“Kim Wirtz and her team were great and able to sell my property within a reasonable 6 month window. Kim's expertise and resourcefulness made the process flow smoothly and painlessly. She was always available literally 7 days a week to all calls, text, and emails and provided guidance and insight navigating the process of selling property alleviating any unnecessary anxiety. I must note I had to negotiate a selling price below my initial listing price but everything considering I felt ok with the final sell. I would highly recommend Kim and her team to anyone.”

“Service and Expertise are #1 for me and in that regard, Mike McCatty provides excellent service and his expertise especially in the area I was selling in, is top-notch. Having a lot of previous sales experience in my development meant he already knew how to market and sell in the HoA I lived in, and what the requirements were to complete the sale with the property management company. Mike also properly communicated expectations in selling during this time of economic uncertainty knowing the market was shifting. Even still, my home received plenty of traffic, solid feedback and a number of interested buyers. I cannot possibly say enough kind things about Mike, his client-centric approach and calm demeanor in addressing other realtor's lack of professionalism, such as not leaving my home as it was found, unlocked, etc.. I would absolutely 100% recommend Mike to anyone who needs a realtor. I am very pleased to have chosen his services and would do so again if needed.”
“John Rice was exceptional to work with. His professionalism, clear communication, and responsiveness made the entire process smooth and stress-free. He was always available to answer questions and made sure every detail was handled with care. I would confidently recommend him to anyone looking for a trusted realtor.”
“Ray was a wonderful realtor who went above and beyond to help sell my late fathers home. He was compassionate, and kept us informed throughout the entire process. So grateful for Ray.”
“Vicky helped with all aspects of the sale. She helped guide us with prepping the property for photos, gave an analysis of surrounding properties in the area, answered all our questions, and communicated with us regularly during the process of the sale.”
“Katherine Rubis was outstanding in dealing with my needs. I was in Japan and did the entire process remotely. This was my first home purchase and she was very knowledgeable and made it very easy. She had all the support professionals (lawyers, insurance, and banking contacts) to make the entire process smooth and seamless. I would definately use her again and recommend her to anyone, especially if you are a first time homebuyer.”
“Gergana was outstanding from start to finish. She was straightforward, never sugarcoating, and always on point with her suggestions. From the beginning, she came prepared with a clear plan and executed it flawlessly. I was initially worried about listing the house in January, but thanks to Gergana’s expertise and guidance, we were under contract in less than three days, and we received more than our asking price. Her advice was spot-on, and we’re so glad we followed it. We couldn’t be happier with the results and the smooth experience. If we ever need to sell a house again in the future, Gergana will be our first call. Highly recommended!”
“Barb provided exceptional service throughout my home-buying experience. She demonstrated professionalism, clear communication, and a genuine commitment to ensuring a smooth process from start to finish. I am grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and reliable real estate agent.”
“Karyn was so helpful in the sale of this property. After the death of our loved one she was so patient and kind. She was very knowledgable and professional. She took out all the stress of selling this home in such a difficult time.”
“Kathi was amazing! She kept us informed with every step, and answered every question we had thoroughly. She also saved our bacon a couple times when we weren't sure about something. She's very professional, kind, and attentive”
“Working with Cathy truly was a blessing and a prayer answered. From day one, Cathy was on top of EVERYTHING. She made the sale of our home, as well as the buying of our new home, such a wonderful experience. Even though we ran into some hiccups, which were out of our hands, Cathy handled it all for us. From her marketing, to her overall knowledge of buying and selling, Cathy was on top of everything. I'm so thankful and grateful to have had her on this journey, by our side. I know I will recommend her time and time again, to all our family and friends.”
“Very friendly and approachable person. Very easy to work with. Was really invested in the process and treated us with respect. I don't feel like just another client when working with her.”
“Larry is by far the most AMAZING Realtor. He was always very responsive to my calls, texts, request, etc. We built up such a great relationship through this crazy process, that even after we closed on our new home, he reached out to check on us. He is always looking to get the best deal for his clients. He is like family now to us and will always have his own seat next to the firepit in our backyard. I would DEFINETLY recommend Larry to anyone and everyone looking to buy or sell. AMAZING.. Can't say enough Great things about Larry.”
“Lynn Bialy was very knowledgeable and patient with my husband and I. We saw many homes in this crazy market. Lynn Bialy knew what we wanted and notified us of a house on the private listing that checked a majority of our boxes! Sooner than we knew it we had our forever home!”
“Lee and Denise always looked at property with me and payed attention to every detail. They wanted the best for us. You can tell it's something that means more to them than commission. We were so happy to have them. Any issues we had we tackled together. He would call to check in with us during the waiting time. Very kind and compassionate. We were so happy with them. Highly recommend.”
“Easily one of the best realtors, he was extremely friendly didn’t rush us for houses tours. He also showed my family and me plenty of houses on the market for months.”
“Carmen Mitulescu was a pleasure to work with! Her overall knowledge and skills were bar none! I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again if I ever decide to sell my home and purchase another property!!!”
“Given the current over-saturation of brokers and hot market climate, it's tough to find someone as committed and passionate as Cindi Maus - someone who ACTUALLY acts in their client's best interests and needs. And someone who isn't willing to settle until these needs are met. We can't say enough about how professional, accommodating, accessible and dedicated Cindi was throughout the sale of our home. For how stressful of a process this was, Cindi sure made us feel assured and at ease - from the initial sale offering to the final closing. In all honesty, Cindi's experience, attitude and commitment sets the standard. Thanks for making this experience one we'll never forget!”
“The quicker the response the better, and Taylor was always there for me when I had questions I did not experience any issues with Taylor's work and she made everything easy for me, worked around my schedule, even gave me real advise about the neighborhoods I was searching in I was not pressured to do this survey in any way, and I feel she can be trusted handling my close friends and family's home purchase needs”
“Wow, Marge is an amazing realtor! Knowledgeable, professional, communicative, resourceful & passionate about what she does!”
Manhattan real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Manhattan real estate market, updated for January 2026. *
The typical home value in Manhattan is projected to be $427,500 for the month of January. December’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $405,000—up 37.95% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $359,950 in Will County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $361,670 in January.
Manhattan had 9 new listings and 7 listings that went under contract in December, decreasing the area’s total available inventory to 25—down 28.57% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further decreased in January.
Of those 25 active listings, 36.0% reduced their price in the month of December. The median listing price for homes in Manhattan fell 7.19% from November to December, bringing the current median listing price to $399,000. Based on projected data for January, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract fell year-over-year. In December 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 55 days, compared to 60 days in December 2024. However, in recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be rising. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this January.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
