Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026).

Inventory in Sangamon County has been building this spring, with active listings rising about 17 percent month over month to 486 and new listings up more than 18 percent. Even with that increase, supply is still tight at just 1.2 months, well below Illinois overall at 3 months, which keeps conditions tilted toward sellers.

Contract activity is solid but not surging, as homes sold dipped slightly from last month and are down modestly from a year ago, while pending sales show a similar year-over-year decline. Buyers are still moving quickly when they find the right home, with the median days on market dropping sharply to just 7 days.

Pricing is behaving in an interesting way, with the typical home value down year over year even as the median list price has jumped more than 30 percent over the same period. At the same time, negotiation power is leaning toward sellers, as about 34 percent of homes are selling above list and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged just over 100 percent. In this kind of fast-moving seller’s market with shifting price signals, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with a local agent who understands these dynamics.

“Kim has sold two properties for me this year, and in both transactions she did a fantastic job. She was always responsive, communicated clearly throughout the process, and took the time to answer every question I had. Her professionalism, market knowledge, and attention to detail made each sale go smoothly. I would highly recommend Kim and her team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the area. Based on my experiences, I personally would not hire any other agent to sell a house.”

“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.”

“Steve was always available, knowledgeable, and willing to listen to our thoughts and concerns about selling our home. More importantly, the selling of our home in tandem of purchasing a new home at the same time, went really well. If we needed to move again (heaven forbid) I wouldn't hesitate to have Steve again.”

“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.”

“Becki from Laura Topp’s team was incredible in helping me purchase my first property, a brick 2-flat in Chicago’s highly competitive north and west side market. Inventory was extremely limited and we toured at least 20 properties throughout the process. Becki was consistently accommodating with her time, prepared detailed reports for every showing and approached each opportunity with a thoughtful strategy. She genuinely treated the search as if she were buying the property for herself. When we finally found the right building, Becki skillfully negotiated with the listing agent and played a major role in getting the deal done while still protecting my interests and keeping the transaction together. The listing agent even praised her professionalism and credited her with helping secure the deal. Throughout closing, she remained diligent, communicative and focused on making sure I understood every step of the process and felt protected as a buyer. I cannot recommend Becki and Laura Topp”

“We relocated from an area where we had lived our entire lives, and the prospect of moving to another state can often be quite challenging. However, our experience with Kimberly was exceptionally smooth and seamless. Her expertise, combined with the thoughtful and tailored feedback she provided based on our specific criteria, proved invaluable throughout the entire process. She conducted herself with the utmost professionalism while also making us feel genuinely supported, as though we were family. We would highly recommend her to any prospective buyers or sellers seeking a dedicated and knowledgeable real estate professional.”

“Our house could be considered high end property in the neighborhood. Cinny worked hard to get it under the contract in a week and sold our house a little over a month. We are happy about the result. During the process, there were ups and downs which made us nervious. Cinny listened to our concerns and gave us professional advice.”

“Dayana is the realtor for the buyer looking to purchase in a seller's market. Her expertise was the key to our acquiring the property we now own. From showing us various properties, to continually checking in with us, to putting together a competitive and timely offer, to connecting us with a good attorney, to negotiating the terms of the contract, and otherwise guiding us through the process, Dayana was the best. Thank you Dayana!”
