“After going through a very difficult experience before, meeting my realtor completely changed the way I felt about the home buying process. After the passing of my husband, I had to go through this process alone, and during such an emotional and overwhelming time, she brought me so much peace of mind and support. What truly makes her different is that she genuinely cares about her clients. She never made me feel like I was just another sale or transaction. She took the time to listen carefully to my needs, requirements, and concerns, and always made sure I felt heard and supported every step of the way. Her professionalism, patience, honesty, and dedication are something rare to find.

Far North Side real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Far North Side real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Far North Side buyers are seeing more options hit the market, with 728 homes listed in March 2026 and 1,107 new listings over the month. Even with that recent 8.66% rise in inventory from the prior month, supply is still down 18.84% compared with last year. Homes are going under contract at a solid pace, with 1,026 pending sales, keeping conditions tilted toward sellers and reflected in a seller's market gauge of 7.
Prices have been pushing upward as inventory tightens compared with last year. The typical home value is about $395,000, up 6.76% year over year and 3.95% from just the prior month, while the median list price is also $395,000 and holding steady month to month.
Timing is playing a bigger role for both sides. Homes are spending about 50.5 days on the market, which is almost 20% faster than a month ago but still roughly 9.78% longer than a year earlier, giving buyers a bit more time to act than last year while still rewarding sellers who price well. Roughly 38.5% of recent sales closed above the list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 1.00, signaling that properly priced homes can still attract strong offers. With typical values in Far North Side slightly below Chicago overall at $395,000 versus $411,050, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in connecting with a skilled local agent to navigate this evolving market.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.

“Emir was a n excellent realtor and he was a professional. I will recommend Emir to family and friends in the future.”
“We worked with Kim Wirtz for the sale of our home at 732 Teal Drive, and she was outstanding throughout the entire process. She spent numerous days helping us navigate the sale, handled multiple offers professionally, and gave us excellent advice on how to approach the contracts and negotiations. When one deal fell through, she immediately had great strategies for relisting the property, managing contingencies, and getting the house sold quickly again. She truly went above and beyond what most realtors would do. Kim was extremely responsive, always available to answer questions, and did a fantastic job communicating with buyers, agents, and everyone involved in the transaction. Her knowledge, professionalism, and dedication made a stressful process much easier. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
“After a bad experience with another Realtor, Kathy was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn't of been more pleased that I went with the recommendation.

She was also extremely responsive at anytime of the day and was always available to answer any questions!!! It was such a relief to have Kathy as my realtor. Truly best in class service!”
