Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Feb 2026 - Apr 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Braidwood are shifting in this rolling three-month view. Active listings are roughly flat compared with a year ago, but homes sold are up sharply year over year, indicating stronger closed-sale volume. Pending sales have also risen from last year, showing that more deals are moving into contract even as new listings have dipped compared with the same period.
Pricing has eased compared with a year ago while activity has picked up. The typical home value is down year over year, and the median list price is also slightly lower than a year ago, suggesting sellers are pricing more cautiously as buyers gain options. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has fallen from last year, and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged lower, signaling less frequent bidding above asking.
Days on market tell a different story, with the median time to sell now significantly longer than it was a year ago, even as months of supply has compressed into a clear seller’s market range. This mix of stronger sales counts, softer prices, and longer marketing times points to a nuanced environment where local expertise matters. Buyers looking to spot value and sellers aiming to position their home correctly can both benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in connecting with a Braidwood agent who understands these trends.
