Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Peoria County real estate market. *
September 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 (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Peoria County has been building modestly, with active listings up more than 8% year over year to 690 and new listings rising over 12% in the same period. Contract activity is mixed, as homes sold are up nearly 9% annually while pending sales have slipped almost 8%, suggesting some recent softening in buyer follow-through.
Prices are showing some downward pressure even as sales volume holds up. The typical home value has edged down about 3% from a year ago and the median list price is down roughly 7%, while the average sale-to-list ratio has dipped slightly to just over 98% and the share of homes selling above list has eased compared with last year.
Speed of sale highlights steady demand, with the median days on market holding at 18, unchanged year over year, and nearly half of homes going off the market within two weeks. Even with months of supply under two and the area still in a seller’s market by local gauge, conditions are more balanced than in the broader Illinois market, which shows higher prices and more inventory. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these crosscurrents in Peoria County can rely on Agent Pronto to connect them with an experienced local agent who understands the latest trends.
Peoria County offers residents a balanced mix of strong job opportunities, affordable housing, excellent schools, abundant outdoor recreation, and a welcoming community, all supported by accessible services and a growing cultural scene.
Peoria County blends a major regional job market with practical day to day livability. Anchored by the city of Peoria, the county offers a mix of historic neighborhoods, riverfront condos, and suburban-style communities, all within a manageable commute to healthcare, manufacturing, education, and tech employers.
Residents enjoy easy access to the Illinois River and outdoor space at Forest Park Nature Center, Grandview Drive, and the Rock Island Trail. Families appreciate local resources like Peoria Public Schools District 150 and the Peoria Public Library, while higher education at Bradley University and Illinois Central College supports both careers and continuing learning.
Quality-of-life amenities are a major draw. The Peoria Riverfront Museum and nearby Peoria Civic Center bring culture and events downtown, complemented by neighborhood coffee shops and local restaurants across East Peoria and Washington. Everyday errands are simplified by a network of shopping centers, medical offices, and services spread across the county, and the Greater Peoria Mass Transit District supports car-light living in core areas.

“Lisa and Donna have both been wonderful to work with. I bought my 1st home with them and returned to them to recently sell my home. They made both the buying and sell process seamless and easy. They were always readily available to answer questions and went above and beyond to find me a perfect home at the time and to find the perfect buyer when we were ready for a change.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better agent than Christin Kaufman to help us sell our home. Our transaction turned out to be far more challenging than we ever expected. We were dealing with an extremely demanding buyer and what seemed like an endless stream of questions, concerns, and new requests. Through all of it, Christin was fantastic. She stayed calm, kept us focused on the end goal, helped us separate the important issues from the noise, and guided us through every new twist without letting the process get off track. She was always responsive, patient, and willing to talk through our options. Anyone can look like a great real estate agent when a transaction goes perfectly. You really learn the value of your agent when things get difficult. Christin proved her value to us over and over again and ultimately helped us get across the finish line. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did for us and would recommend Christin without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
“Selling our condo was a much smoother experience than I expected, and I truly have Larry to thank for that. From the very beginning, he was knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly professional. Night or Day, weekday or weekend Larry answered the phone and communicated actively any information about the process to us. A true professional. He guided us through every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and always made us feel confident in the decisions we were making. What impressed me most was his negotiation skills. Larry advocated for our best interests every step of the way and worked hard to secure the best possible outcome. We always felt like he had our back and never settled for less than what our home was worth. If you’re looking for an agent who is honest, strategic, communicative, and genuinely invested in their clients, we can’t recommend Larry Lazar highly enough. Selling a home can be stressful, but he made the entire process seamless. We would absolutely work with him again and recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home.”
“Bianca did an amazing job with the sale of our home and purchasing a new home. She answered all our questions that came up during both buying and selling! She was patient with our search to make sure we found the right one!”
“Chelsi and her team were a true delight to work with! From beginning to end they remained incredibly kind, professional and promptly answered all of our questions and concerns thoroughly. TRULY A 5 STAR AGENT! Any buyer or seller would be lucky to have them in their corner.”
“We really enjoyed working with Frank. He is very honest and knowledgeable. Not just about Real Estate but also about home construction he worked with us until we found the home we were meant to be in and worked seamlessly in the offer process. We are so thankful to have found him.”
“Chris Piercy is an A+ Number One Realtor. He handled the sale of my old house and found me a new home in the area I wanted. He was superb on both the buy side and sell side. His first rate knowledge, resourcefulness and uninterrupted energy make his negotiations run smoothly and on schedule. Chris is effective, efficient and friendly. He even gave me a tour of my new home town.”
“Amanda was recommended by a family member, wish I would've signed with her first. Did a great job staging my house for showings and her communication with me was excellent! I highly recommend her for anyone looking to list their homes!”
“I am extremely thrilled with how Nicole had helped me through the process. She is knowledgeable and efficient. In the future, I will definitely be working with her again.”
“I’m thankful we were referred to her. The real estate market is cutthroat and can be a tough world to navigate right now which is why you need a good realtor. Kelly is truly the best of the best. It became very clear to me that she has 27 years of experience. If you’re buying or selling your home, you’d better get with Kelly Rupp.”
“Very happy dealing with Eric and Brad . Super responsive to concerns. Knowledgeable, would recommend them anytime. Made the buying and selling process very easy.”
“Justin listed my 86 year old mother’s home. We found Justin very knowledgeable about real estate in her neighborhood leading to him giving us very good guidance on a number of decisions we faced. He was extremely patient and professional in all dealings with my mother, sister and me. He sold my mother’s house in a very short period of time during a timeframe that is not typically a busy time for real estate. I would highly recommend Justin as a realtor.”
