“Brittany was so confident and optimistic from day one and made herself available any time of day, with very prompt communication on any request or update! She came prepared before even meeting me, educated on comparisons and providing examples from the start! She even had a strategy, and always thought in the markets shoes, determining when is the best day, or even time of day to update or post my listing! She had my back the whole time, and gave her honest opinion and advice for counter offers, and asking price, while also respecting my decision the whole time! I am thankful she helped me sell my townhome, in under 40 days on the market! 👏👏”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in Berkeley has tightened in this rolling three-month view, with active listings down compared with last year even as new listings have jumped more than 25 percent. Months of supply has dropped sharply year over year to just 2.7, reinforcing a seller’s market where options are limited. At the same time, pending sales are down more than 25 percent from a year ago, showing that the pace of homes going under contract has cooled despite constrained supply.
Prices have moved upward as buyers compete for fewer closed deals. The typical home value is up nearly 8 percent year over year, while the median list price has climbed more than 20 percent over the same period, signaling stronger seller expectations.
Homes are still selling more quickly than last year, with the median days on market falling from 87 to 59 and a growing share of properties going under contract within two weeks. About 58 percent of recent sales closed above the list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 100 percent, indicating that many sellers are achieving or slightly exceeding their asking prices. With this mix of firm pricing, lower supply, and shifting contract activity, both buyers and sellers in Berkeley can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who knows how to navigate these conditions.
Learn more about what Berkeley has to offer.
Berkeley offers residents a warm, close-knit community with accessible parks, convenient local shops, good schools, and dependable amenities that support everyday life.
Berkeley offers a quieter, close knit option compared with larger neighbors like Oak Brook and Elmhurst, while still keeping you minutes from major job centers and shopping. With quick access to I‑290 and the Metra UP‑West line from Berkeley Station, commuting to downtown Chicago or nearby Melrose Park and Bellwood is straightforward.
Tree lined residential streets, a spread of mid century homes, and a strong tradition of longtime residents give Berkeley a grounded sense of identity. Families appreciate neighborhood schools such as Sunnyside Elementary and MacArthur Middle School, and the local library at the Berkeley Public Library anchors community programs and learning.
Outdoor time is easy to find. The Berkeley Park District maintains parks, playgrounds, and ballfields, while larger forest preserves and amenities in nearby Hillside expand your options for weekend activities and sports.
Because Berkeley’s housing stock is limited and turnover is modest, timing and preparation matter. Buyers who understand micro neighborhood differences and pricing trends can move quickly when the right home appears. Sellers who prepare thoughtfully and price precisely can capture strong interest from both local renters ready to buy and buyers arriving from surrounding suburbs. Agent Pronto connects you with a real estate professional who knows Berkeley’s market rhythms, so both buyers and sellers can make smart, well timed decisions.
Trusted by over 500,000 buyers and sellers.

“Kim was a pleasure to work with. Great experience with Kim all the way around.”
“We weren’t sure how to compare the offers on our house beyond the price. Ryan walked us through the financing, contingencies, and closing dates so we understood the differences. He was patient with our questions and kept us updated as we moved toward closing. We appreciated being able to reach him when something came up.”
“I highly recommend working with Cesar. One of the things I liked best about working with him was that he really seemed to have my best interests at heart. This man will be pulling out his phone light checking basement corners for any signs of mold or water and checking above every stove to see if there’s a proper vent or not. He noticed many things on walk throughs that my parents and I may have just breezed right past and he makes sure to point out the things he notices, good or bad. They say never trust a sales person but idk, I think Cesar’s just in it for the love of the game at this point. I dragged this man to a LOT of houses and he never once rushed me. He was very insistent that we need to find the right fit for me and that I not go past the amount of money I was comfortable with. This was my first time buying a home so I had about 80,000 questions and he was always happy to talk through any questions or concerns. He’s a fun guy to work with as well. In these trying times you need a sense of humor or the home buying process will be miserable. All in all I would definitely recommend working with him.”
“Daniel had helped us in the past with the purchase of our first home so it was an easy decision when we decided it was time to move again to use him. He was accommodating, helpful and gave insight when we were looking for a new house in a new area. He listened to our wants and pointed things out we may not have noticed ourselves. This time we used Daniel for the sale of our condo and the purchase of our new home and was attentive, engaged & made both the purchase and sale happen seamlessly. I highly recommend Daniel to anyone selling or buying! With him you will find someone who genuinely wants to help with the difficult process of buying / selling.”
“We trusted Marek Prus because of his excellent reputation in the real estate business, and he did not disappoint. He did a great job selling our condo, and buying our new townhouse. Marek was diligent, on time and prepared every time. He truly cared about our unique situation. From handling negotiations to resolving last minute hiccups, Marek Prus proved to be an excellent problem solver. Thanks to his vast knowledge and experience, we felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire selling and buying process. We strongly recommend him to anyone! Thank You Marek!”
“Marla did an outstanding job assisting us finding the right home for us. She was very helpful and understood our needs. With her experience we was able to finalize our 1st home in timely manner. She is the perfect realtor who will go above and beyond to find the right place/home for you.”
“I have had the pleasure of working with Andrew and his team on the sale of two homes, as well as the purchase of another. Throughout each transaction, the team was consistently efficient, friendly, and professional. I was kept well informed at every stage of the process, and everything was explained clearly and thoroughly. Any questions I had were addressed promptly, and I always felt that my needs and concerns were given careful attention. I would highly recommend Andrew and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Their professionalism, communication, and commitment to providing excellent service made each experience a very positive one.”
“He was very informative, always on time and is flexible. Would highly recommend, he helped me find our forever home. He was very patient and communicative throughout the whole process.”
“I had a great experience working with Mr. Danny during my home-buying journey. He was professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer my questions. His guidance made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Mr. Danny paid close attention to my needs and helped me find the right home without any pressure. I truly appreciate his patience, honesty, and dedication. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a house.”
“Laura is hard working, dedicated, and responsive. She understood the challenges of a cash-only sale and made things happen that would have been dropped by less motivated realtors. As my listing agent she closed a sale on a property that was very difficult to sell at a sales price that other realtors balked at. She earned every penny of her commission. Hire her! You won’t regret it.”
“Honestly Ariel is an amazing realtor. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and willing to answer all my random questions as a first time homeowner. She clearly explained the process, was patient when looking at a variety of homes over a year, and was a huge help. 10/10 Recommend!”
“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!”
“Nicole and team could not have been better. List to close in under two months, with some challenging market conditions near us. Combine that with multiple offers, and 100% of ask and we couldn't be happier. She is thorough, meticulous, and kept us looped in to her thought process on marketing, offers, and closing. She previously helped family members with their purchase, and they were very happy as well. Thanks Nicole.”
“As a first-time homebuyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience working with Gloria! She was incredibly responsive and always quick to answer my (many!) questions, which made the whole process feel a lot less overwhelming. What really stood out was how involved she was every step of the way. From helping me understand what to look for in a home, to guiding me through offers, inspections, and closing, they made sure I felt informed and confident in every decision. She took the time to explain things clearly, never rushed me, and always had my best interests in mind. Buying a home for the first time can be stressful, but they made it feel smooth and manageable from start to finish. I’d highly recommend Gloria to any first-time buyer looking for someone patient, knowledgeable, and truly supportive throughout the entire journey.”
“Noel made buying my first home super easy! This market was hard to buy in, but he was on top of new listings and was able to get us a tour the first day houses went up! He was also very communicative through the whole closing process and knowledgeable on all the first-time homebuying things to know. I highly recommend Noel!”
“Selling our condo was a much smoother experience than I expected, and I truly have Larry to thank for that. From the very beginning, he was knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly professional. Night or Day, weekday or weekend Larry answered the phone and communicated actively any information about the process to us. A true professional. He guided us through every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and always made us feel confident in the decisions we were making. What impressed me most was his negotiation skills. Larry advocated for our best interests every step of the way and worked hard to secure the best possible outcome. We always felt like he had our back and never settled for less than what our home was worth. If you’re looking for an agent who is honest, strategic, communicative, and genuinely invested in their clients, we can’t recommend Larry Lazar highly enough. Selling a home can be stressful, but he made the entire process seamless. We would absolutely work with him again and recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home.”
“We had a great experience working with Micheal while buying our condo in Chicago. He was knowledgeable, honest, and always gave us straightforward advice, which we really valued. He also has a fun personality that made the entire process even more enjoyable. He stayed in constant communication, answered all our questions, and made what could have been a stressful process feel seamless. We’re so grateful for his support and would absolutely recommend him!”
“Cannot emphasize enough how helpful Brad was during this whole process. We had literally zero idea about what we were doing and he helped in so many ways.”
“Dean was a great realtor. Knowledgeable, on time, personable, and really made me feel comfortable throughout the process. I would highly recommend. He was always available and really put in the effort to meet my needs. If there were any obstacles, he wasn't afraid to dig in and get them resolved. He worked closely with the seller's agent, lender, and others. No steps were missed and I really liked his attention to detail.”
