Livingston County real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Livingston County real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Livingston County is seeing a modest number of homes for sale, with 76 properties on the market and 34 new listings in March 2026. Contract activity is a bit softer, with 32 pending sales and a year-over-year decline of about 17.95 percent in pendings. Inventory has grown around 8.57 percent from last year, giving buyers somewhat more choice even though the area is still labeled a seller's market.
Home prices are adjusting as supply and demand shift. The typical home value sits near $154,900, up 3.27 percent from last year, while the median list price is about $149,500 and has risen 6.86 percent month over month.
Homes are taking longer to sell, spending a median of 125 days on the market, which is roughly 92.31 percent longer than a year ago. Only about 4 percent of recent sales closed above list price, and sellers are receiving around 95.7 percent of asking, with about 15.79 percent of listings seeing a price drop. Compared with Illinois overall, Livingston County homes are more affordable, with typical values well below the state’s $314,900 level. Projections suggest a slight increase in listed prices to about $154,300 next month, while inventory may edge up to 79 homes. Whether buyers want to navigate these longer timelines or sellers hope to price confidently in this shifting environment, Agent Pronto can connect both sides with a knowledgeable local agent.

Learn more about what Livingston County has to offer.
Livingston County offers residents a welcoming blend of small-town charm, strong community services, abundant outdoor recreation, solid schools, and a growing economy that supports a comfortable, connected lifestyle.
Livingston County stands out from nearby McLean and Will counties by pairing true small town ease with direct access to major routes like I 55 and historic Route 66. Many residents commute to larger job centers while keeping their everyday lives rooted in close knit communities such as Pontiac, Fairbury, Flanagan, and Forrest.
Pontiac anchors the county with cultural staples like the Livingston County War Museum and the Route 66 Association of Illinois Hall of Fame and Museum. Local parks provide room to unwind, from Riverview Park along the Vermilion River to the family friendly Humiston Woods Nature Center near Pontiac. In towns such as Dwight, historic architecture and community events keep local identity front and center.
Daily life is supported by strong public schools and accessible services. The Pontiac District 429 schools and Prairie Central School District serve many area students, while the Livingston County Public Health Department and Pontiac Public Library contribute to quality of life across age groups.
Whether you are a longtime resident considering a move across town or relocating from Cook County for more space and quieter streets, timing and preparation matter. Market conditions can shift quickly in both Pontiac and the smaller farming communities, and the right local agent can help you plan ahead. Agent Pronto connects buyers and sellers with Livingston County agents who understand each town’s character, pace, and pricing.
Trusted by over 500,000 buyers and sellers.

“After a bad experience with another Realtor, Kathy was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn't of been more pleased that I went with the recommendation. Kathy has great attention to detail when it comes to reviewing the home in person and had a very strategic approach in a multiple bid scenario that won my home at a fair market value. She was also extremely responsive at anytime of the day and was always available to answer any questions!!! It was such a relief to have Kathy as my realtor. Truly best in class service!”
