Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Peoria County real estate market. *
June 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026).
Inventory in Peoria County stayed level in June, with about the same number of active listings as May and a slight year-over-year increase. Buyer activity has been strong, as homes sold jumped more than 20% from the previous month and rose double digits compared with last year, even as new listings dipped.
Pricing has been reacting to this tight supply and solid demand, with the typical home value up over 8% from May and more than 12% higher than a year ago. At the same time, the median list price edged down month over month while still running higher than last year, suggesting sellers may be adjusting asking prices while the market continues to push actual sale prices upward.
Speed and negotiation trends underline how tilted conditions are toward sellers, with homes typically going under contract in about 10 days and months of supply down to roughly 1.3, well below the Illinois level of 2.9 months. Even with a slight year-over-year dip in the share of homes selling above list, nearly four in ten sales still close over asking, and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 100%. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate this fast-moving Peoria County market can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local real estate agent who understands these dynamics.

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!”

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.”
