Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Feb 2026 - Apr 2026).
Leaf River currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge signaling a seller’s market. Months of supply has climbed to about 3.1 months on a rolling three-month basis, up sharply from a year ago, suggesting more options than in the recent past. Yet with only three active listings and just one sale closing in this period, overall inventory and activity stay limited.
Prices have moved down significantly compared with a year earlier, giving buyers more negotiating power. The typical home value over the latest three-month window is down more than half year over year, and the median list price has fallen by over 40 percent in the same time frame. At the same time, the average sale-to-list price ratio has slipped to around three-quarters of asking, and no recent sales closed above list, reinforcing that sellers are accepting larger discounts than last year.
Activity levels show a slower pace than a year ago, with homes sold down more than 80 percent and pending sales falling nearly 60 percent over that time. Homes are taking longer to sell, as median days on market have jumped more than 150 percent year over year, now sitting at just over three weeks in the latest rolling period. With these shifting conditions, both buyers and sellers in Leaf River can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands this evolving market.

“Andrew was so incredibly helpful during the buiying process. We bought first and he helped us naviagte that, while also finding us the perfect homes to look at. He only showed us homes under our budget, and always including everything we wanted. He was incredibly responsive, responding at all hours of the day. He was very knowledgeable about the houses, the process, and what to expect. He help navigate through some difficult situations and helped solve problems for us. I would absultely use Andrew again and recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”

“Steve was always available, knowledgeable, and willing to listen to our thoughts and concerns about selling our home. More importantly, the selling of our home in tandem of purchasing a new home at the same time, went really well. If we needed to move again (heaven forbid) I wouldn't hesitate to have Steve again.”

“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.”

“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”

“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.”

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!”
