Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Lakewood Shores real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Home values in Lakewood Shores sit well below the broader Will County area, with a typical home value of $141,000 compared to $353,450 countywide. Will County’s values have slipped about 5.49% year over year, while Lakewood Shores is projected to see its typical home value move from $141,000 in February 2026 to about $119,000 by March 2026, pointing to softer conditions locally.
February 2026 data shows a small and slow-moving market, with just 1 active listing and 1 new listing. Homes took a median of 160 days to go under contract, and that days-on-market figure has surged an estimated 171.19% month over month, while the average sale-to-list ratio of about 0.78 indicates buyers have been negotiating sizable discounts.
Looking ahead to March 2026, inventory is projected to dip from 1 home to 0, and the median list price is expected to hold around $269,000 even as typical values trend lower. No recent sales closed above list price, and with roughly 1 month of supply, conditions can shift quickly as each new listing or sale comes on the books. In this kind of low-volume, data-sensitive environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with a skilled local agent who understands these shifting trends.
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.
See why so many people rely on Agent Pronto to make their real estate journey a success.
“Working with Kim was fantastic. She has a great feel for the market, and was able to suggest a couple of vendors to get the house in the best condition for prospective buyers. We received a solid offer and sold the house less than two months on the market. And this was accomplished with me living on the West Coast.”
“Heather Bejda was a great help in our relocation from outside Philadelphia, PA to Oswego, IL. Ms. Bejda had great knowledge of the area and market. She provided excellent help, guidence and service. Would strongly recommend contacting Ms. Bejda if you are planning on relocating or purchasing property in the Naperville, IL area.”
“Our experience with Laura was excellent. From the moment we reached out to her everything moved forward quickly. As a first-time seller, I felt comfortable throughout the entire process thanks to Laura's knowledge, accessibility, and responsiveness. She also took the time to understand and cater towards our specific needs. I would highly recommend Laura.”
“Cinny is an interpersonal salesperson with clear understanding of the seller needs. I highly recommend her on your next real estate buy\sell endeavor.”
“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!”

You also know you'll get a honest and trustworthy professional at your side when you work with him. I can't recommend Shawn enough!”
“Kathy is the best! I appreciated her guidance and knowledge through the process of selling a home and acquiring a new home. Kathy was spot on with pricing my home as well as crafting offers on potential new homes. I had lots of ups and downs during the process, but Kathy was always calm and reassuring.”

I am in sales Management and I would hire her tomorrow. She sold our home in 4 days!!! Thank you Vicky!!!”

“Would use Lizette again, very easy to work with & very professional. Would recommend here 100% to Friends.”

“Working with Kim was absolutely fantastic! From the very beginning, she demonstrated professionalism, market expertise, and genuine care for my family's needs. My home needed several upgrades before listing, and Kim went above and beyond by helping me find reliable contractors and even helping manage the process to ensure everything was done on time and within budget. Thanks to her hard work, guidance, and excellent staging, my home received an offer on the very first day it was shown! Selling and moving can be intimidating, but Kim was like a fairy god-mother: always accessible and full of calming advice. If you’re looking for a realtor who truly goes the extra mile, I highly recommend Kimberly Thurm.”
“Immediately upon meeting Tracy Anderson, I knew that she was the perfect realtor for us. Her local area sales experience, personal involvement and life history within the neighboring suburbs, the positive attitude she projects, and her light-hearted personality were unquestionably ideal for meeting our home selling goals. Tracy managed our sales process expertly and with ease, reflecting a humble confidence and control that created trust and excitement for us. We immediately realized her sales strategy would propel us smoothly to a gratifying sales experience. Prior to live posting on the MLS, we received multiple full price offers from the first day private showings. Tracy's clear communication and skilled negotiating with all involved parties, even prompted an above price offer. We could not be more elated with our time spent with Tracy and her very personal approach. Of course, I sincerely recommend her as a highly exceptional real estate agent.”
“Dan was very professional throughout the entire process. He was knowledgeable about the neighborhood and broader trends and we were able to respond quickly to market conditions. Dan is very fair, honest, and trustworthy. He is also candid about the condition of the property but strives to get the most value possible for the seller out of the sale. He hired a professional photographer which helped with marketing the property and bringing out its best features. We would recommend Dan to our family and friends.”
