“Kim was hands down the best realtor we could have asked for! Buying and selling a home at the same time was stressful, but she made the entire process so much easier. She was always one step ahead, kept us informed, answered every question, and truly had our best interests at heart. When communication with the buyers' agent became difficult, Kim stayed on top of everything, followed up constantly, and worked tirelessly to keep the sale moving forward. Her persistence played a huge role in making sure we didn't lose the deal. Most importantly, we never felt like just another client. Kim genuinely cared about our family and went above and beyond to help us find the home of our dreams. We can't thank her enough and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and caring realtor!”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Homes in Central Peoria have been moving quickly in this rolling three‑month view, with a median of just 7 days on the market, down sharply from 11 days a year ago and far below the longer times seen in early 2024. This faster pace is happening even as activity has picked up, with 165 homes sold, a year‑over‑year increase of more than 14 percent. The broader city of Peoria is a bit slower with 1.7 months of supply, compared with only 1 month in Central Peoria, underscoring how tight conditions are in this neighborhood.
Prices have generally trended upward alongside this rapid pace. The typical home value in Central Peoria over the latest rolling period is around $165,000, up about 5 percent from a year earlier. Median list prices have climbed even faster, rising more than 11 percent year over year.
Demand shows up not just in faster sales, but also in how close offers are to asking prices. Sellers received an average of roughly 102 percent of list price, and about 44 percent of homes sold above their list price in the latest rolling three months. New listings increased modestly from a year ago, but supply remains limited at about 1 month, keeping conditions in seller’s market territory. With homes selling quickly and pricing trends favoring prepared participants, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands how to navigate Central Peoria’s fast‑moving market.

“Vicky knows real estate and has excellent communication skills. She relayed her recommendations and expectations. Her experience expedited the sale of my home. I had a contract in less than two days. She is a hard worker and always available to respond to questions or concerns. I highly recommend her for an agent.”

Thank you again Brittany for being apart of this journey with us!!”
“Paula had a very calming, professional presence to her. Paula was on-time, knowledgeable, brought up important points, suggestions and realistic timelines. Home looking is exciting and stressful and a good Agent in my opinion, reels you in a little towards reality. Pumping the brakes. Paula's communication was consistent and accurate and she was there when I needed her. Certainly made the process easier for me and I am happy to have worked with her.”
“Laura is Amazing!”
“Working with Tracy to buy our home was a great experience and she was always available and communicative even as we navigated some difficult parts of the negotiation with the seller. 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!”

“Meldina is an expert in the local market and an exceptional negotiator. Her professionalism, communication, and dedication exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend her!”
“Lisa Buskirk-Inman was absolutely wonderful to work with. She came to our home to make signing the paperwork easy since my husband is having health issues and is not easily able to get around right now. She gave us peace of mind knowing everything was taken care of and explained everything we were signing.”
“Barb was 1/20 realtors who was willing to work with me in the beginning over 9 years ago. This is when I first purchased my home. I was cheap buyer. It went without saying I was going to be using her for the sale of the home 9 years later. She handled the hurdles flawlessly and talked me through and coached me the entire way. To say I appreciate her is an understatement. I sold my home after we relocated it of state and she coordinated every logistic of that sale on my behalf to he best of her ability. I recommend her without fail and would point every person in her direction that has a need for a solid realtor.”

“Working with Emir is always a pleasure. 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.”
“Working with Ray was an absolute blessing throughout my home buying journey. He went above and beyond every step of the way, always remaining patient, professional, and supportive through all of the ups and downs that came along the process. No matter the challenge, Ray stayed committed and made sure I felt informed and encouraged the entire time. His dedication, communication, and genuine care truly made a difference, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and hardworking realtor.”
