Northbrook real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Northbrook real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Northbrook currently leans toward a seller’s market, with the market gauge at 23 out of 100. Inventory sits at 99 homes, equal to about 7.1 months of supply, giving buyers more options than in a very tight market. Yet prices are strong, with a typical home value of about $1,130,000, far above Cook County’s $352,750.
Recent trends help explain this balance between leverage and opportunity. Typical home values have surged, up 62.59% year over year and more than doubling month over month by 112.01%, while the median list price has moved down 19.51% from the prior month to $619,000, indicating some sellers may be pricing more conservatively. Homes are moving a bit faster, with median days on market down 4.65% month over month and 12.77% year over year to 41 days, suggesting buyers are still acting when they see the right fit.
Activity levels show steady, if slightly softer, demand. There were 59 new listings in the latest month, a 5.36% increase from last year, while pending sales slipped 6.38% year over year to 44, and about 11% of listings saw a price drop. Even so, roughly 42.86% of homes sold above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 1.00, reinforcing that well-positioned homes can command strong offers. Whether you’re a buyer navigating higher values or a seller aiming to capitalize on demand, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Northbrook agent who understands these numbers and how to work them to your advantage.
