Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year over year in Carol Stream, home values have climbed notably, with the typical home value up about 13 percent in this rolling three-month view through September 2026. Over the same period, homes sold increased roughly 8 percent while active listings rose modestly, pointing to steady buyer demand despite more options than last year.
Looking at the latest rolling three months, supply has tightened sharply even as prices rose. Months of supply is down nearly 40 percent from a year ago to around 1.7 months, keeping conditions tilted toward sellers even though the share of homes selling above list price has slipped slightly compared with last year.
On the activity side, new listings have fallen more than 10 percent year over year while pending sales still managed to edge up almost 5 percent, a combination that suggests buyers are competing over a smaller flow of fresh inventory. Even with median days on market hovering in the mid‑40s, more than half of homes go under contract within two weeks, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto expert to help them find the right real estate agent for their goals.

“This is the third home purchase in Naperville where Rose Riordan has served as my realtor. She is excellent! Rose is knowledgeable, displays excellent expertise and communicates every step of the way. I recommend her to my friends! Thanks for your help Rose!”
“We can't recommend Brittany enough. She was extremely personable, patient, and a clear communicator from day one which was as honestly years ago when we thought we were moving...then didn't...then did. Her knowledge of the western suburbs is awesome, especially when it comes to crucial inspection details. We would have never even thought to ask about radon checks or sewer scopes (as well as warning about things like oil drums in crawl spaces) but she guided us through it all and made sure we were completely protected. Unlike other realtors we’ve worked with in the past, she truly fought for us every step of the way while being so understanding of our specific needs. Highly recommend Brittany and so happy we chose her.”
“Mike is very professional and knowledgeable about the local market. He sold our house in less than a week. We are very pleased with the outcome.”
“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.”
“We had an amazing experience working with Rizwan to purchase our first home. From our very first meeting at a coffee shop—where he took the time to understand our priorities and clearly explain the entire process—he was the perfect guide for us. We found Rizwan to be highly competent, reliable, and a deeply skilled negotiator. Most importantly (and indeed this is quite rare in our world), we always felt he had our best interests at heart and never rushed us into a decision. When the perfect house came along, he acted quickly to secure it with the right offer. We highly recommend him! P.S. He's also very fun to work with!”
“Holly was everything and more I could ask for when I needed someone to help me with the sale of my home. After moving across country, holly orchestrated everything; from pictures to showings, to letting junk removal in, to double checking things for me. She was always a phone call away and incredibly responsive to any inquiries I had (there were a lot). Being states away now from my property, Holly made me feel at ease. And with settling into a new place and a new job, suddenly the sale of my house was on the back of my mind because I knew Holly could take care of everything. Listed with gorgeous pictures right away, four offers in less than a week and a half, and a final offer that was above asking, she did everything I needed and more. Couldn’t recommend a better realtor for your needs.”
“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.”
“My realtor nick and his team were phenomenal. It was my first time buying a home and they answered all my questions and helped me every step of the way. Made the whole process very easy. You definitely want them in your corner when purchasing a home.”
“With Diana’s marketing expertise and beautiful professional photos of our house, our house got $100k overasking within the first 24hrs of our listing going live. She did an amazing job protecting our interest and shielding us from random inquiries. We had more than 14 showings in 48 hrs, multiple offers, and several bids.”
“We could not have asked for a better realtor. Susan was there for us through each and every step of selling our house. Not only is she a wonderful and kind person, but her experience and expertise are unmatched! Her communication and response is excellent and she is extremely knowledgeable. She sold our house for a significant amount over asking and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the services she provided for us. We highly recommend her and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again in the future.”
“Jackie was the greatest at helping me find a home that was best for me! She’s very transparent about everything going on in the market and only wants what’s best for you. I’m so grateful for her!”
“Shannon is the definition of professionalism, and reliability. First, she helped sell our house, fast and for its maximum value. While other homes sat, ours sold! Secondly, there is no way my wife and I would have ever found our dream home if it weren’t for Shannon’s deep real estate knowledge, and patience with us buyers. This was my 4th real estate transaction, my wife’s 1st and I’ve never had a better experience with a realtor. 10/10 recommendation to anyone in the city or suburbs, no matter your experience with home buying or 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!”
“Carolyn is an exceptional realtor. She is extremely knowledgeable of the areas in which she operates, she is always prepared, and works extremely hard on behalf of her clients. More importantly, she values the relationships she creates, and will go above and beyond for you as a buyer or a seller in any situation. Her marketing plan and positioning strategy allowed us to sell a very unique home in our market quickly and for a price we were extremely happy with. She leaves no stone unturned at any step in the process and will do anything to ensure her clients have a terrific experience. I can't possibly recommend her highly enough, 5 stars isn't enough!”
“Jose made the process incredibly smooth is first-time buyers.”
“We had a great experience working with Giovanni to sell our home in Chicago. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He made everything feel smooth and stress-free, from preparing our home for the market to closing the sale. We always felt like we were in good hands and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. We would highly recommend Giovanni to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
“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 don’t know how she does it, but Marina is truly exceptional at her craft! She helped us close on a house in Mount Prospect, even in the hardest market to buy. I have no words to describe how amazing she is but she doesn’t need them, her work speaks for itself! Thank you always Marina!”
