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 Wilmington’s typical home value in the rolling three-month view is almost flat, up less than 1 percent to about $210,000. Active listings have dropped by roughly half compared with a year ago, while homes sold are slightly higher over the same period. Pending sales are also modestly above last year, suggesting that even with limited inventory, deals are still getting done.
In the most recent rolling three months through August 2026, only one home was actively listed and one home sold, underscoring how small and tight this market is. Homes are taking longer to sell than a year ago, with median days on market up about 28 percent to 67 days, and the average sale-to-list price ratio has slipped to around 91 percent as no recent sales closed above asking.
Looking back over the historical data, prices have swung over time, with median sale prices in prior years ranging from around $90,000 to over $250,000, reflecting how individual sales can heavily influence metrics in a small area. Inventory has also compressed from as many as nine active listings in mid-2024 to just one recently, further reinforcing South Wilmington’s designation as a seller’s market. With such low supply, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an experienced local agent to navigate these conditions.
Learn more about what South Wilmington has to offer.
South Wilmington offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with convenient amenities, well-kept parks, safe neighborhoods, and abundant opportunities for outdoor recreation, local events, and family-friendly living.
South Wilmington stands out from nearby communities like Braidwood and Coal City with its close-knit scale and strong sense of local identity. Life here revolves around everyday connections, from neighbors chatting along quiet streets to families gathering at South Wilmington Grade School, which anchors the community and reinforces the small-town feel.
Residents enjoy easy access to larger amenities in Wilmington and Dwight, yet South Wilmington maintains a slower pace that many buyers find appealing. The nearby Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie offers miles of trails and open space, while the Des Plaines State Fish and Wildlife Area provides boating, hunting, and fishing opportunities within a short drive. Local dining favorites in surrounding towns, such as RT66 Old School Brewing in Wilmington, round out the lifestyle for those who like low-key evenings close to home.
Housing in South Wilmington ranges from long-held family residences to modest starter homes, and properties can move quickly given limited inventory. Whether you are a current resident considering a sale or a buyer looking for that specific blend of quiet living and regional access to Grundy County, timing and preparation are crucial. Agent Pronto connects you with a local agent who understands South Wilmington’s micro-market, helping both buyers and sellers make smart, well-timed decisions.

“Was impressed from the beginning when the owner answered the phone and made an appointment within a day or two to come out to the property. When we decided to put the house on the market, they were extremely professional And answered all our questions. The photographer came out promptly, and took amazing pictures of the property. It was listed the next day,and our house sold in less than a week. Andrew McCatty was our broker. He could not have been more knowledgeable or professional. Any questions that we had, Andrew either answered the phone or got back to us very quickly. Highly recommend Andrew and Century 21 Circle. Would only work with them again and would recommend them to family and friends.”

“Gergana was outstanding from start to finish. She was straightforward, never sugarcoating, and always on point with her suggestions. From the beginning, she came prepared with a clear plan and executed it flawlessly. I was initially worried about listing the house in January, but thanks to Gergana’s expertise and guidance, we were under contract in less than three days, and we received more than our asking price. Her advice was spot-on, and we’re so glad we followed it. We couldn’t be happier with the results and the smooth experience. If we ever need to sell a house again in the future, Gergana will be our first call. Highly recommended!”
