Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).

North Center’s rolling three-month snapshot shows a busy but slightly tightening pipeline of homes. Active listings are up a bit from a year ago while homes sold have also increased, indicating steady buyer demand even as new listings jumped about 12 percent year over year.

Contract activity has shifted compared with last year, with pending sales essentially flat while months of supply dropped by about one-fifth to 1.8 months, reinforcing the area’s seller’s market status. Homes are also moving a bit faster than a year ago, with median days on market edging down and more than 57 percent of properties going off-market within two weeks.

Pricing has reacted to this strong demand, as the typical home value is up a little over 9 percent year over year and the average sale-to-list ratio sits around 104 percent. A larger share of homes are selling above list price than last year, with roughly 58 percent closing over asking, and North Center’s prices stand well above the broader Chicago median even as citywide values rise. In this kind of fast-moving, inventory-constrained environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in connecting with a skilled local agent who understands these trends.

“Brittany was so confident and optimistic from day one and made herself available any time of day, with very prompt communication on any request or update! She came prepared before even meeting me, educated on comparisons and providing examples from the start! She even had a strategy, and always thought in the markets shoes, determining when is the best day, or even time of day to update or post my listing! She had my back the whole time, and gave her honest opinion and advice for counter offers, and asking price, while also respecting my decision the whole time! I am thankful she helped me sell my townhome, in under 40 days on the market! 👏👏”

“We weren’t sure how to compare the offers on our house beyond the price. Ryan walked us through the financing, contingencies, and closing dates so we understood the differences. He was patient with our questions and kept us updated as we moved toward closing. We appreciated being able to reach him when something came up.”

“Over a Decade of Trust, Loyalty, and Exceptional Service — 5 Stars! When I moved to Chicago over 10 years ago, Blake Galler was the broker who helped me find my very first apartment. Little did I know that would be the beginning of not only a long-standing professional relationship, but also a genuine friendship. A few years later, Blake helped me purchase my first home, which also happened to be his very first sale in Chicago! It's been incredible to watch his career and business grow over the years, and I'm proud to have been a small part of that journey. More than a decade later, Blake continues to be someone I trust wholeheartedly. I've referred countless friends, colleagues, and personal connections to him because I know they'll receive the same exceptional service, honesty, and dedication that I've experienced firsthand. What truly sets Blake apart is that he doesn't just treat you like another transaction. He builds relationships. He's incredibly responsive, follows through on his promises, knows his market, and genuinely cares about the people he represents. Whether you're renting your first apartment, buying your first home, or navigating your next real estate move, Blake brings the same level of commitment and personal attention every single time. In an industry where relationships can sometimes feel transactional, Blake is the real deal. He's earned my trust, my loyalty, and, most importantly, my friendship. Over 10 years later, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a broker who truly delivers. Five stars aren't enough!”

“In today’s world, when reviewing a product and/or business, Artificial Intelligence tends to be used to get it done in a fast and efficient manner. That would be an absolute disservice to Miriam’s work product and personality. She is genuine. She is responsive. She is intelligent. She is kind. My favorite aspect of Miriam’s work is her past experience working at a property management company. She understands how a building is run, the importance of the building’s budget, and other minor details you would never even think of. She is simply the best, and you should definitely give her the opportunity to help you find your new home!”

“I highly recommend working with Cesar. One of the things I liked best about working with him was that he really seemed to have my best interests at heart. This man will be pulling out his phone light checking basement corners for any signs of mold or water and checking above every stove to see if there’s a proper vent or not. He noticed many things on walk throughs that my parents and I may have just breezed right past and he makes sure to point out the things he notices, good or bad. They say never trust a sales person but idk, I think Cesar’s just in it for the love of the game at this point. I dragged this man to a LOT of houses and he never once rushed me. He was very insistent that we need to find the right fit for me and that I not go past the amount of money I was comfortable with. This was my first time buying a home so I had about 80,000 questions and he was always happy to talk through any questions or concerns. He’s a fun guy to work with as well. In these trying times you need a sense of humor or the home buying process will be miserable. All in all I would definitely recommend working with him.”

“Renee is an incredibly knowledgeable agent that has a lot of experience, cares about her clients, and is trustworthy !! She knows the ins and outs of current real estate markets and how to strategically price a property so that it will sell in a timely manner but with the highest yield!! She has sold two of our properties over the last eight years (one in Illinois and one in Wisconsin) and we received more than we expected on each of the sales!! We cannot recommend her highly enough! Thank you so much, Renee!!”

“Scott has been an absolute pleasure to work with for the sale of our condo and now for purchasing our new home. His marketing tactics really helped with scheduling consistent showings for our condo, ultimately resulting in a 30 day close! Timing was of the essence for this particular sale and he was able to get it done with his timely follow-ups, expertise, and extensive knowledge. Not only did he make the process so smooth, he was also easily accessible and available for any questions we had. He can really do it all - from coming to fix a broken lock box to having a successful close all together. I could not recommend Scott enough for everything he has done for us!”

“Daniel had helped us in the past with the purchase of our first home so it was an easy decision when we decided it was time to move again to use him. He was accommodating, helpful and gave insight when we were looking for a new house in a new area. He listened to our wants and pointed things out we may not have noticed ourselves. This time we used Daniel for the sale of our condo and the purchase of our new home and was attentive, engaged & made both the purchase and sale happen seamlessly. I highly recommend Daniel to anyone selling or buying! With him you will find someone who genuinely wants to help with the difficult process of buying / selling.”

“Laura is hard working, dedicated, and responsive. She understood the challenges of a cash-only sale and made things happen that would have been dropped by less motivated realtors. As my listing agent she closed a sale on a property that was very difficult to sell at a sales price that other realtors balked at. She earned every penny of her commission. Hire her! You won’t regret it.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better team than Shane and Andrew! We saw every house we asked to see and they were always available to answer questions. As first time homebuyers, we did not know what to expect, and they made sure to walk us through the process so we felt educated and confident in each decision we made. Their knowledge and guidance made for a smooth and stress free experience. They also made sure we had trusted inspectors and professionals of other services we needed that added to our great experience. We truly appreciate their communication, patience, and hard work to ensure we got our perfect home! We can’t recommend Dorazio Real Estate enough!”

They were quick to respond when we had questions. They accommodated us as by grouping showings as best as possible. Carrie was always open to a call to help walk us through the options and negotiations which was greatly appreciated. 10/10 would recommend!”
