Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026).

Inventory in Lee County has expanded compared with last year, with active listings up more than 20 percent in June and months of supply about a third higher. New listings also climbed strongly year over year, suggesting more homeowners are deciding to test the market. Even with this added supply, homes sold increased more than 10 percent from a year ago, indicating buyers are still active.

Pricing is showing some downward pressure in response to the extra inventory. The typical home value is slightly below last year, and the median list price has slipped by a few percent year over year, while statewide prices in Illinois are still rising. Sellers are conceding a bit on negotiation, with the average sale-to-list ratio just under 100 percent and a smaller share of homes closing above list price than a year ago.

Pace has shifted as well, with median days on market now in the low 40s and much higher than this time last year, aligning with the neutral market reading for Lee County. At the same time, homes can still move quickly when well priced, with nearly half going under contract within two weeks and sales volumes up from last year. Buyers facing more choices and sellers navigating softer pricing can both benefit from a local expert, and Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these conditions.

“Kim was hands down the best realtor we could have asked for! Buying and selling a home at the same time was stressful, but she made the entire process so much easier. She was always one step ahead, kept us informed, answered every question, and truly had our best interests at heart. When communication with the buyers' agent became difficult, Kim stayed on top of everything, followed up constantly, and worked tirelessly to keep the sale moving forward. Her persistence played a huge role in making sure we didn't lose the deal. Most importantly, we never felt like just another client. Kim genuinely cared about our family and went above and beyond to help us find the home of our dreams. We can't thank her enough and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and caring realtor!”

“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.”

“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!”

She came to our home to make signing the paperwork easy since my husband is having health issues and is not easily able to get around right now.

“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.”

“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.”
