent! His expertise in real estate was great and he was extremely helpful with any questions. He was patient and always responded in a timely manner. I would highly recommend hiring Emir as your agent!”
“Paula was fantastic! She was knowledgeable, very responsive, and was able to walk me through the process step-by-step as a first-time seller. Would highly recommend to anyone and everyone!”
“Katherine Rubis was very patient with me during the year that I was looking for homes. She was always available to discuss our next steps or to show me new listings. Every single part of the process that Katherine handled was very smooth and easy for me. She is an outstanding agent and I will definitely call her when I am in the market to sell or buy a home again. There is nothing else she could have done to make me more satisfied with working with her. I have zero complaints.”
“Meldina is an expert in the local market and an exceptional negotiator. Her professionalism, communication, and dedication exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend her!”
“It was a pleasure to work with Robert, he paid a lot of attention to our expectations and preferences, and he is strong in negotiating.”
“To be honest Ralph was the best part of my team. He's a good person and if it wasn't for him I wouldn't know half of what I know about buying a house Thanks Ralph”
“Our house could be considered high end property in the neighborhood. Cinny worked hard to get it under the contract in a week and sold our house a little over a month. We are happy about the result. During the process, there were ups and downs which made us nervious. Cinny listened to our concerns and gave us professional advice.”
“Best realtor! Has helped us with two properties and always easy to work with and super prompt with communication. Will be using him for future properties!”
“Would use Lizette again, very easy to work with & very professional. Would recommend here 100% to Friends.”
“John Campobasso was great to work with in selling our unit. He was professional, knowledgeable, and guided us through every step of the process. We really appreciated how upfront and straightforward he was. He always gave us honest feedback and clear expectations. He made the whole experience feel smooth and much less stressful than we anticipated. We’re so glad we worked with him and would definitely recommend his services to anyone looking to buy or sell.”
“Mike is professional, extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with”
“Thank you Tina it was a pleasure working with you”
“Nancy Silwa is an experienced realtor who knows her profession. She knows, and in fact lives in the area, where I was selling my house. This was a bonus as she really had a handle on the market. She walked with me every step of the way so that I understood the process. I was selling a home I had lived in for 43 years. Nancy understood the emotional impact of this decision and gently helped me stay focused on the task at hand: sell the house. She found the perfect buyers. A young couple who will make my house their home. Knowing this made selling my home a little easier. I would and indeed have recommended Nancy to others. She is simply THE BEST!”
