Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Bureau County
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Bureau County has expanded noticeably, with active listings up over 12 percent from last year and holding steady at 132 homes. Even with this growth, contract activity has been mixed, as homes sold are up slightly year over year while pending sales and new listings are both down double digits.
Pricing is adjusting to these shifting flows, with the typical home value still nearly 14 percent higher than a year ago but down from mid-summer peaks. Median list price is about 8 percent above last year, and sellers are receiving just under 100 percent of their asking price on average, while the share of homes selling above list has edged lower.
Time on market and supply levels point to conditions that still lean toward sellers but with more balance than earlier in the year. Median days on market have risen 17 percent annually to 57 days, and months of supply is around three, higher than last year but similar to the statewide figure. With Bureau County priced well below the Illinois median sale price, buyers and sellers can both benefit from working with an Agent Pronto–recommended agent who understands how to navigate this evolving market.

“Ed and his team were true professionals. He made home buying very easy. His knowledge of the area and house construction took some fear out of the homebuying process. We will use and recommend Ed and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell a house. Thank you for making our homebuying less stressful Ed and Jenn.”
“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.”
“Graham was absolutely wonderful to work with during our out of state move. He kept everything feeling smooth and stress free, stayed in great communication, and was always quick to answer any questions we had. His friendly attitude and willingness to help made the whole selling process so much easier. We truly appreciated all his support and would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor!”
“Calvin is truly a top-class realtor who genuinely cares about his clients. During the entire process of listing my home with him, from the initial listing consultation to closing, he always made time for me, consistently providing professional, courteous, and valuable knowledge. This made the outcome as smooth as possible. The service he provided went above and beyond any realtor I've ever worked with, and I can't recommend him enough.”
“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!”
“Troy is simply a superb realtor....his extensive knowledge and experience cover all facets of the market and home ownership. His understanding of local markets is unmatched blended with the highest standards of professional integrity. He is a clear communicator and remains exceptionally calm under pressure coupled with his honest, caring approach to all aspects of the process of purchasing a home. Look no further. He's your realtor.”
“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.”
“Working with Damien was great, he is was always willing to help with anything I had a question about. He made the home buying experience awesome, as it has been a while since I have had to buy a home.”
“I enjoyed working with David. He was always friendly and answered any questions that I asked. David was very knowledgeable and patient. He helped make the sale quick and easy. Would recommend him to anyone needing his service. I am thankful that we had him.”
“Was prompt to keep information flowing and easy to work with. Talked about the price and what it will take to sell the property honestly. Provided me almost instant feedback from potential buyers.”
“Oksana was excellent! She made our condo buying process easy and smooth! Oksana is knowledgeable of the local area and housing market. She is responsive to calls, emails and questions. Her guidance and help was very much appreciated. We can not say enough great things about her! We would recommend Oksana as an agent for anyone!”
“We interviewed 3 different agents from 3 different agencies. One was a recommendation of friends, one other and Christine Thompson were known to us previously. Christine appeared to us to be far and away the most professional. thorough, personable, knowledgable of local conditions and aggressive in her marketing approach. She, and Baird and Warner, far exceeded our highest expectations. Outstanding results!”
