“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.”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Feb 2026 - Apr 2026).
Inventory in St. Jacob has expanded in this rolling three-month view, with active listings more than doubling year over year and months of supply rising to just over four months. At the same time, contract activity has intensified, as pending sales are up sharply from a year ago and new listings and closed sales have both increased.
Pricing is adjusting to these shifts, with the typical home value down compared to a year earlier even as the median list price is notably higher than last year. Homes are taking longer to sell, with median days on market up significantly year over year, yet a sizable share of recent sales still went under contract within two weeks and about one‑third of homes closed above their list price.
Overall conditions lean toward sellers based on the market gauge, but rising inventory and longer marketing times give buyers more room to negotiate. In this kind of mixed environment, where values, list prices, and time on market are moving in different directions, having an expert who understands current local data can make a meaningful difference for both sides of a transaction. Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers with a real estate agent in St. Jacob who knows how to navigate these trends and advocate effectively for their goals.

“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.”
“Kathy fought a lot of uphill battles for us and despite hurdles at every turn (with prospective buyer) she pushed on and was able to secure our sale. I can't thank her enough for the amount of work she put in.”
“It was a joy to work with Kathryn she was able to answer every question I had, her knowledge goes a long way and I will definitely recommend her to friends and family.”
“Andrew was so incredibly helpful during the buiying process. We bought first and he helped us naviagte that, while also finding us the perfect homes to look at. He only showed us homes under our budget, and always including everything we wanted. He was incredibly responsive, responding at all hours of the day. He was very knowledgeable about the houses, the process, and what to expect. He help navigate through some difficult situations and helped solve problems for us. I would absultely use Andrew again and recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
“Brittany is an AMAZING realtor and I don't say that lightly. She goes above and beyond to make sure that we are getting everything that we asked for and more. If you are looking for a realtor that goes out of her way to make sure her clients needs are met, you have found your realtor! I could not put into words how happy I am!”
“Lisa was amazing to work with, she was very professional, had great communication, and knowledge of everything we had questions about, was was very personable. She made the house buying process way easier and way less scary than people make it seem.”
“It was a pleasure to work with Robert, he paid a lot of attention to our expectations and preferences, and he is strong in negotiating.”
“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.”
“Working with Ray was an absolute blessing throughout my home buying journey. He went above and beyond every step of the way, always remaining patient, professional, and supportive through all of the ups and downs that came along the process. No matter the challenge, Ray stayed committed and made sure I felt informed and encouraged the entire time. His dedication, communication, and genuine care truly made a difference, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and hardworking realtor.”
“Heather was very helpful from beginning to end even with the struggles and challenges we gave her.”
“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”
“Melissa Young was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable which was critical for me as a first-time home buyer. She helped me win my very first bid with a strong offer and guided me through challenges with the appraisal process. She sets the bar high and I am so happy with my beautiful first home in Chicago!”
“To be honest Ralph was the best part of my team. He's a good person and if it wasn't for him I wouldn't know half of what I know about buying a house Thanks Ralph”
“Thanks for your help in purchasing our first home!”
“Great experience! Very attentive, honest, and dedicated. Professional, efficient, and easy to work with. Highly recommended!”
“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!”
