Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Austin’s housing market has seen notable shifts over the past year in this rolling three-month view, with typical home values up about 14 percent year over year even as median list prices are roughly flat. Inventory has expanded with active listings up around 8 percent from last year and months of supply jumping about 69 percent, signaling more options for buyers than a year ago.
Looking at the most recent period ending in September 2026, the typical home value sits near $370,000 and the median list price is just under $360,000. Homes are taking a median of 56 days to sell, similar to last year, while roughly 46 percent of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 100 percent.
Conditions in Austin differ somewhat from the broader Chicago market, where typical sale prices are higher but overall inventory has edged down over the past year. With 3.8 months of supply and 160 pending sales in this latest three-month window, Austin still leans toward sellers but offers more breathing room than in prior years. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these evolving conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an agent who understands the local data and dynamics.
Austin offers residents a welcoming, tight-knit community, affordable housing, ample green space, and easy access to local shops and transit.
Austin in Chicago offers a convenient West Side location with direct access to the Loop via the Green and Blue Lines, Metra, and nearby I‑290. Tree‑lined residential blocks mix classic Chicago bungalows, two‑flats, and larger multifamily buildings, giving buyers a range of price points and space options. Daily needs are close at hand, with neighborhood grocers, pharmacies, and small businesses along corridors such as Chicago Avenue and Madison Street.
Outdoor space is a major asset. Columbus Park, a landmark green space designed by Jens Jensen, provides golf, lagoon views, and ball fields under the Chicago Park District. Residents also enjoy the Austin Town Hall Park and Cultural Center with playgrounds, community events, and an indoor pool. Families often look to nearby schools such as Austin College and Career Academy and local branch libraries, including the Austin Branch Library.
Commuters appreciate that downtown, the Medical District, and Garfield Park are all reachable in a short ride, while nearby Oak Park offers additional dining and shopping. For a broader city experience, spots like Humboldt Park and Logan Square are a few stops away. Transit details from the CTA and park programming from Chicago Park District help residents plan daily life.
Navigating Austin’s housing stock, block‑by‑block character, and transit options is far easier with a local expert. Agent Pronto connects buyers and sellers with agents who know Austin well, reducing stress at every step of the move.

“Kim Wirtz from Wirtz reality did an amazing job marketing my house in Lockport. It pretty much sold in one day! Thank you Kim for your expertise in the area. I would and will recommend you to everyone I know.”
“Renee is an incredibly knowledgeable agent that has a lot of experience, cares about her clients, and is trustworthy !! She knows the ins and outs of current real estate markets and how to strategically price a property so that it will sell in a timely manner but with the highest yield!! She has sold two of our properties over the last eight years (one in Illinois and one in Wisconsin) and we received more than we expected on each of the sales!! We cannot recommend her highly enough! Thank you so much, Renee!!”
“Our real estate agent, Nicole Canny, from Mike McCatty office is fantastic and I highly recommend her to everyone. She has been looking for the perfect house for my daughter and husband and their family for about 2 years now as they had certain requirements for a new house and a certain area they wanted to live in also. Nicole was persistent and she finally found the perfect home for them and the purchase all went quickly, smoothly and was a great experience overall. Thanks to Nicole Canny and now she will be able to sell their old house also.”
“This was our second time using Daniel and he did a fantastic job helping us sell our current home and buy a new home. We had a lot of questions and he was always available and responsive to answer. I appreciated that he gave us his thoughts throughout the process, but also made it clear that every decision was ultimately ours to make. During the buying process, he really went above and beyond by getting more information on what the seller was motivated by, which helped us make a strong offer, and I believe really helped us land our home. On the selling side, we needed to sell our home quickly and Daniel was very well prepared with comps, open houses, and tours which helped us land an offer quickly. Overall, I highly recommend Daniel and will definitely use him again in the future!”
“Stephany and her team were great. They were proactive, led me thru the process accordingly and were very knowledgeable on all aspects of the sale and purchasing side. Definitely recommend and will be working again with Stephany in the future.”
“Selling our first home was emotional, and we couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Brittany. When our first offer fell through, she had us under contract with a second offer within 24 hours! Her unwavering confidence and steady reassurance helped us feel at ease during such an uncertain time, especially as first-time sellers. Brittany supported us every step of the way, always making time to listen, answer our questions, and talk through our concerns. We felt heard, cared for, and confident that she had our best interests at heart. This was our second real estate transaction with Brittany, and we would never work with anyone else. We’re so grateful for her dedication, expertise, and kindness. We cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“After living in our home for nearly 20 years, we decided it was time to downsize. We weren’t sure what to fix before listing or how to choose an asking price. Ryan walked through the house with us and helped us prioritize a few small improvements. When offers came in, he explained the price, contingencies, and timing so we could compare them comfortably. We appreciated his regular updates, especially while coordinating our move. Having someone explain each step made leaving a longtime home easier.”
“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.”
“We were referred to Tracy in our move from downtown to the suburbs, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She made what can be a stressful process feel easy and manageable from start to finish. Tracy was both professional and personal, detail-oriented, responsive, and always quick to act when it mattered. Her deep knowledge of the local market and strong connections were invaluable throughout our purchase. We would wholeheartedly recommend Tracy to anyone looking to buy a home!”
“I've worked with Shawn Jones for nearly 10 years. He helped me find my first apartment, and first home after getting married. He is a deeply considerate, caring, and experienced agent. I can't recommend him highly enough.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Dan has done an amazing job for us as we’ve both bought and sold homes with him. He’s a professional that is focused on every detail from start to finish. If you’re looking for an agent who takes the stress and burden off … he’s your person. He knows the market and will work hard to get you what you need.”
“I chose Helen because I knew I could count on her knowledge of the market as well as the neighborhoods of Chicago. She was incredibly knowledgeable throughout the entire process and always made me feel confident in her ability to address any questions or concerns I had. In fact, any question, concern, or issue that came up was addressed immediately. She was unbelievably responsive throughout the entire process. Purchasing a home can feel stressful and overwhelming at times, but Helen’s level of communication and follow through made all the difference. This is actually my second time using Helen as a realtor. A few years ago, she also sold a condo for me, and the confidence I had in her skills then was exactly why I contacted her again when I was looking for a new home. I would highly recommend Helen to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home!”
“Jakeshia Thomas provided a great service. She helped us navigate a concurrent closing deal involving multiple real estate transactions, She repeated us, the buyers. She went above and beyond, making our real estate experience smooth and stress-free. Her level of professionalism and patience when working with first-time is unmatched. I can’t say enough positive things about her.”
“We had an amazing experience working with Primal and cannot recommend him highly enough! From the beginning, he was incredibly responsive to every question we had—no matter how big or small. We truly appreciated how kind and patient he was with us, especially as we changed our minds multiple times about location and price. He never made us feel rushed or pressured, and instead took the time to help us find the right fit. What really stood out was how honest and down-to-earth he is. He pointed out things we would have never considered on our own, which made us feel informed and confident in our decision-making process. It was clear he genuinely had our best interests at heart. He worked so hard on our behalf and ultimately helped us secure a beautiful apartment that checked all of our (many) boxes. Even with his busy schedule, he consistently went above and beyond in his communication and support. Primal is everything you could want in a realtor: knowledgeable, honest, kind, compassionate, and friendly. We HIGHLY recommend working with him for any real estate needs, whether you're looking to rent an apartment or buy a house. He will go above and beyond to help you find exactly what you're looking for!”

She also recommend a great real estate lawyer who was on top of everything. When things got a little messy, Michelle was on top of everything and made the right calls that got my house sold with a quick sale that I really needed. She is the best.”
“She's was amazing from start to finish. Helped me close as soon as possible. And spent time helping find our perfect home. Set us with a great lawyer! She worked well on communication and keeping us informed throughout the process. She did so well that I recommended to help my mother sell her home.”
“Working with Dontae was an absolute pleasure. He made the entire home-buying process easy and stress-free, always taking the time to explain things clearly and answer any questions I had.

I’m grateful for his help and would recommend Dontae to anyone looking for a new home.”
