Year-over-year, Cragin’s rolling three-month numbers show mixed movement, with typical home values essentially flat while listing prices have pushed noticeably higher. Compared to Chicago overall, the neighborhood’s typical sale price is almost identical, but Cragin is carrying more inventory relative to demand, as months of supply has climbed sharply from a year ago.
In the latest rolling three-month period through May 2026, the typical home value sits around $420,000 and the median list price is about $451,000, reflecting double-digit annual growth in asking prices. Inventory has expanded to 83 active listings and roughly 3.7 months of supply, a large year-over-year rise that points to more options but also a cooler pace than in late 2025.
Homes are taking longer to sell than a year ago, with the median days on market now at 53 even as more than half of listings still go off the market within two weeks. While about 45 percent of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio remains just over 100 percent, both are down compared with last year, suggesting slightly less bidding pressure. Buyers facing these shifting conditions and sellers aiming to price accurately can both benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in connecting with a Cragin agent who understands the current data-driven trends.

“Working with Emir is always a pleasure. He was very helpful in coordinating work on our house for sale, working with vendors and providing valuable feedback on neccesary work vs. potential work items unlikely to generate return.
