Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Inventory in New City has tightened in this rolling three-month view, with active listings down more than 20 percent from a year ago and new listings also falling nearly 20 percent. Homes sold, however, are slightly higher year over year, and pending sales are only modestly lower, showing that buyers are still active even as options shrink. With months of supply dropping sharply compared with last year to around four months, conditions lean toward sellers, though not as strongly as in some hotter areas of Chicago.
Pricing has been moving upward as supply has pulled back. The typical home value is up about 10 percent year over year, while the median list price has climbed more than 20 percent over the same period. Compared with the wider Chicago market, New City remains more affordable, with values well below the citywide median sale price.
Days on market provide another clue to how the balance is shifting. Homes are now taking about 52 days to sell in this rolling three-month window, similar to a year ago but much faster than just a few months earlier, and more than a third of recent sales closed above the asking price with an average sale-to-list ratio near 98 percent. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate this evolving landscape can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local real estate agent who understands New City’s trends and opportunities.

“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.”
“Renee treats customers professionally and at the same time as friends. She goes above and beyond what is required on all facits of the process.

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.”
