Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Forest Park’s rolling three-month data through September 2026 shows mixed year-over-year trends. Typical home values are down about 6 percent from a year ago, even as the median list price is up more than 12 percent. Buyer activity has cooled, with homes sold and pending sales each falling by more than 20 percent compared to last year.
At the same time, inventory has tightened, with active listings dropping about 17 percent year over year. Months of supply has risen to 3.2, up more than 40 percent from last year, suggesting a bit more breathing room for buyers even though conditions are still tilted toward sellers. Homes are spending around 50 days on the market on a typical sale, roughly in line with last year’s pace.
Looking at the latest snapshot, about 45 percent of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is holding right around 100 percent, indicating sellers can still achieve near-asking prices when homes are priced well. With 115 active listings, 71 new listings, and 57 pending sales in this rolling three-month period, both supply and demand are softer than a year ago but still active. Whether you are a buyer trying to navigate shifting prices or a seller aiming to stand out in this evolving market, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Forest Park agent who understands these trends.

“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.”
“Ed and his team were true professionals. He made home buying very easy. His knowledge of the area and house construction took some fear out of the homebuying process. We will use and recommend Ed and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell a house. Thank you for making our homebuying less stressful Ed and Jenn.”
“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.”
“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.”
“We trusted Marek Prus because of his excellent reputation in the real estate business, and he did not disappoint. He did a great job selling our condo, and buying our new townhouse. Marek was diligent, on time and prepared every time. He truly cared about our unique situation. From handling negotiations to resolving last minute hiccups, Marek Prus proved to be an excellent problem solver. Thanks to his vast knowledge and experience, we felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire selling and buying process. We strongly recommend him to anyone! Thank You Marek!”
“We had a great experience working with Giovanni to sell our home in Chicago. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. He made everything feel smooth and stress-free, from preparing our home for the market to closing the sale. We always felt like we were in good hands and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. We would highly recommend Giovanni to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
“He was very informative, always on time and is flexible. Would highly recommend, he helped me find our forever home. He was very patient and communicative throughout the whole process.”
“I had a great experience working with Mr. Danny during my home-buying journey. He was professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer my questions. His guidance made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Mr. Danny paid close attention to my needs and helped me find the right home without any pressure. I truly appreciate his patience, honesty, and dedication. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a house.”
“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 were referred to Tracy in our move from downtown to the suburbs, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She made what can be a stressful process feel easy and manageable from start to finish. Tracy was both professional and personal, detail-oriented, responsive, and always quick to act when it mattered. Her deep knowledge of the local market and strong connections were invaluable throughout our purchase. We would wholeheartedly recommend Tracy to anyone looking to buy a home!”
“Honestly Ariel is an amazing realtor. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and willing to answer all my random questions as a first time homeowner. She clearly explained the process, was patient when looking at a variety of homes over a year, and was a huge help. 10/10 Recommend!”
“As a first-time home buyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor! Sabrina made the entire home-buying process smooth, easy to understand, and stress-free. She was knowledgeable, responsive, and always there to answer my questions. I truly felt supported every step of the way and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home!”
“I highly recommend Jason as a realtor! He was professional, honest, trustworthy, and truly made the process of selling my home feel smooth and stress-free. He was always responsive, knowledgeable, and had my best interests in mind throughout the entire process. I felt confident knowing I was in good hands. Thank you, Jason, for your hard work and professionalism!”
“I have had the pleasure of working with Justina on a variety of properties, including both income-producing and residential real estate. I can say in full confidence that her professionalism and etiquette is profound as she handles every detail with care. Justina truly sees you through every step of the process to ensure a smooth and stress free transition. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and dedicated real estate professional.”
“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!”
“Nicole and team could not have been better. List to close in under two months, with some challenging market conditions near us. Combine that with multiple offers, and 100% of ask and we couldn't be happier. She is thorough, meticulous, and kept us looped in to her thought process on marketing, offers, and closing. She previously helped family members with their purchase, and they were very happy as well. Thanks Nicole.”
“Selling our condo was a much smoother experience than I expected, and I truly have Larry to thank for that. From the very beginning, he was knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly professional. Night or Day, weekday or weekend Larry answered the phone and communicated actively any information about the process to us. A true professional. He guided us through every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and always made us feel confident in the decisions we were making. What impressed me most was his negotiation skills. Larry advocated for our best interests every step of the way and worked hard to secure the best possible outcome. We always felt like he had our back and never settled for less than what our home was worth. If you’re looking for an agent who is honest, strategic, communicative, and genuinely invested in their clients, we can’t recommend Larry Lazar highly enough. Selling a home can be stressful, but he made the entire process seamless. We would absolutely work with him again and recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home.”
