Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Over the latest rolling three-month period ending in September 2026, Hometown’s typical home value is up solidly from a year ago, rising about 9 percent. In contrast, the number of homes sold and pending has dropped steeply year over year, with closed sales down more than a third and pending contracts off by over 40 percent.
Current conditions show a typical home value and median list price both hovering just under $245,000, reflecting only small month-to-month shifts. Inventory sits at 34 active listings with about 3.2 months of supply, far higher than a year ago, indicating buyers have more options even as the market still leans toward sellers.
Homes in Hometown are spending a median of 52 days on the market in this rolling three-month view, which is unchanged from last September but longer than some earlier points in 2026. Nearly 47 percent of recent sales closed above the asking price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 100 percent, so pricing and negotiation strategy still matter; Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these shifting dynamics.

“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.”

“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.”

“Dean was a great realtor. Knowledgeable, on time, personable, and really made me feel comfortable throughout the process. I would highly recommend. He was always available and really put in the effort to meet my needs. If there were any obstacles, he wasn't afraid to dig in and get them resolved. He worked closely with the seller's agent, lender, and others. No steps were missed and I really liked his attention to detail.”

“Dave & Amal were top shelf. We could not have asked for better people to help us find our new home. We were trying to find a home while not living out of state. The team took videos, handled everything remotely and made the process super simple.”

“Working with Henry and the Heart of Chicago Homes team was an incredible experience from start to finish. Throughout the entire process, I always felt supported, informed, and confident knowing he and the team had our best interests in mind. We were searching in one of the most competitive markets, and the townhome we fell in love with ended up receiving multiple offers. Although our offer wasn’t accepted initially, Henry stayed persistent and maintained consistent communication with the listing agent. Thanks to his dedication and follow-up, he was able to position us next in line and ultimately help us secure our dream home when the first deal fell through. Even though we originally had the second-best offer, his hard work, relationships, and determination made all the difference. We couldn’t be more grateful and would highly recommend Henry and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
