Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Sangamon County show a tight but active market. Active listings are relatively steady year over year while homes sold are up more than 11 percent, and pending sales have slipped compared with last June, hinting at a slight cooling in new contract formation even as closings remain strong.
Price trends are responding to that imbalance between demand and new supply. The typical home value is up roughly 19 percent from a year ago and jumped sharply from May, even though the median list price is only slightly higher than last year and has eased month over month.
Speed and competitiveness underline how strongly motivated buyers are. Homes are typically going under contract in just 4 days, months of supply sits at only 1 month compared with about 2.9 months statewide in Illinois, and nearly half of recent sales closed above list price with sale-to-list ratios just over 101 percent, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent to navigate negotiation and timing.

“We had an amazing experience working with Andrew at Century 21 Circle! From the very beginning, Andrew was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, responsive, and always willing to go above and beyond for us. He was quick to respond to every question and did everything he could to get us into showings, even when we needed to move quickly or work around our schedules. Buying a home can be stressful, but Andrew made the process feel so much easier. We always felt like he had our best interests in mind and genuinely wanted to help us find the right home. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor and are so grateful for everything he did to help us find our home! If you’re looking for a realtor, we highly recommend Andrew and the team at Century 21 Circle!”

“I previously used Jeffry Phillips to sell a house I inherited. It was a very emotional time and he was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and gave suggestions of things that could be done to the house prior to selling it. Because that experience was so positive and he was so professional I utilized his services when it was time for me to sell my house. When it came time to sell my home, he was professional and extremely knowledgeable about the Garfield Ridge neighborhood. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends family, and neighbors if they are buying or selling 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.”
