Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Preston Heights have shifted notably in this rolling three-month view ending in July 2026. Active listings are down by about half compared with a year ago, yet homes sold have also fallen by roughly two-thirds, pointing to thinner overall activity. Pending sales are down close to 30 percent year over year, and new listings have declined nearly that much as well, which together signal a slower but still moving pipeline.
Pricing tells a mixed story over the same period. The typical home value is down about 25 percent year over year, even as the median list price has risen more than 15 percent, suggesting sellers are aiming higher while closed sale prices lag behind. Buyers are often negotiating significant discounts, with the average sale-to-list ratio now under 80 percent and well below last year’s level.
Market pace and supply conditions add another layer of contrast in Preston Heights. Homes are spending a median of just over a month on the market in this rolling three-month window, a sharp decrease from a year ago, yet months of supply has surged to more than 11, indicating ample inventory relative to recent sales. Half of recent sales still closed above list price, but that share is down from last year, showing that the strongest bidding wars have eased. Whether you are a buyer trying to interpret these crosscurrents or a seller aiming to price strategically, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local agent who understands this market.
Preston Heights offers residents a welcoming, family-friendly community with well-kept parks, convenient local amenities, engaging neighborhood events, and a balanced mix of small-town charm and modern conveniences.
Preston Heights offers a quieter, more close‑knit feel than nearby Joliet, yet keeps you close to major employers, shopping, and transit. Many residents value its unpretentious character, where long‑time homeowners and newer arrivals share a strong sense of local identity.
Daily life often centers on nearby green spaces and local institutions. Families appreciate access to parks like Nowell Park and Mission Boulevard Soccer Complex, along with regional destinations such as the Forest Preserve District of Will County trails. For entertainment, you are close to Harrah’s Joliet and downtown Joliet’s restaurants and events, yet can return home to a quieter residential environment.
Commuters benefit from proximity to I‑80 and I‑55, as well as Metra service from nearby Joliet. Local students are served through area districts that connect to institutions like Joliet Central High School. Everyday needs are met by nearby shopping corridors, while larger cultural and recreational options in Will County and Chicago are within reasonable reach.

“We were so impressed with Kim! Her quick responses to questions and calls were much appreciated. Kim and her team were very efficient and professional, also. Her experience helped us to get two offers in two days for an "AS IS" home that needed lots of love. We could count on her, and she came through for us!”
“Katherine Rubis was very patient with me during the year that I was looking for homes. She was always available to discuss our next steps or to show me new listings. Every single part of the process that Katherine handled was very smooth and easy for me. She is an outstanding agent and I will definitely call her when I am in the market to sell or buy a home again. There is nothing else she could have done to make me more satisfied with working with her. I have zero complaints.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Gergana was outstanding from start to finish. She was straightforward, never sugarcoating, and always on point with her suggestions. From the beginning, she came prepared with a clear plan and executed it flawlessly. I was initially worried about listing the house in January, but thanks to Gergana’s expertise and guidance, we were under contract in less than three days, and we received more than our asking price. Her advice was spot-on, and we’re so glad we followed it. We couldn’t be happier with the results and the smooth experience. If we ever need to sell a house again in the future, Gergana will be our first call. Highly recommended!”
“Kathi was amazing! She kept us informed with every step, and answered every question we had thoroughly. She also saved our bacon a couple times when we weren't sure about something. She's very professional, kind, and attentive”
“Agent Pronto was very helpful. I met Steve Brashler, my realtor, through Agent Pronto. He did a fantastic job with the sale of my house. He's easy to work with and made the whole experience easy and pleasant.”
“Larry is by far the most AMAZING Realtor. He was always very responsive to my calls, texts, request, etc. We built up such a great relationship through this crazy process, that even after we closed on our new home, he reached out to check on us. He is always looking to get the best deal for his clients. He is like family now to us and will always have his own seat next to the firepit in our backyard. I would DEFINETLY recommend Larry to anyone and everyone looking to buy or sell. AMAZING.. Can't say enough Great things about Larry.”
“Lynn Bialy was very knowledgeable and patient with my husband and I. We saw many homes in this crazy market. Lynn Bialy knew what we wanted and notified us of a house on the private listing that checked a majority of our boxes! Sooner than we knew it we had our forever home!”
“The quicker the response the better, and Taylor was always there for me when I had questions I did not experience any issues with Taylor's work and she made everything easy for me, worked around my schedule, even gave me real advise about the neighborhoods I was searching in I was not pressured to do this survey in any way, and I feel she can be trusted handling my close friends and family's home purchase needs”
