“Kim Wirtz was amazing to work with! She’s professional, knowledgeable, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Kim to anyone buying or selling a home.”
“Nancy Silwa is an experienced realtor who knows her profession. She knows, and in fact lives in the area, where I was selling my house. This was a bonus as she really had a handle on the market. She walked with me every step of the way so that I understood the process. I was selling a home I had lived in for 43 years. Nancy understood the emotional impact of this decision and gently helped me stay focused on the task at hand: sell the house. She found the perfect buyers. A young couple who will make my house their home. Knowing this made selling my home a little easier. I would and indeed have recommended Nancy to others. She is simply THE BEST!”
“Very friendly and approachable person. Very easy to work with. Was really invested in the process and treated us with respect. I don't feel like just another client when working with her.”
“Working with James was a terrific experience. He is most knowledgeable and realistic when evaluating real estate. He always kept me informed and had timely calls regarding our next decisions. I recommend him most highly.”
“Thank you, Agent Pronto, for recommending Karl. He was an amazing agent and just got the job done! I would recommend your service and Karl to any future home sellers or buyers!!!”
“Larry was more than a Real Estate Agent. He was more like a Family Friend. I am truly blessed and grateful to have worked with him. My home is everything I imagined it would be.”
“Kathy was able to get my house on the market in a day, and sold in 4! I was on the private and right when I hit the MLS it sold. Very impressed with the quick turn around. Kathy also introduced me to the private network which I was able to find my future home from! This is something not all realtors have been sharing so that was a nice feature that I enjoyed! Kathy made sure this transaction went smoothly and got involved when needed. My sale got pushed back a few days and Kathy sent hours on the phone making sure this deal was going to go through. Very impressed with her hard-work and dedication she provides her clients. She really cares about you and wants you to be happy along the way!”
“always there when we had questions and we had lots”
“The agent, Sarah Leonard, was the most efficient and helpful realtor we've ever had represent us. I highly recommend her team to anyone in the area. Thank you for the excellent referral.”
“Donna helped us find the home that had everything we wanted in the perfect area! She had the offer put in the same day on the house we wanted and walked us through each step and bump in the road. There were some issues with the house after the inspection that she addressed which allowed us to get a credit toward getting it fixed! I would highly recommend Donna to anyone, She is personable, kind, and so genuine. She’s amazing at what she does!! Thank you for helping us get the house of our dreams.”
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Rockford real estate market, updated for September 2025. *
The typical home value in Rockford is projected to be $180,330 for the month of August. July’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $175,000—up 10.06% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $207,000 in Winnebago County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $214,250 in August.
Rockford had 176 new listings and 190 listings that went under contract in July, decreasing the area’s total available inventory to 164—down 5.2% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further decreased in August.
Of those 164 active listings, 28.05% reduced their price in the month of July. The median listing price for homes in Rockford fell 2.3% from June to July, bringing the current median listing price to $169,900. Based on projected data for August, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract fell year-over-year. In July 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 12 days, compared to 17 days in July 2024. In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be steady. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this August.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Rockford offers residents a balanced mix of affordable living, welcoming neighborhoods, abundant parks and outdoor recreation, a growing arts and culture scene, solid schools, and a strong sense of community.
Rockford moves with the flow of the Rock River, pairing urban energy with approachable neighborhoods and elbow room. Residents enjoy a cost of living that stretches further, a growing downtown scene, and quick access to miles of forest preserves and bike paths. Weekdays are practical—strong healthcare and manufacturing employers anchor the area—while weekends come easy with quick hops to Loves Park and Machesney Park for shopping and recreation, plus countywide amenities centered in the seat of Winnebago County. Historic architecture mixes with new builds, offering choices from riverfront bungalows to modern townhomes.
Culture and outdoors are everyday staples. Stroll koi-filled pathways at Anderson Japanese Gardens, glide beneath palm fronds at Nicholas Conservatory & Gardens, or let kids tinker and explore at the award-winning Discovery Center Museum. Summer brings riverfront concerts at Sinnissippi, the ornate Coronado Performing Arts Center’s marquee performances, and farmers and makers at Rockford City Market. Trails, golf courses, and nearby Rock Cut State Park reward hikers, paddlers, and cyclists with room to roam.
Families value schools supported by Rockford Public Schools, with magnet and academy options, career and technical pathways, and dual-credit partnerships. Higher education opportunities at Rock Valley College and Rockford University add momentum, while in-town neighborhoods like Edgewater deliver character and walkable streets. Whether you’re settling into your first home or preparing to list, Agent Pronto can connect you with a top local real estate professional to help you move with confidence.
