Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
Inventory in New City has tightened over the past year, with active listings down more than 18 percent in this rolling three-month view. New listings have fallen even faster year over year, dropping about a third, which helps explain why months of supply has risen to 5 despite fewer homes on the market. Contract activity has cooled compared with last year, as homes sold are down about 21 percent and pending sales are off nearly 19 percent.
Home values in the neighborhood have been relatively steady, with the typical home value essentially flat compared with a year ago while the broader Chicago market has seen prices rise more than 6 percent. Sellers are seeing a bit less pricing power than before, as only about one in five sales close above list and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just over 96 percent.
Homes are taking notably longer to go under contract, with the median days on market jumping compared with last year and now near three months. That extra time on market, combined with balanced supply, suggests buyers have more room to negotiate even though New City is still classified as a seller’s market. With these mixed signals and changing dynamics, both buyers and sellers in New City can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with an experienced local agent who knows how to navigate this environment.

“Selling a home can be emotionally and physically exhausting. Kim Wirtz took control of the process and led me through it. She was knowledgeable, responsive, and patient. I would recommend Kim to sell your home.”

“Originally we were referred by our first lender and we could not have been more fortunate to work with Vicky and Sam. They were professional and realistic regarding our home search. We had not purchased a home in a very long time and Vicky was patient and understanding and was so attentive. avidly referred us to our second lender (the first was not communicative) and it was wonderful. Overall the whole experience was great! Thank you for helping us find our dream home!”

“Working with Tracy to buy our home was a great experience and she was always available and communicative even as we navigated some difficult parts of the negotiation with the seller. She was personally at every visit and even at the inspection and closing, going way above and beyond my expectations and previous experiences with buying agents. Thanks to her we found a home for our family and while we don't plan to buy in the near future I'd be happy to work with her again and again. Thanks Tracy!”

“Barb was 1/20 realtors who was willing to work with me in the beginning over 9 years ago. This is when I first purchased my home. I was cheap buyer. It went without saying I was going to be using her for the sale of the home 9 years later. She handled the hurdles flawlessly and talked me through and coached me the entire way. To say I appreciate her is an understatement. I sold my home after we relocated it of state and she coordinated every logistic of that sale on my behalf to he best of her ability. I recommend her without fail and would point every person in her direction that has a need for a solid realtor.”

“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. We closed sale of house 3 weeks from time of first listing. I'd worked with Emir before and hope to do so again in the future.”

“Our house could be considered high end property in the neighborhood. Cinny worked hard to get it under the contract in a week and sold our house a little over a month. We are happy about the result. During the process, there were ups and downs which made us nervious. Cinny listened to our concerns and gave us professional advice.”
