Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Inventory in Glen Carbon has expanded in this rolling three-month view, with active listings up more than 30% year over year to 103 homes. Buyer activity is keeping pace, as homes sold have climbed nearly 40% compared with a year ago and pending sales are up almost 64%. New listings have grown more modestly, rising about 9% from last year, which helps keep supply from getting too tight.
Despite more choices, sellers are still holding the advantage. Months of supply sits at about two months and is slightly lower than a year ago, pointing to a solid seller’s market where well-priced homes continue to move.
Pricing has reacted strongly to this demand, with the typical home value around $410,000, up roughly 24% year over year in the rolling three-month window. The median list price has increased about 23% from last year, and nearly half of recent sales closed above list price, with an average sale-to-list ratio just over 101%. Homes are taking longer to sell than a year ago, with median days on market up to about six weeks, yet more than 60% still go off the market within two weeks, suggesting fast action on the most desirable properties. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an experienced local real estate agent.

“Sixteen years ago, Rose Riordan helped us buy our first home in the suburbs. When it was time to sell that house and move to a city condo, she was our first and only choice. Rose handled the entire transition flawlessly. She was always available and easy to reach whenever we had questions or need her opinion throughout the process. We highly recommend her services when selling or buying a home!”

All that was done orderly and in a very short time. As a result the house was sold within three days and at a price much exceeding the asking one. I am very thankfull to Kim.”

“Paula had a very calming, professional presence to her. Paula was on-time, knowledgeable, brought up important points, suggestions and realistic timelines. Home looking is exciting and stressful and a good Agent in my opinion, reels you in a little towards reality. Pumping the brakes. Paula's communication was consistent and accurate and she was there when I needed her. Certainly made the process easier for me and I am happy to have worked with her.”

“Originally we were referred by our first lender and we could not have been more fortunate to work with Vicky and Sam. They were professional and realistic regarding our home search. We had not purchased a home in a very long time and Vicky was patient and understanding and was so attentive. avidly referred us to our second lender (the first was not communicative) and it was wonderful. Overall the whole experience was great! Thank you for helping us find our dream home!”

“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!”

She came to our home to make signing the paperwork easy since my husband is having health issues and is not easily able to get around right now.

“Barb was 1/20 realtors who was willing to work with me in the beginning over 9 years ago. This is when I first purchased my home. I was cheap buyer. It went without saying I was going to be using her for the sale of the home 9 years later. She handled the hurdles flawlessly and talked me through and coached me the entire way. To say I appreciate her is an understatement. I sold my home after we relocated it of state and she coordinated every logistic of that sale on my behalf to he best of her ability. I recommend her without fail and would point every person in her direction that has a need for a solid realtor.”

“Working with Emir is always a pleasure. He was very helpful in coordinating work on our house for sale, working with vendors and providing valuable feedback on neccesary work vs. potential work items unlikely to generate return. We closed sale of house 3 weeks from time of first listing. I'd worked with Emir before and hope to do so again in the future.”
