Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Aug 2026).
Inventory in Peoria County has edged up, with active listings just over the mid-600s and slightly higher than a year ago, while months of supply has climbed to 1.7. Even with this modest increase in options, the area still sits in a seller’s market and remains tighter than Illinois overall, where supply is closer to three months.
Contract activity shows a mixed picture, as homes sold in August dipped from last month and from last year, yet pending sales jumped sharply year over year by nearly a quarter. Buyers are still writing contracts at a strong pace, suggesting that some demand is being delayed rather than disappearing.
Pricing has pushed higher over the past year, with the typical home value up more than 16 percent and the average sale-to-list ratio hovering just under full price. Homes are spending around 20 days on the market, which is a bit longer than earlier in the summer but still indicates that well-priced listings move quickly, and more than a third are selling above asking. Agent Pronto can connect buyers who want to compete effectively and sellers who hope to capitalize on these conditions with an experienced local agent in Peoria County.

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Steve Goodman and the experience we’ve had working with him over the past 10 years. Steve was my realtor when I purchased my very first condo, and 10 years later, he was right there with us as we sold that condo and purchased what we hope will be our forever home. Having the opportunity to work with the same realtor through such an important chapter of our lives speaks volumes about the trust and confidence we have in him. What sets Steve apart is that he genuinely puts his clients’ best interests first. He is never pushy or focused on simply making a sale. Instead, he takes the time to listen, answer every question, offer honest advice, and make sure you feel comfortable with every decision. He is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile.”

“Was impressed from the beginning when the owner answered the phone and made an appointment within a day or two to come out to the property. When we decided to put the house on the market, they were extremely professional And answered all our questions. The photographer came out promptly, and took amazing pictures of the property. It was listed the next day,and our house sold in less than a week. Andrew McCatty was our broker. He could not have been more knowledgeable or professional. Any questions that we had, Andrew either answered the phone or got back to us very quickly. Highly recommend Andrew and Century 21 Circle. Would only work with them again and would recommend them to family and friends.”

“Catherine Terpstra made herself available to us in our search for a house as we were moving from out of state back to IL. As soon as we contacted her, it felt like she dropped everything "just for us". (We know she was attending to other clinets, as well!) She was very efficient in setting up houses for us to tour, within and without our pricing perameters. She "heard us" in regard to the "non-negotiables" we had for a house for which we were looking. She printed out pertinent infomration on each place for us. We were in a time-crunch, as we had come from out of state to search for a place to live. She was able to help us find a very nice new home. We are very thankful to her for her understanding and expertise in real estate and in the current housing market.”

“I previously used Jeffry Phillips to sell a house I inherited. It was a very emotional time and he was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and gave suggestions of things that could be done to the house prior to selling it. Because that experience was so positive and he was so professional I utilized his services when it was time for me to sell my house. When it came time to sell my home, he was professional and extremely knowledgeable about the Garfield Ridge neighborhood. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends family, and neighbors if they are buying or selling a house.”
