Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Austin’s rolling three-month numbers point to solid price growth over the past year, with the typical home value up about 8 percent year over year. At the same time, inventory and sales volume have eased, as active listings are down around 11 percent and homes sold are also lower than a year ago.
In the latest period ending July 2026, the typical home value is about $376,000 and the median list price is slightly higher at roughly $386,000, reflecting sellers’ confidence. Conditions lean toward sellers with about 3.7 months of supply, yet this is considerably higher than a year ago, indicating more options for buyers than in the recent past.
Buyer demand still shows up clearly in how homes are selling, with just over half closing above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio hovering a bit above 101 percent. With homes typically spending 57 days on the market and local prices running below the broader Chicago median, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with an agent who understands these trends and can guide them through the Austin market.
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.

“We worked with Andrew McCatty and he could not have made the process smoother! He was very responsive, prepared, and showcased the house spectacularly - we had an offer in 4 days! Andrew worked with Mike to put together the listing and it was excellent. We had an independent appraisal done before we chose the McCattys and we are so glad we got a second opinion. I cannot recommend them enough!”
