Braidwood real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Braidwood real estate market, updated for March 2026. *
Homes in Braidwood are taking time to move, with a median of 111 days on market and about 6.8 months of supply available. Inventory sits at 34 homes, up 9.68% from last year, while new listings have dropped nearly 28.57%. Fewer fresh options and 8 pending sales suggest buyers have choices, but decisions are not rushed.
Prices are adjusting to this slower pace. The typical home value is about $240,000, down 4.95% year over year, yet it climbed 13.74% from the prior month, and the median list price rose around 19.09% to $315,000, signaling sellers are still testing higher price points. With only 20% of homes selling above list and an average sale-to-list ratio near 0.97, buyers often have room to negotiate while sellers must stay realistic.
Compared with Will County’s typical value of roughly $353,450, Braidwood offers a more affordable entry point, even as local values are projected to edge up toward $254,500 next month and list prices to about $340,250. Inventory is expected to hold near 33 homes, and a modest seller’s market reading of 43 indicates a slight tilt toward owners rather than house hunters. Whether you are a buyer seeking value or a seller aiming to price correctly, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Braidwood agent who understands these trends and can guide your next move.

“Gergana was outstanding from start to finish. She was straightforward, never sugarcoating, and always on point with her suggestions. From the beginning, she came prepared with a clear plan and executed it flawlessly. I was initially worried about listing the house in January, but thanks to Gergana’s expertise and guidance, we were under contract in less than three days, and we received more than our asking price. Her advice was spot-on, and we’re so glad we followed it. We couldn’t be happier with the results and the smooth experience. If we ever need to sell a house again in the future, Gergana will be our first call. Highly recommended!”
