Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Elmhurst’s rolling three-month snapshot through July 2026 shows a modestly tighter inventory picture with 315 active listings, up slightly from a year ago, while new listings have risen about 4 percent year over year. Contract activity has kept pace, with homes sold up nearly 9 percent and pending sales edging almost 2 percent higher than last year, contributing to a lean 1.7 months of supply.
Pricing has moved upward in response to this steady demand, as the typical home value over the period is about 6 percent higher than a year earlier and the median list price is up more than 7 percent year over year. Sellers are still achieving strong outcomes, with the average sale-to-list ratio just above 100 percent and more than 41 percent of homes closing above their list price.
Time on market has shortened notably compared with a year ago, with the median days on market now at 44 days, and nearly half of homes going off the market within two weeks. These trends reflect a seller-favored environment, yet rising values and active turnover also present opportunities for buyers who move decisively. Whether you are aiming to compete successfully as a buyer or maximize your position as a seller, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local Elmhurst agent who understands these conditions and can guide your next move.

“We worked with Andrew McCatty and he could not have made the process smoother! He was very responsive, prepared, and showcased the house spectacularly - we had an offer in 4 days! Andrew worked with Mike to put together the listing and it was excellent. We had an independent appraisal done before we chose the McCattys and we are so glad we got a second opinion. I cannot recommend them enough!”
“I've worked with Shawn Jones for nearly 10 years. He helped me find my first apartment, and first home after getting married. He is a deeply considerate, caring, and experienced agent. I can't recommend him highly enough.”
“Rose Riodan, did excellently well, always available for phone calls, chat and prompt with emails. Gave great advice and recommendations that supported making informed decisions.”
“Kim was easy to work with. She explained everything very clearly, which was something important to me as a first time seller. Her attention to detail and open communication were greatly appreciated and I highly recommend working with her.”
“We've known Brittany for many years and we have had experience working with her in the past. We chose to work with her once more because of our wonderful experience In the past. I would highly recommend her because of her professional approach and her genuine interest to provide the best to her customers.”
“Paula was fantastic! She was knowledgeable, very responsive, and was able to walk me through the process step-by-step as a first-time seller. Would highly recommend to anyone and everyone!”
“I previously used Jeffry Phillips to sell a house I inherited. It was a very emotional time and he was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and gave suggestions of things that could be done to the house prior to selling it. Because that experience was so positive and he was so professional I utilized his services when it was time for me to sell my house. When it came time to sell my home, he was professional and extremely knowledgeable about the Garfield Ridge neighborhood. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends family, and neighbors if they are buying or selling a house.”
“Katherine Rubis was very patient with me during the year that I was looking for homes. She was always available to discuss our next steps or to show me new listings. Every single part of the process that Katherine handled was very smooth and easy for me. She is an outstanding agent and I will definitely call her when I am in the market to sell or buy a home again. There is nothing else she could have done to make me more satisfied with working with her. I have zero complaints.”
“Laura is Amazing!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Best realtor! Has helped us with two properties and always easy to work with and super prompt with communication. Will be using him for future properties!”
“Would use Lizette again, very easy to work with & very professional. Would recommend here 100% to Friends.”

“Miguel was amazing 10/10 definitely recommend! He is very knowledgeable and super attentive, he really made this first time home buying process very smooth and the best of all is that he was very understanding.”
“Nancy Silwa is an experienced realtor who knows her profession. She knows, and in fact lives in the area, where I was selling my house. This was a bonus as she really had a handle on the market. She walked with me every step of the way so that I understood the process. I was selling a home I had lived in for 43 years. Nancy understood the emotional impact of this decision and gently helped me stay focused on the task at hand: sell the house. She found the perfect buyers. A young couple who will make my house their home. Knowing this made selling my home a little easier. I would and indeed have recommended Nancy to others. She is simply THE BEST!”
“Juan helped us immensely in buying our first home and answered every question we had. Would 100% recommend.”
“Antonio was always available for questions and always prompt in his replies. An ecellent experience.”
“We were originally with a different agent looking for our first home when after a few months we transitioned to Mike Long. He has been involved in over a dozen real estate transactions within our family. When had our first call with Mike, we could tell he was an advocate for what we were looking for and positioned himself as someone we could trust navigating our home search. In one of the most challenging real estate markets and after looking at three dozen homes, we knew Mike was not a quitter. His optimism carried us through some of the most difficult weeks of our search. However, day in and day out, he brought humor, a shoulder to cry on and ensured that we didn’t stray from our core non-negotiables. Mike Long is an exceptional realtor.”
“I had an amazing experience working with Erick when purchasing my new home. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and offered valuable insights into the housing market. Erick was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and responsive, answering all my questions and guiding me through every step of the process. The process of finding the perfect home can be overwhelming, but Erick made it seamless. He was always available to schedule viewings at my convenience, and when we found the right place, he worked tirelessly to ensure my offer was competitive and that all the paperwork was handled efficiently. Thanks to Erick, I now own a home that I absolutely love. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and professional real estate agent.”
