Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Year-over-year, Lakewood Shores home values have climbed strongly, with the typical home value up about 45 percent in this rolling three-month view. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list price has increased compared with a year ago, reinforcing that demand is still healthy even as conditions evolve.
In the latest three-month period ending in June 2026, the typical home value is about $274,850, while the median list price sits lower at roughly $217,989. Homes are taking longer to sell, with typical days on market stretching to around 50 days and months of supply rising to about 4.2, signaling more breathing room than in past years.
Even with that added inventory, pricing power has not disappeared, as the average sale-to-list ratio is just above 102 percent and about a third of recent sales closed above asking. With only eight active listings and just three homes sold in this window, every new listing and offer can meaningfully shape local trends. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting dynamics can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a Lakewood Shores real estate agent who understands how to advocate effectively for both sides.
Lakewood Shores offers residents a welcoming, nature-forward community with convenient amenities, abundant outdoor recreation, and a strong sense of neighborly connection.
Lakewood Shores offers a practical lakeside lifestyle with a small community feel and straightforward access to larger job centers. Located near Wilmington and within reach of Joliet, it appeals to residents who prioritize affordable housing, outdoor recreation, and an easy commute along major corridors like I‑55 and Route 113.
Life here revolves around water and green space. Residents enjoy fishing, kayaking, and quiet shoreline walks along the local lakes and nearby Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie, which provides miles of trails for hiking and wildlife viewing. Families appreciate access to local schools in the Wilmington School District 209U, along with resources at the Wilmington Public Library District and community events in Braidwood and Coal City.
Daily needs are covered by nearby grocery options, local eateries, and services, with broader shopping and dining in Channahon and Morris. Outdoor enthusiasts make regular use of Mazonia‑Braidwood State Fish and Wildlife Area and the Illinois Department of Natural Resources sites along the Kankakee River for boating and picnicking.
Because Lakewood Shores is a smaller community with unique waterfront properties, covenants, and local nuances, working with an agent who truly knows the area can make a major difference. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with experienced local real estate professionals who help streamline decisions and reduce stress at every step.

“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!”
“Kim made the proper assessment of house value. She arranged house viewing for the prospective buyers and then selectied the most qualified oness to propose the buying offer. 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.”
“Melissa Young is an excellent realtor. I highly recommend her.”
“My family and I were very fortunate to have the support of Brittany during the selling of our condo. She's professional, knowledgeable and personable which minimized the stress of the process for us. I would definitely recommend her services to family and friends! Thank you again Brittany for being apart of this journey with us!!”
“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.”
“We were very pleased. We received an above asking offer after just a few showings. Also the pictures in the listing made me sad I was leaving what was to be our forever home.”
“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!”
“Laura is Amazing!”
“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!”
“Steven was very helpful, knowledgeable, passionate, and most importantly he met all of my needs! I will definitely use him for all of my future home purchases in the near future. Thanks again Steven, he's definitely a ROCK STAR! I can't wait to work with him in the near future. Betty Ng”
“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.”
“Kathy fought a lot of uphill battles for us and despite hurdles at every turn (with prospective buyer) she pushed on and was able to secure our sale. I can't thank her enough for the amount of work she put in.”
“It was a joy to work with Kathryn she was able to answer every question I had, her knowledge goes a long way and I will definitely recommend her to friends and family.”
“Working with Ray was an absolute blessing throughout my home buying journey. He went above and beyond every step of the way, always remaining patient, professional, and supportive through all of the ups and downs that came along the process. No matter the challenge, Ray stayed committed and made sure I felt informed and encouraged the entire time. His dedication, communication, and genuine care truly made a difference, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and hardworking realtor.”
“Heather was very helpful from beginning to end even with the struggles and challenges we gave her.”
“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”
“Working with Kolby Banks was an exceptional experience. His professionalism, deep market knowledge, and proactive communication turned a complex process into a seamless one. Kolby is a sharp negotiator who truly advocates for his clients' best interests. If you want a realtor who is transparent, detail-oriented, and results-driven, we highly recommend Kolby Banks. He’s simply the best in the business!”
“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!”
