Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year over year, University Park’s rolling three-month numbers show moderate price growth alongside softer activity. Typical home values are up about 4% from last year, and the median list price has climbed nearly 10%, pointing to firmer seller expectations. At the same time, homes sold are down roughly 27% and active listings have fallen about 25%, indicating fewer completed deals and a leaner pool of properties.
In the latest rolling three-month period through September 2026, the typical home value sits around $190,000, with a median list price just over $215,000. Homes are taking a bit longer to move compared with last year, with a median of 64 days on market and about 31% of recent sales closing above the asking price.
Supply conditions have shifted meaningfully, with months of supply nearly doubling year over year to about 5.7 months, even as the number of new listings slipped slightly. The average sale-to-list price ratio has eased to roughly 95%, suggesting buyers have a bit more room to negotiate than they did a year ago. With a seller’s market reading on the local gauge but more balance emerging in the data, both buyers and sellers in University Park can benefit from using Agent Pronto to connect with an experienced real estate agent who understands these evolving trends.
Learn more about what University Park has to offer.
University Park offers residents a welcoming, family-friendly community with essential amenities, well-maintained parks, local shops, and convenient access to transportation and services.
University Park stands out from nearby south suburban communities with its intentional planning, strong educational presence, and quieter residential feel surrounded by green space. Home to Governors State University, the village blends an academic atmosphere with established neighborhoods, wooded areas, and easy access to Chicago via I‑57 and the Metra Electric line from nearby Richton Park.
Residents appreciate the open layout, larger lots, and access to nature. The Nathan Manilow Sculpture Park on the Governors State campus offers an outdoor art experience that feels far from typical suburban life. Families value local schools such as Crete‑Monee High School and community resources like the University Park Public Library, which hosts programs for all ages.
Recreation is a key part of local life. Trails and green spaces connect to the wider Forest Preserves of Cook County, and residents often pair trips into Chicago or Tinley Park with everyday conveniences closer to home. Nearby cultural and shopping options in Orland Park and Matteson help round out the lifestyle.
With ongoing investment tied to the university and regional growth, timing and preparation matter in this market. Whether you are planning a first purchase near campus or considering the best moment to list a longtime home, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local real estate agent who understands University Park and can guide both buyers and sellers with confidence.

“Kim Wirtz from Wirtz reality did an amazing job marketing my house in Lockport. It pretty much sold in one day! Thank you Kim for your expertise in the area. I would and will recommend you to everyone I know.”
“I have worked with Barb for years and she was so patient and understanding to my situation and was amazing with communication.”
“Our real estate agent, Nicole Canny, from Mike McCatty office is fantastic and I highly recommend her to everyone. She has been looking for the perfect house for my daughter and husband and their family for about 2 years now as they had certain requirements for a new house and a certain area they wanted to live in also. Nicole was persistent and she finally found the perfect home for them and the purchase all went quickly, smoothly and was a great experience overall. Thanks to Nicole Canny and now she will be able to sell their old house also.”
“Katie is very knowledgeable, thorough and kind. She worked very diligently with me to find an apartment/condo to rent! She was able to give me recommendations that I would not have found or considered on my own. I could not have asked for a better agent to work with! I have lived in a house for 30 years and really had no idea what to look for when choosing and apartment or condo. She helped me find the perfect new home, a lovely condo for rent!! Katie stayed on top of everything from setting up appointments to following through with my new landlady. She is intelligent, hardworking sweet and thoughtful. I highly recommend her to anyone renting or buying!!”
“It was a pleasure working with Emily. She went above and beyond and very knowledgeable with any questions i may have had. She was always available late nights and weekends. I would highly recommend Emily.”
“Ray Roswell provided exceptional service throughout the process. His assistance in locating a new home, combined with his expertise in the sale of manufactured homes, was invaluable. I confidently recommend him to anyone considering buying or selling a home.”
“Kate Doyle is the best Naperville realtor. Honesty, knowledgable, integrity, patience and pure heart kindness with compassion describes Katie Doyle! Katie treated us like family! Katie communicated fast in minutes via text or call. A huge selling point for me. Katie is professional, positive, upbeat, kind, charismatic with a contagious genuine smile. Katie follows up post home sale quickly too while her personal investment is professional meeting all our needs pre and post buying! Katie alleviated my anxiety with a positive interpersonal approach which I so appreciated! My family connected easy and well with open communication! Katie demonstrated always a kind professional approach to buying my home in Naperville as this was my 7th home bought so I was a veteran too. Katie is smart and well deserved! Katie will be selling my other home too! We love you Katie Doyle! Thank you! Barbie C. Erika W. Skylar W.”
“Rebecca is incredible. When we first bought our house we had to do it from six hundred miles away, and she was able to provide essential local knowledge and walk us through every step of our first home purchase. She cares a lot about educating her clients about the real estate market and teaching them how to evaluate a house. She seems to magically know anything and everything about a property when showing it, even if we were looking at more than half a dozen houses that day (which we did more than once because our visits to the area were so infrequent when we were trying to buy.) When problems arose it was a Godsend to have her on our side to work everything out for us and make sure we got everything we were supposed to and didn't get taken advantage of at any point. She includes many extras that make both the buying and selling experience better. We loved Rebecca so much that when we had to sell that home two years later because our work took us elsewhere, there was no other agent we'd have been willing to work with. We thought we would take a horrendous loss after moving again so soon, but she helped us navigate a quick sale at an excellent price, and once again she was able to help us from a distance when things went wrong—this time from over two thousand miles away, since we had already moved. We would work only with her for the rest of our lives if we could, but since we can't have that we decided not to work with another agent unless he/she'd been vetted by Rebecca for us.”
“Michelle was exceptional throughout the entire home-buying process! She was always on top of the paperwork, deadlines, and everything we needed to get our purchase completed. Her responsiveness, organization, and attention to detail made the process so much smoother. We truly appreciated all her hard work and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home!”
“I highly recommend Jason as a realtor! He was professional, honest, trustworthy, and truly made the process of selling my home feel smooth and stress-free. He was always responsive, knowledgeable, and had my best interests in mind throughout the entire process. I felt confident knowing I was in good hands. Thank you, Jason, for your hard work and professionalism!”
“Graham was absolutely wonderful to work with during our out of state move. He kept everything feeling smooth and stress free, stayed in great communication, and was always quick to answer any questions we had. His friendly attitude and willingness to help made the whole selling process so much easier. We truly appreciated all his support and would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor!”
“Working with Bryce was a fantastic experience! He is professional, knowledgeable and went above and beyond at every step of the process. He took the time to truly understand what I was looking for in a new home and he expertly negotiated on my behalf. I would highly recommend Bryce to anyone who is looking for a dedicated real estate agent who has your best interest.”
“Simply the Best Marge goes above and beyond Wouldn’t have survived this difficult process without her! She navigated all of the paperwork for me, boosted my spirits when I was down and found a beautiful new hom for me to move to Between difficult paperwork and complicated processes, Marge always led the way with confidence and ease Her personality is so uplifting that you know it’ll be alright Thank you!”
“Selling our condo was a much smoother experience than I expected, and I truly have Larry to thank for that. From the very beginning, he was knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly professional. Night or Day, weekday or weekend Larry answered the phone and communicated actively any information about the process to us. A true professional. He guided us through every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and always made us feel confident in the decisions we were making. What impressed me most was his negotiation skills. Larry advocated for our best interests every step of the way and worked hard to secure the best possible outcome. We always felt like he had our back and never settled for less than what our home was worth. If you’re looking for an agent who is honest, strategic, communicative, and genuinely invested in their clients, we can’t recommend Larry Lazar highly enough. Selling a home can be stressful, but he made the entire process seamless. We would absolutely work with him again and recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home.”
“Working with Henry and the Heart of Chicago Homes team was an incredible experience from start to finish. Throughout the entire process, I always felt supported, informed, and confident knowing he and the team had our best interests in mind. We were searching in one of the most competitive markets, and the townhome we fell in love with ended up receiving multiple offers. Although our offer wasn’t accepted initially, Henry stayed persistent and maintained consistent communication with the listing agent. Thanks to his dedication and follow-up, he was able to position us next in line and ultimately help us secure our dream home when the first deal fell through. Even though we originally had the second-best offer, his hard work, relationships, and determination made all the difference. We couldn’t be more grateful and would highly recommend Henry and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
“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”
“Jakeshia Thomas provided a great service. She helped us navigate a concurrent closing deal involving multiple real estate transactions, She repeated us, the buyers. She went above and beyond, making our real estate experience smooth and stress-free. Her level of professionalism and patience when working with first-time is unmatched. I can’t say enough positive things about her.”
“Reggie was amazing and so supportive through the whole process. He always took the time to explain anything that was confusing to me as a first time home buyer and he helped me find everyone else I needed to help me with the home buying process like a loan processor and attorney and everything. Highly recommend him to anyone and everyone!”
“Britny has helped me buy my first home as a veteran. We have had a few downs at first but she never gave up in our search of a home she would provide new homes to look at, and she would update us with what was going on. She had great communication with us as well with the other parties involved. Britny is a nice kind person who cares about her clients, I’m glad I had an awesome realtor that helped me buy my first beautiful home that I’m happy with.”
