Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Holiday Shores real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Holiday Shores currently leans toward buyers, with homes taking time to move and no sales closing above list price. With a typical home value of $342,500 in March 2026 yet a median list price of $255,000, many sellers appear to be pricing cautiously in order to attract offers.
Values have been volatile, with typical home value down 21.76% year over year but jumping 28.04% just since the prior month. At the same time, the median list price slipped about 9.97% month over month and homes are now spending a median of 114 days on the market, up 62.86% from last year and 142.55% from the prior month, reinforcing slower conditions.
Inventory is limited at just 5 homes and 2.5 months of supply, and new listings also stood at 5 in March, though that was a 66.67% increase from a year earlier. Compared with Madison County overall, where the typical home value is $196,250 and projected to ease to $188,000, Holiday Shores sits at a higher price point and is projected at $380,000 next month, so local dynamics can differ sharply from the county picture. In this type of environment, both buyers and sellers in Holiday Shores can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with a real estate agent who understands these shifting trends.
Holiday Shores offers residents a welcoming, family-friendly community with accessible outdoor recreation, convenient local amenities, and a strong sense of neighborly support.
Holiday Shores is a lake-centered residential community offering a relaxed lifestyle with everyday conveniences within easy reach of Edwardsville and Alton. Centered around a private, 430 acre lake, it appeals to buyers who value water access, a neighborhood feel, and straightforward commutes to nearby employment hubs.
Life here revolves around recreation and practical livability. Residents enjoy boating, fishing, and lakeside gatherings, complemented by neighborhood parks and common areas maintained through the property owners association. Families appreciate nearby schools in the Edwardsville district such as Edwardsville High School, as well as access to Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. For healthcare and everyday services, major options in Edwardsville and Glen Carbon are a short drive away.
Dining, shopping, and entertainment span local favorites in Bethalto, the historic downtown of Alton, and the retail corridors of Collinsville. Outdoor enthusiasts can easily connect to regional amenities like Watershed Nature Center and the Madison County Transit Trails.
Because Holiday Shores has its own lake regulations, association rules, and unique housing stock, working with an agent who knows the community is crucial. The right local expert can explain shoreline guidelines, help you compare waterfront and off-lake homes, and time your sale or purchase to match seasonal demand. Agent Pronto connects buyers and sellers with agents who understand Holiday Shores, reducing stress and making each move more confident and informed.

“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.”
“Working with Kim Wirtz was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Selling a home can be stressful, but Kim made the process smooth, professional, and easy. Thanks to her expertise, market knowledge, and dedication, my home sold in just 7 days! Kim was responsive, knowledgeable, and truly invested in getting the best outcome for me. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and she provided expert guidance on pricing, marketing, and negotiations. What stood out most was Kim’s exceptional customer service—she always answered questions quickly and made me feel like a priority. If you are looking for a hardworking, trustworthy real estate agent who delivers results, I highly recommend Kim Wirtz. I would absolutely work with her again!”

He truly went above and beyond to help me and I am so appreciative! Steve is indeed a "good man"!”
“After going through a very difficult experience before, meeting my realtor completely changed the way I felt about the home buying process. After the passing of my husband, I had to go through this process alone, and during such an emotional and overwhelming time, she brought me so much peace of mind and support. What truly makes her different is that she genuinely cares about her clients. She never made me feel like I was just another sale or transaction. She took the time to listen carefully to my needs, requirements, and concerns, and always made sure I felt heard and supported every step of the way. Her professionalism, patience, honesty, and dedication are something rare to find. She always had my best interest at heart and went above and beyond to help me feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. I am incredibly grateful for everything she did for me, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor who truly cares, works with integrity, a”
“Becki from Laura Topp’s team was incredible in helping me purchase my first property, a brick 2-flat in Chicago’s highly competitive north and west side market. Inventory was extremely limited and we toured at least 20 properties throughout the process. Becki was consistently accommodating with her time, prepared detailed reports for every showing and approached each opportunity with a thoughtful strategy. She genuinely treated the search as if she were buying the property for herself. When we finally found the right building, Becki skillfully negotiated with the listing agent and played a major role in getting the deal done while still protecting my interests and keeping the transaction together. The listing agent even praised her professionalism and credited her with helping secure the deal. Throughout closing, she remained diligent, communicative and focused on making sure I understood every step of the process and felt protected as a buyer. I cannot recommend Becki and Laura Topp”
“Melissa Young was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable which was critical for me as a first-time home buyer. She helped me win my very first bid with a strong offer and guided me through challenges with the appraisal process. She sets the bar high and I am so happy with my beautiful first home in Chicago!”
“To be honest Ralph was the best part of my team. He's a good person and if it wasn't for him I wouldn't know half of what I know about buying a house Thanks Ralph”

“Great experience! Very attentive, honest, and dedicated. Professional, efficient, and easy to work with. Highly recommended!”
“We relocated from an area where we had lived our entire lives, and the prospect of moving to another state can often be quite challenging. However, our experience with Kimberly was exceptionally smooth and seamless. Her expertise, combined with the thoughtful and tailored feedback she provided based on our specific criteria, proved invaluable throughout the entire process. She conducted herself with the utmost professionalism while also making us feel genuinely supported, as though we were family. We would highly recommend her to any prospective buyers or sellers seeking a dedicated and knowledgeable real estate professional.”
“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.”
“Dayana is the realtor for the buyer looking to purchase in a seller's market. Her expertise was the key to our acquiring the property we now own. From showing us various properties, to continually checking in with us, to putting together a competitive and timely offer, to connecting us with a good attorney, to negotiating the terms of the contract, and otherwise guiding us through the process, Dayana was the best. Thank you Dayana!”
