Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
De Pue currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge at 20, but underlying indicators show plenty of leverage for buyers. Inventory is high for a small area, with about 15.8 months of supply in this rolling three-month view, far above typical tight-market levels.
Prices have moved higher over the past year even as listing trends have softened. The typical home value in the latest three-month period is up roughly a quarter year over year, while the median list price is down by about a third, creating a noticeable gap between what recent sales suggest and how new listings are being priced.
Activity patterns highlight how unusual conditions are for both sides. Homes are taking much longer to sell than a year ago, with median days on market jumping more than fivefold even as the share of listings going off market within two weeks is strong, and sales volumes over the period have nearly halved year over year despite new listings more than doubling. In a setting where prices, supply, and speed are pulling in different directions, buyers and sellers in De Pue can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these shifting dynamics.
De Pue offers residents a close-knit community, practical local services, and a welcoming, family-friendly small-town atmosphere that makes everyday life easier and more connected.
De Pue sits along the Illinois River and Lake DePue, offering small-town living with convenient access to regional hubs like Peru, LaSalle, and Princeton. With a compact layout and walkable core, daily errands, school drop-offs, and community events are easy to reach without long commutes.

Nearby Mautino State Fish and Wildlife Area provides trails, hunting, and birding, while Starved Rock State Park is a popular weekend hiking and sightseeing destination within an easy drive.
