Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Clinton County real estate market. *
September 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Clinton County has been expanding modestly, with active listings up about 22 percent year over year even as months of supply has dropped sharply to 1.6, reinforcing its seller’s market designation. Contract activity is mixed, as homes sold have surged more than 70 percent from a year ago while new listings are down over 30 percent, suggesting buyers are quickly absorbing what comes on the market.
Pricing has softened compared with last year, with the typical home value down about 7 percent and the median list price lower by roughly 4 percent year over year. At the same time, homes are still transacting very close to asking, with an average sale-to-list ratio just under 100 percent and only a slight year-over-year increase, pointing to steady negotiation dynamics despite lower headline prices.
Timing trends show a median of 44 days on market, a bit faster than a year ago, and nearly 29 percent of homes are going off market within two weeks, indicating that well-positioned properties move quickly. Compared with the broader Illinois market, Clinton County offers lower typical sale prices than the state as a whole while operating with tighter supply than Illinois’s 2.9 months of inventory. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands the Clinton County market.

Families appreciate parks like Northside Park in Breese and the walking paths around Carlyle City Park. Local schools, including Central Community High School, anchor the community and are close to most neighborhoods, which keeps school-day logistics manageable.
Everyday errands stay simple, with grocery options, healthcare facilities, and independent shops in town, and expanded retail choices in nearby O'Fallon and Belleville. Dining ranges from casual cafes to local favorites near the Carlyle Lake Main Dam Recreation Area. Public resources such as the Clinton County Courthouse and local libraries keep services centralized and accessible.

“Kathi did an outstanding job in assisting us with the sale of our family home. Her attention to every aspect of the process put us at great ease. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy a property. She's your go to gal!”
“Kim Wirtz from Wirtz reality did an amazing job marketing my house in Lockport. It pretty much sold in one day! Thank you Kim for your expertise in the area. I would and will recommend you to everyone I know.”
“We had an amazing experience working with Rizwan to purchase our first home. From our very first meeting at a coffee shop—where he took the time to understand our priorities and clearly explain the entire process—he was the perfect guide for us. We found Rizwan to be highly competent, reliable, and a deeply skilled negotiator. Most importantly (and indeed this is quite rare in our world), we always felt he had our best interests at heart and never rushed us into a decision. When the perfect house came along, he acted quickly to secure it with the right offer. We highly recommend him! P.S. He's also very fun to work with!”
“She was great to work with. Professional, personable, responsive, and reliable. I highly recommend working with her.”
“Lisa and Donna have both been wonderful to work with. I bought my 1st home with them and returned to them to recently sell my home. They made both the buying and sell process seamless and easy. They were always readily available to answer questions and went above and beyond to find me a perfect home at the time and to find the perfect buyer when we were ready for a change.”
“I have worked with Barb for years and she was so patient and understanding to my situation and was amazing with communication.”
“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!!”
“Our real estate agent, Nicole Canny, from Mike McCatty office is fantastic and I highly recommend her to everyone. She has been looking for the perfect house for my daughter and husband and their family for about 2 years now as they had certain requirements for a new house and a certain area they wanted to live in also. Nicole was persistent and she finally found the perfect home for them and the purchase all went quickly, smoothly and was a great experience overall. Thanks to Nicole Canny and now she will be able to sell their old house also.”
“We could not have asked for a better realtor. Susan was there for us through each and every step of selling our house. Not only is she a wonderful and kind person, but her experience and expertise are unmatched! Her communication and response is excellent and she is extremely knowledgeable. She sold our house for a significant amount over asking and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the services she provided for us. We highly recommend her and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again in the future.”
“Katie is very knowledgeable, thorough and kind. She worked very diligently with me to find an apartment/condo to rent! She was able to give me recommendations that I would not have found or considered on my own. I could not have asked for a better agent to work with! I have lived in a house for 30 years and really had no idea what to look for when choosing and apartment or condo. She helped me find the perfect new home, a lovely condo for rent!! Katie stayed on top of everything from setting up appointments to following through with my new landlady. She is intelligent, hardworking sweet and thoughtful. I highly recommend her to anyone renting or buying!!”
“This was our second time using Daniel and he did a fantastic job helping us sell our current home and buy a new home. We had a lot of questions and he was always available and responsive to answer. I appreciated that he gave us his thoughts throughout the process, but also made it clear that every decision was ultimately ours to make. During the buying process, he really went above and beyond by getting more information on what the seller was motivated by, which helped us make a strong offer, and I believe really helped us land our home. On the selling side, we needed to sell our home quickly and Daniel was very well prepared with comps, open houses, and tours which helped us land an offer quickly. Overall, I highly recommend Daniel and will definitely use him again in the future!”
“It was a pleasure working with Emily. She went above and beyond and very knowledgeable with any questions i may have had. She was always available late nights and weekends. I would highly recommend Emily.”
“We had such a great experience working with Victoria and Sam! They were always quick to respond whenever we sent a home we were interested in or had questions. They were willing to go on as many tours as it took to help us find the right fit and were honest about steering us away from homes with structural concerns. It was clear they genuinely had our best interests at heart and wanted us to find a home we’d love. They’re also both funny and easy to get along with, which made the entire process that much more enjoyable. We couldn’t recommend them enough!”
“Shannon is the definition of professionalism, and reliability. First, she helped sell our house, fast and for its maximum value. While other homes sat, ours sold! Secondly, there is no way my wife and I would have ever found our dream home if it weren’t for Shannon’s deep real estate knowledge, and patience with us buyers. This was my 4th real estate transaction, my wife’s 1st and I’ve never had a better experience with a realtor. 10/10 recommendation to anyone in the city or suburbs, no matter your experience with home buying or selling.”
“I highly recommend working with Meldina! She is incredibly accommodating and always willing to show the properties, even on the short notice. She is very knowledgeable about the location we are exploring and her positive attitude, amazing energy and solution oriented mindset truly make a difference.Her professionalism and enthusiasm make the entire experience enjoyable. Thank you, Meldina, for you outstanding support and dedication.”
“Allison is the BEST!!!!! This is the second time we have used Allison's help to find a home. And we are far from easy to please. Allison is patient and will do everything in her power to find you what you are looking for and not just any house. And she will bend over backwards to drive over a 30 mins away just for you to tell her it's not the one. We love her and will be using her very soon to sell our current home once we move into our new home!!!”
“Jose made the process incredibly smooth is first-time buyers.”
“Stephany and her team were great. They were proactive, led me thru the process accordingly and were very knowledgeable on all aspects of the sale and purchasing side. Definitely recommend and will be working again with Stephany in the future.”
“Selling our first home was emotional, and we couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Brittany. When our first offer fell through, she had us under contract with a second offer within 24 hours! Her unwavering confidence and steady reassurance helped us feel at ease during such an uncertain time, especially as first-time sellers. Brittany supported us every step of the way, always making time to listen, answer our questions, and talk through our concerns. We felt heard, cared for, and confident that she had our best interests at heart. This was our second real estate transaction with Brittany, and we would never work with anyone else. We’re so grateful for her dedication, expertise, and kindness. We cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“After living in our home for nearly 20 years, we decided it was time to downsize. We weren’t sure what to fix before listing or how to choose an asking price. Ryan walked through the house with us and helped us prioritize a few small improvements. When offers came in, he explained the price, contingencies, and timing so we could compare them comfortably. We appreciated his regular updates, especially while coordinating our move. Having someone explain each step made leaving a longtime home easier.”
