Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Richmond is registering as a seller’s market on the current gauge, even as conditions show signs of easing. Months of supply has climbed to about 3.2 in the latest rolling three‑month view, more than triple its level a year ago. At the same time, homes are taking less time to sell, with the median days on market dropping to roughly 32, down about a quarter from last year.
Prices have pushed higher over the past year, with the typical home value up nearly 12 percent and the median list price rising more than 27 percent. Fewer properties are changing hands, though, as homes sold are down more than 45 percent year over year and pending sales have fallen about 30 percent. Inventory has also thinned, with active listings down roughly 24 percent compared with the same period last year, which helps explain why the market still leans toward sellers.
Recent shifts in bidding behavior illustrate this transition. No homes in the latest rolling three‑month period closed above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged down to about 98 percent, suggesting buyers have gained a bit more room to negotiate than in the past. With supply rebuilding, prices elevated, and activity slower, both buyers and sellers in Richmond can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent to navigate these conditions effectively.
Richmond offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with great parks, vibrant local events, solid schools, and easy access to nearby nature and everyday amenities.
Richmond immediately feels distinct from nearby McHenry and Spring Grove, with a historic Main Street, smaller scale, and a pace that appeals to both weekend visitors and long‑term residents. Set near the Chain O’Lakes region and a quick drive from Lake Geneva, it offers convenient access to larger destinations while keeping its own strong local identity.
The village core centers on antique shops, cafes, and locally owned restaurants, along with community staples like Richmond Brathaus and Rustic Road Brewing Company. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate the nearby Glacial Park Conservation Area and access to the Prairie Trail for biking and walking. Families value the small‑town school environment in Richmond-Burton Community High School District 157 and Nippersink School District 2, along with the services of the Richmond Public Library.
Housing in Richmond ranges from older farmhouses near the village center to newer subdivisions on the outskirts, offering options for first‑time buyers, move‑up households, and downsizers. Proximity to the Metra service in Fox Lake and major roadways attracts commuters who want more space and a quieter setting without feeling remote.
With buyer interest flowing in from both Illinois and nearby Walworth County, timing and preparation matter for both sellers and buyers. Agent Pronto can connect you with a Richmond real estate professional who understands the local market cycle and can help you move confidently, whether you are listing or looking to purchase.
See why so many people rely on Agent Pronto to make their real estate journey a success.
“We weren’t sure how to compare the offers on our house beyond the price. Ryan walked us through the financing, contingencies, and closing dates so we understood the differences. He was patient with our questions and kept us updated as we moved toward closing. We appreciated being able to reach him when something came up.”
“I worked with Eric for the better course of a year to land my first property, and Eric demonstrated extreme patience, flexibility, excellent communication, and great professionalism throughout the whole process. Eric is extremely knowledgeable in his expertise and makes the buyer feel comfortable and confident in their decisions. Eric is extremely approachable and supportive, and I would recommend anyone in the buying market to reach out to Eric with any questions, tours, or any housing-related items.”
“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.”
“Renee is an incredibly knowledgeable agent that has a lot of experience, cares about her clients, and is trustworthy !! She knows the ins and outs of current real estate markets and how to strategically price a property so that it will sell in a timely manner but with the highest yield!! She has sold two of our properties over the last eight years (one in Illinois and one in Wisconsin) and we received more than we expected on each of the sales!! We cannot recommend her highly enough! Thank you so much, Renee!!”
“Honestly Ariel is an amazing realtor. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and willing to answer all my random questions as a first time homeowner. She clearly explained the process, was patient when looking at a variety of homes over a year, and was a huge help. 10/10 Recommend!”
“As a first-time home buyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor! Sabrina made the entire home-buying process smooth, easy to understand, and stress-free. She was knowledgeable, responsive, and always there to answer my questions. I truly felt supported every step of the way and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home!”
“Graham was absolutely wonderful to work with during our out of state move. He kept everything feeling smooth and stress free, stayed in great communication, and was always quick to answer any questions we had. His friendly attitude and willingness to help made the whole selling process so much easier. We truly appreciated all his support and would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor!”
“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.”
“Matt did a fantastic job. He is very knowledgeable about the area, and the processes, and all the little tricks to maximize the odds of a successful home purchase. As a buyer from out of state, I can say Matt made the process much better than it could have been. He sent us walkthrough videos of each property (usually within 1-2 hours of my request). Matt goes above and beyond and we could not have asked for a better real estate agent.”
“Branden was wonderful to work with. He is professional, knowledgeable, patient and friendly. This was our first time using a VA home loan, and he took a lot of time to walk us through the process and make sure we were satisfied with everything. Branden was also very direct and realistic in explaining what to expect from the process, especially when our buyers became rather difficult to deal with. I would recommend Branden to anyone looking for a realtor.”
“Sarah was great with me for my townhouse purchase post divorce. She was always ready to meet me very quickly for the 5 or so places I looked at. I ultimately settled on a smaller more affordable unit and she had a great inspector recommendation for me. I learned a lot about the home buying process through her answers to my questions and I also learned about closing details that were important to address for my satisfaction. When the time comes for me to purchase any other real estate, I'm confident that I will call upon her again. She was absolutely helpful and of great help to me.”
“Would use Lizette again, very easy to work with & very professional. Would recommend here 100% to Friends.”
“Teresa did a great job for us. She offered valuable advice during both the purchase of our new home and sale of our old home. She was very responsive when we needed her help. Her mortgage and home remodeling contacts helped tremendously. I highly recommend her.”
“Thank you Tina it was a pleasure working with you”
“Working with Dontae was an absolute pleasure. He made the entire home-buying process easy and stress-free, always taking the time to explain things clearly and answer any questions I had. What I appreciated most was that I never felt pressured. His knowledge of the market and genuine care for finding the right home for me really stood out. I’m grateful for his help and would recommend Dontae to anyone looking for a new home.”
“Connie and her team are an excellent group of real estate agents. They are very knowledgeable about the greater Chicago area. Super responsive, at the top of their game. Provide very valuable advice throughout the process & not pushy at all. Take the time to understand your needs and tailor properties presented accordingly - especially important when you can do much of your own research online. Certainly have your best interest at heart as a client.”
“From start to finish, the team was a pleasure to work with. During the selling process, we never felt pressured and Josh was very quick to respond with any questions. Would recommend to anyone looking for an agent to buy or sell. Top notch!!”
“I had an amazing experience working with Erick when purchasing my new home. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and offered valuable insights into the housing market. Erick was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and responsive, answering all my questions and guiding me through every step of the process. The process of finding the perfect home can be overwhelming, but Erick made it seamless. He was always available to schedule viewings at my convenience, and when we found the right place, he worked tirelessly to ensure my offer was competitive and that all the paperwork was handled efficiently. Thanks to Erick, I now own a home that I absolutely love. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and professional real estate agent.”
“Super knowledgeable of the area and made my first home buying experience a breeze! She is very friendly and easy to communicate with. IHighly recommend Michelle B.”
“My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Mauricio to buy our first property! From the beginning, I was impressed with the presentation he gave us to educate us on the home buying process. As first time home buyers, this made us feel more at ease and confident to dive into the process. We enjoyed going on our first few house tours and we learned a lot from Mauricio on what to look out for which was a big learning experience for me. We never felt pressured throughout the process and we were able to find a property about 1.5 months into our search. Mauricio helped us understand what would make our offer a stronger one. After closing on our home, Mauricio happily provided some resources for us as first time landlords. I was honestly surprised at how smooth the process went as I always thought it would be a lot more complicated. For us, this was more than buying a property, it was also about finding people who have a similar mindset and passion for real estate. Mauricio and his team definitely made us excited for real estate and for what’s to come in the future!”
