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

Inventory in Fox Lake has grown compared with last year, with active listings up nearly 20 percent in this rolling three-month view. Even with more homes on the market, months of supply is still only 2.4, keeping conditions tilted toward sellers. Contract activity is steady, as pending sales are almost unchanged year over year while closed sales are up more than 12 percent.

Prices have pushed higher as demand absorbs the added inventory. The typical home value over the latest three months is up almost 11 percent compared with the same period a year ago, and the median list price has also risen, though more modestly. Homes are taking a bit longer to sell than last year, with the median days on market around 52 days, yet a solid share of properties still go under contract within two weeks, showing buyers are moving quickly on the right homes.

Pricing dynamics show sellers maintaining leverage, but with subtle shifts. Just under a third of sales close above list price, slightly higher than a year ago, and the average sale-to-list ratio is close to 99 percent, indicating limited room for negotiation. At the same time, a higher months-of-supply figure than last year suggests buyers have a bit more choice than before. In this kind of mixed, fast-moving environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in connecting with a Fox Lake agent who understands the latest trends.



Learn more about what Fox Lake has to offer.

Fox Lake offers residents a scenic lakeside lifestyle with abundant outdoor recreation, a tight-knit community spirit, extensive parks and trails, and convenient access to local shops and services.

Fox Lake stands out from nearby lake communities like McHenry and Grayslake with its rare mix of Chain O’Lakes access and a modest, small-town core that still feels personal. Life here revolves around the water, from summer boating to winter ice fishing, yet daily needs remain close at hand along Grand Avenue and around the historic downtown.

Residents spend weekends at lakefront spots and marinas, or exploring the nearby Chain O’Lakes State Park for hiking, paddling, and camping. Families appreciate resources like Grant Community High School and the Fox Lake District Library, along with youth sports and community events that help newcomers connect quickly. Dining ranges from classic supper clubs to casual pubs, while local favorites such as Whistle Stop Cafe give the village a familiar feel.

Commuters value the Fox Lake Metra station for service into Chicago, and nearby communities like Round Lake and Antioch expand shopping and employment options without losing the relaxed pace of lake life.

The Fox Lake market can move quickly, with waterfront and water-access homes attracting strong interest, and more traditional in-town properties offering relative value compared with Lake County as a whole. Whether you are planning a first purchase, downsizing from a longtime lake home, or selling to move closer to the city, timing and preparation matter. Agent Pronto can connect you with a Fox Lake real estate agent who understands both the community and current market conditions, helping buyers and sellers move confidently.

“Working with Anthony was an absolute game-changer for us as first-time home buyers. He knows the local market inside and out, he answered all of our (many) questions at any time of the day, and not only was he very professional and reliable, but we knew throughout the process that he genuinely cared about us and our satisfaction. Now we have our dream home! I'm so glad we had Anthony working with us throughout this process, and we highly recommend him!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Steve Goodman and the experience we’ve had working with him over the past 10 years. Steve was my realtor when I purchased my very first condo, and 10 years later, he was right there with us as we sold that condo and purchased what we hope will be our forever home. Having the opportunity to work with the same realtor through such an important chapter of our lives speaks volumes about the trust and confidence we have in him. What sets Steve apart is that he genuinely puts his clients’ best interests first. He is never pushy or focused on simply making a sale. Instead, he takes the time to listen, answer every question, offer honest advice, and make sure you feel comfortable with every decision. He is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile.”

“Catherine Terpstra made herself available to us in our search for a house as we were moving from out of state back to IL. As soon as we contacted her, it felt like she dropped everything "just for us". (We know she was attending to other clinets, as well!) She was very efficient in setting up houses for us to tour, within and without our pricing perameters. She "heard us" in regard to the "non-negotiables" we had for a house for which we were looking. She printed out pertinent infomration on each place for us. We were in a time-crunch, as we had come from out of state to search for a place to live. She was able to help us find a very nice new home. We are very thankful to her for her understanding and expertise in real estate and in the current housing market.”

“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.”

“We had to sell a relative's house after her death and we live over an hour away from the property. We used Agent Pronto to interview three different agents because we were unfamiliar with the area. We settled on Scott Paul. He is by far the best realtor we have ever worked with. (We have worked with six other realtors over the years.). He is professional, conscientious, thorough, and hard-working. We highly recommend him.”

“This is our second home purchase/sale with Meghan Jacobs. In each transaction, Meghan was highly professional and engaged in each step of the process. She is highly motiivated to make the process smooth and as as stress-free as possilbe, which is something I really appreciated. Overall, Meghan is a highly-qualified professional and capable individual and someone we will be using in the future if needed. I strongly recommend her services to anyone interested in purchasing a new home or selling an existing home.”

“Pat Smarto did every aspect of the sale of my property in an outstanding way that left me assured that I chose the right agent over others I had considered. Pat is a role model to all real estate agents. Through my observation and research I found that Pat is greatly involved in her community which also contributes to her standing in it and her profession. All of these attributes gave me a feeling of trust in Pat that you will realize also. My recommendation of Pat Smarto is without reservation!”

“Larry is by far the most AMAZING Realtor. He was always very responsive to my calls, texts, request, etc. We built up such a great relationship through this crazy process, that even after we closed on our new home, he reached out to check on us. He is always looking to get the best deal for his clients. He is like family now to us and will always have his own seat next to the firepit in our backyard. I would DEFINETLY recommend Larry to anyone and everyone looking to buy or sell. AMAZING.. Can't say enough Great things about Larry.”
