Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Year-over-year, South Elgin’s rolling three-month data shows prices slightly lower while activity has picked up. The typical home value is down a bit from last year, yet homes sold have climbed more than 20 percent and pending sales are up over 30 percent, signaling stronger buyer engagement.
In the latest rolling period through August 2026, inventory has expanded and listings are moving a bit faster overall. Active listings are up roughly a third from a year ago, months of supply has risen to about 2.3, and median days on market sits around a month and a half, indicating more options without a major slowdown.
Competition is still noticeable even with more homes available. Just over half of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is slightly above 101 percent, reflecting sellers’ continued pricing power while buyers push deals over the finish line. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting but still active conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local South Elgin agent who knows this market well.

“Kim helped us sell our home, and I can’t recommend her enough. She answered my questions late on a Friday and even on a Sunday during a holiday weekend. She was always available when we needed her. In a market where every offer deserved a close look, she helped us sort through them and choose the best one. We’re grateful for her hard work and guidance.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Steve Goodman and the experience we’ve had working with him over the past 10 years. Steve was my realtor when I purchased my very first condo, and 10 years later, he was right there with us as we sold that condo and purchased what we hope will be our forever home. Having the opportunity to work with the same realtor through such an important chapter of our lives speaks volumes about the trust and confidence we have in him. What sets Steve apart is that he genuinely puts his clients’ best interests first. He is never pushy or focused on simply making a sale. Instead, he takes the time to listen, answer every question, offer honest advice, and make sure you feel comfortable with every decision. He is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile.”
“Jeff is a knowledgeable professional. Trustworthy who will give you excellent feedback and advice”
“Catherine Terpstra made herself available to us in our search for a house as we were moving from out of state back to IL. As soon as we contacted her, it felt like she dropped everything "just for us". (We know she was attending to other clinets, as well!) She was very efficient in setting up houses for us to tour, within and without our pricing perameters. She "heard us" in regard to the "non-negotiables" we had for a house for which we were looking. She printed out pertinent infomration on each place for us. We were in a time-crunch, as we had come from out of state to search for a place to live. She was able to help us find a very nice new home. We are very thankful to her for her understanding and expertise in real estate and in the current housing market.”
“She was super nice and very attentive of my needs. She was available 24/7. She helped me so much. She would explain everything in detail and was very patient with me. Overall, she was the best. I would 100% suggest her to my friends and families.”
“Heather was amazing to work with on my recent condo purchase! With her help I was able to meet my needs and deadline to purchase the condo! She is also incredibly helpful in connecting buyers with great people/companies that make the process easy.”
“Paula was fantastic! She was knowledgeable, very responsive, and was able to walk me through the process step-by-step as a first-time seller. Would highly recommend to anyone and everyone!”
“Katherine Rubis was very patient with me during the year that I was looking for homes. She was always available to discuss our next steps or to show me new listings. Every single part of the process that Katherine handled was very smooth and easy for me. She is an outstanding agent and I will definitely call her when I am in the market to sell or buy a home again. There is nothing else she could have done to make me more satisfied with working with her. I have zero complaints.”
“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.”
“Best realtor! Has helped us with two properties and always easy to work with and super prompt with communication. Will be using him for future properties!”
“Working with Cliff Perotti as our selling and buying agent was an outstanding experience from start to finish. His knowledge of the market and the entire home-buying process is exceptional—he seemed to have answers to our questions before we even thought to ask them. What really set Cliff apart was his communication and dedication. We had a challenging loan process, but he navigated it with confidence and kept us informed every step of the way—literally minute by minute. That level of attentiveness gave us a lot of peace of mind during what could have been a very stressful situation. I would not hesitate to recommend Cliff to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. He’s professional, proactive, and truly invested in his clients. We will absolutely be using him again for any future real estate transactions.”
“Would use Lizette again, very easy to work with & very professional. Would recommend here 100% to Friends.”
“John Campobasso was great to work with in selling our unit. He was professional, knowledgeable, and guided us through every step of the process. We really appreciated how upfront and straightforward he was. He always gave us honest feedback and clear expectations. He made the whole experience feel smooth and much less stressful than we anticipated. We’re so glad we worked with him and would definitely recommend his services to anyone looking to buy or sell.”
““Jahari has always been on my radar as someone to partner with in real estate. When the opportunity came, the experience was nothing short of what I expected. He is a very talented professional with plenty of ideas and the ability to bring those ideas to life. His insight and creativity make him a valuable partner in achieving real estate goals. ””
“Thank you Tina it was a pleasure working with you”
“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!”
“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.”
“Very hard worker and knowledgeable in realestate”
“This is our second home purchase/sale with Meghan Jacobs. In each transaction, Meghan was highly professional and engaged in each step of the process. She is highly motiivated to make the process smooth and as as stress-free as possilbe, which is something I really appreciated. Overall, Meghan is a highly-qualified professional and capable individual and someone we will be using in the future if needed. I strongly recommend her services to anyone interested in purchasing a new home or selling an existing home.”
