Sycamore real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Sycamore real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Sycamore currently leans toward sellers, with a market gauge of 21 indicating they still have a modest edge. That status is supported by just 3.4 months of supply, a typical home value of about $317,000, and a median list price near $325,000.
Homes are taking longer to sell, with the median days on market stretching to 98, up more than 32% month over month and 104% year over year. Even with that slower pace, buyers are paying close to asking, as shown by an average sale-to-list ratio of 0.99 and roughly 16% of sales closing above list price.
Looking ahead to March 2026, typical home values are projected to rise toward $343,025 even as the projected median list price edges down to about $306,000 and inventory nudges up to 67 homes. Compared with DeKalb County as a whole, where typical values sit around $305,000 and inventory totals about 247 listings, Sycamore’s prices are slightly higher but still directionally similar. New listings have grown over 42% year over year while pending sales are up about 29%, signaling more activity on both sides of the table. In this environment of rising values and increasing options, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands the Sycamore market dynamics.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
