Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Preston Heights real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Preston Heights is seeing very limited inventory, with only 7 homes on the market in March 2026 and just 1 new listing. Homes are moving from listing to contract fairly steadily, with 5 pending sales and a median of 90 days on market. With only 1.4 months of supply and a seller's market gauge of 14, conditions favor sellers even though buyers have few options to choose from.
Pricing is reacting in mixed ways to these tight conditions. The typical home value sits around $195,000, which is far below the $360,000 level in Will County overall, yet it is up a striking 200% from last year even after a 17.02% month‑over‑month dip. Sellers are asking more, with the median list price jumping 84.21% from last month to about $350,000, and projections point to a possible rise toward $430,000 next month. Still, buyers often negotiate, as homes sell for about 89.96% of list price and only 20% of sales close above asking, while 28.57% of listings see a price drop.
Compared with the larger county, Preston Heights offers lower typical values and far tighter inventory, which shapes a fast‑moving yet negotiable environment. Inventory has fallen 36.36% since last month and 12.5% over the year, while pending sales are up 66.67%, highlighting strong demand despite fewer new listings, which are down 75% year over year. Whether you are a buyer trying to navigate scarce choices or a seller aiming to price strategically, Agent Pronto can connect you with an agent who knows how to work these Preston Heights dynamics.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
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.
Whether you already live in Preston Heights or are considering a move from nearby communities such as Shorewood or Crest Hill, timing and preparation matter in this evolving market. Agent Pronto can connect you with a real estate professional who understands Preston Heights, helping buyers move quickly on the right home and helping sellers price and prepare their property for a successful sale.

“Kim was great!! First time selling a house so I had a bunch of questions. Kim took the time to help me through this process. Her staff and the lawyers that we use from her were incredible! Very helpful and very knowledgeable. I would recommend Kim to anybody that's thinking about selling a house. So if you're in the market to sell or buy a house, highly recommend getting Kim in your corner. Very satisfied customer!!”
“Kathy was so patient throughout our home buying process and always there when we had questions or needed to see a property. Kathy went above and beyond to inform us about the property details we viewed, and was very communicative throughout the whole buying process. She is oustanding and we will be referring her to family and friends!”
“It was our first time buying our own place, and Victoria was patient with us. She explained things in ways for us to understand, and was always available for all the little questions we had. We're planning on going straight to them next time we plan a move.”
“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!”

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.

I would DEFINETLY recommend Larry to anyone and everyone looking to buy or sell. AMAZING.. Can't say enough Great things about Larry.”
