“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.”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
In Knollwood, the rolling three-month view shows a small pool of listings and modest sales activity. There are 9 active listings, with 6 new listings and 3 homes sold, while 8 properties have gone under contract. Months of supply is at 5.3, noticeably higher than a year ago, and points to more balance even though the market is still labeled a seller’s market.
Pricing has shifted upward over the past year. The typical home value is about $610,000, up slightly year over year, while the median list price has climbed much more strongly, rising nearly 28% compared to the same period last year.
Speed and negotiation patterns are also evolving. Homes are taking a median of 54 days to sell in this rolling three-month period, yet that is significantly faster than a year ago, and nearly 62% of homes are going under contract within two weeks. About one-third of recent sales closed above list price, and sellers are still receiving close to asking, with an average sale-to-list ratio just under 98%. With these shifting conditions, both buyers and sellers in Knollwood can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting them with a skilled local agent who understands the latest trends.
Learn more about what Knollwood has to offer.
Knollwood offers residents a welcoming, safe, family-friendly community with well-maintained parks, convenient local amenities, strong schools, and easy access to nearby services and commuting options.
Knollwood stands out from nearby Lake Bluff and Lake Forest with its laid‑back character and modest lot sizes that still keep you close to the lakefront and major employers. This small community offers quiet streets, mature trees, and a strong neighborhood feel, while remaining minutes from cultural and shopping options in Waukegan and Highland Park.
Residents value practical amenities and easy access. Kids often attend schools in the Lake Bluff School District 65 and Lake Forest Community High School District 115, which are a major draw for buyers comparing nearby communities. Outdoor time is simple to enjoy, with golf at Knollwood Club and walking and biking on the Robert McClory Bike Path. Weekend errands and dining are close at hand in Libertyville, and the Lake Bluff Metra station offers direct service to downtown Chicago for commuters.
Because Knollwood is compact, available homes can be limited and move quickly, especially properties with recent updates or larger yards. Sellers benefit from thoughtful pricing and targeted local marketing, while buyers gain an edge by preparing financing and understanding micro‑market trends street by street. Agent Pronto can connect you with a real estate professional who knows Knollwood’s nuances and timing, helping both buyers and sellers move confidently when the right opportunity appears.

Overall the whole experience was great! Thank you for helping us find our dream home!”

During the process, there were ups and downs which made us nervious. Cinny listened to our concerns and gave us professional advice.”

Thank you Dayana!”
