“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.”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Hamel’s rolling three-month numbers show notable year-over-year movement. Typical home values are up strongly, rising more than 16 percent compared with last year, while the median list price has jumped even faster by nearly 36 percent. Closed sales activity has also expanded, with the number of homes sold more than doubling over the same period.
Looking at the latest rolling three months through July 2026, prices and inventory paint a picture of a tight, higher-priced market. The typical home value sits around $310,000, with a median list price near $341,000 and only six active listings available, resulting in a very low 0.6 months of supply that reinforces current seller leverage.
While prices are up, competition has cooled compared with a year ago. The share of homes selling above list has dropped sharply to about 20 percent, and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged down to just under 99 percent, even as median days on market have stretched to about a month and a half. In this shifting environment, Hamel buyers need help spotting value and timing offers wisely, and sellers benefit from clear pricing and marketing strategies, so Agent Pronto can connect both sides with an experienced local agent who understands these trends.
Learn more about what Hamel has to offer.
Hamel offers residents a welcoming small-town atmosphere, convenient local amenities, and vibrant community events that foster connection and everyday convenience.
Hamel offers a small‑town identity that feels distinct from nearby Edwardsville and Troy, with a quieter pace yet quick access to I‑55 and I‑70 for easy commuting into St. Louis or Granite City. The village centers around local institutions and long‑running family businesses, which gives daily life a familiar and grounded rhythm.
Residents enjoy community life that often revolves around local churches, youth sports, and gatherings at the Hamel Community Park. Families appreciate the strong reputation of Hamel Elementary School, part of Edwardsville Community Unit School District 7, and older students benefit from proximity to Edwardsville amenities and schools. Everyday needs are covered by nearby shops and services, while larger retail and dining options in Collinsville or Edwardsville are a short drive away.
Outdoor and recreation‑minded residents value easy access to regional attractions such as Silver Lake Park in Highland and the MCT Trails network, which appeals to cyclists and walkers. Local dining favorites, including long‑standing restaurants along the highway corridor, give Hamel a social hub where neighbors actually recognize each other.
Because Hamel’s housing inventory is limited and buyer interest often comes from commuters seeking more space, timing and preparation matter. Whether you are planning to list a longtime family home or hoping to secure the right property before it hits the broader market, working with a knowledgeable local agent through Agent Pronto can help both buyers and sellers move confidently.
Trusted by over 500,000 buyers and sellers.

“Was impressed from the beginning when the owner answered the phone and made an appointment within a day or two to come out to the property. When we decided to put the house on the market, they were extremely professional And answered all our questions. The photographer came out promptly, and took amazing pictures of the property. It was listed the next day,and our house sold in less than a week. Andrew McCatty was our broker. He could not have been more knowledgeable or professional. Any questions that we had, Andrew either answered the phone or got back to us very quickly. Highly recommend Andrew and Century 21 Circle. Would only work with them again and would recommend them to family and friends.”

“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.”

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.”
