Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Kenwood have both eased in this rolling three-month view, with active listings down sharply from a year ago and new listings down about a quarter. Even with fewer new properties hitting the market, homes sold are only slightly lower year over year, and pending sales have dipped more moderately, signaling steady underlying demand.
Pricing has been relatively stable compared with last year, as the typical home value is up slightly and the median list price has inched higher. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has climbed notably, and the average sale-to-list ratio is now just over 98 percent, suggesting buyers are meeting sellers’ expectations more often.
Conditions have tilted toward sellers, with months of supply in Kenwood above Chicago’s but down significantly from a year earlier, and the market gauge identifying it as a seller’s market. Although median days on market are still elevated compared with last year, they have fallen meaningfully in recent months, pointing to improving momentum for completed sales. Buyers and sellers who want to interpret these shifting trends and move confidently can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands the Kenwood market.

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Steve Goodman and the experience we’ve had working with him over the past 10 years. Steve was my realtor when I purchased my very first condo, and 10 years later, he was right there with us as we sold that condo and purchased what we hope will be our forever home. Having the opportunity to work with the same realtor through such an important chapter of our lives speaks volumes about the trust and confidence we have in him. What sets Steve apart is that he genuinely puts his clients’ best interests first. He is never pushy or focused on simply making a sale. Instead, he takes the time to listen, answer every question, offer honest advice, and make sure you feel comfortable with every decision. He is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile.”

“Was impressed from the beginning when the owner answered the phone and made an appointment within a day or two to come out to the property. When we decided to put the house on the market, they were extremely professional And answered all our questions. The photographer came out promptly, and took amazing pictures of the property. It was listed the next day,and our house sold in less than a week. Andrew McCatty was our broker. He could not have been more knowledgeable or professional. Any questions that we had, Andrew either answered the phone or got back to us very quickly. Highly recommend Andrew and Century 21 Circle. Would only work with them again and would recommend them to family and friends.”

“I previously used Jeffry Phillips to sell a house I inherited. It was a very emotional time and he was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and gave suggestions of things that could be done to the house prior to selling it. Because that experience was so positive and he was so professional I utilized his services when it was time for me to sell my house. When it came time to sell my home, he was professional and extremely knowledgeable about the Garfield Ridge neighborhood. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends family, and neighbors if they are buying or selling a house.”
