Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year over year, Vernon Hills home values have climbed notably, with the typical home value up about 14 percent in this rolling three-month window. Median list prices have risen even faster, increasing more than 16 percent from a year ago. At the same time, months of supply has dropped by roughly a quarter, reinforcing a seller’s market backdrop.
Looking at the latest rolling three-month period ending in September 2026, typical home values and median list prices are both just under $465,000, showing sellers are pricing close to what buyers ultimately pay. The average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 100 percent, and about 37 percent of recent sales closed above the list price, signaling buyers still face strong pricing power from sellers.
Activity has cooled slightly but remains steady, with homes sold up about 3 percent year over year while new listings and active inventory are both down a bit. Median days on market has edged up to 50 days, giving buyers a bit more time to decide even as low supply keeps conditions tilted toward sellers. With months of supply at just 2.5 and pending sales up more than 5 percent from last year, Agent Pronto can help both buyers and sellers in Vernon Hills connect with a local agent who understands these shifting dynamics.
Vernon Hills offers residents a family-friendly community with top-tier schools, safe neighborhoods, abundant parks and recreation, and convenient shopping, dining, and commuting options that foster connection and a high quality of life.
Vernon Hills stands out from nearby North Shore and Libertyville communities by pairing strong retail and corporate hubs with an easy, neighborly feel. Residents appreciate that daily conveniences are minutes away, yet tree lined streets, lakes, and parks still define the landscape.
At the heart of local life is Century Park, with paths, playgrounds, Big and Little Bear Lakes, and seasonal festivals that bring the community together. Shopping and dining center on Hawthorn Mall and the Milwaukee Avenue corridor, balanced by smaller local favorites and cafes. Families often prioritize schools, and the Hawthorn School District 73 and Vernon Hills High School consistently draw interest from across Lake County.
Outdoor enthusiasts benefit from the Vernon Hills Park District system and access to regional trails. The nearby Des Plaines River Trail and forest preserves expand options for running, biking, and weekend walks. Community resources like the Vernon Area Public Library and Village of Vernon Hills events create a strong sense of connection for long time residents and newcomers alike.
Whether you are upgrading, downsizing, or relocating from Chicago, timing and preparation matter in this competitive, well informed market. Agent Pronto can connect you with a local Vernon Hills real estate professional who understands current trends and can guide both buyers and sellers from planning through closing.

“We weren’t sure how to compare the offers on our house beyond the price. Ryan walked us through the financing, contingencies, and closing dates so we understood the differences. He was patient with our questions and kept us updated as we moved toward closing. We appreciated being able to reach him when something came up.”
“Holly was everything and more I could ask for when I needed someone to help me with the sale of my home. After moving across country, holly orchestrated everything; from pictures to showings, to letting junk removal in, to double checking things for me. She was always a phone call away and incredibly responsive to any inquiries I had (there were a lot). Being states away now from my property, Holly made me feel at ease. And with settling into a new place and a new job, suddenly the sale of my house was on the back of my mind because I knew Holly could take care of everything. Listed with gorgeous pictures right away, four offers in less than a week and a half, and a final offer that was above asking, she did everything I needed and more. Couldn’t recommend a better realtor for your needs.”
“I worked with Eric for the better course of a year to land my first property, and Eric demonstrated extreme patience, flexibility, excellent communication, and great professionalism throughout the whole process. Eric is extremely knowledgeable in his expertise and makes the buyer feel comfortable and confident in their decisions. Eric is extremely approachable and supportive, and I would recommend anyone in the buying market to reach out to Eric with any questions, tours, or any housing-related items.”
“In today’s world, when reviewing a product and/or business, Artificial Intelligence tends to be used to get it done in a fast and efficient manner. That would be an absolute disservice to Miriam’s work product and personality. She is genuine. She is responsive. She is intelligent. She is kind. My favorite aspect of Miriam’s work is her past experience working at a property management company. She understands how a building is run, the importance of the building’s budget, and other minor details you would never even think of. She is simply the best, and you should definitely give her the opportunity to help you find your new home!”
“My realtor nick and his team were phenomenal. It was my first time buying a home and they answered all my questions and helped me every step of the way. Made the whole process very easy. You definitely want them in your corner when purchasing a home.”
“I highly recommend working with Cesar. One of the things I liked best about working with him was that he really seemed to have my best interests at heart. This man will be pulling out his phone light checking basement corners for any signs of mold or water and checking above every stove to see if there’s a proper vent or not. He noticed many things on walk throughs that my parents and I may have just breezed right past and he makes sure to point out the things he notices, good or bad. They say never trust a sales person but idk, I think Cesar’s just in it for the love of the game at this point. I dragged this man to a LOT of houses and he never once rushed me. He was very insistent that we need to find the right fit for me and that I not go past the amount of money I was comfortable with. This was my first time buying a home so I had about 80,000 questions and he was always happy to talk through any questions or concerns. He’s a fun guy to work with as well. In these trying times you need a sense of humor or the home buying process will be miserable. All in all I would definitely recommend working with him.”
“With Diana’s marketing expertise and beautiful professional photos of our house, our house got $100k overasking within the first 24hrs of our listing going live. She did an amazing job protecting our interest and shielding us from random inquiries. We had more than 14 showings in 48 hrs, multiple offers, and several bids.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better agent than Christin Kaufman to help us sell our home. Our transaction turned out to be far more challenging than we ever expected. We were dealing with an extremely demanding buyer and what seemed like an endless stream of questions, concerns, and new requests. Through all of it, Christin was fantastic. She stayed calm, kept us focused on the end goal, helped us separate the important issues from the noise, and guided us through every new twist without letting the process get off track. She was always responsive, patient, and willing to talk through our options. Anyone can look like a great real estate agent when a transaction goes perfectly. You really learn the value of your agent when things get difficult. Christin proved her value to us over and over again and ultimately helped us get across the finish line. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did for us and would recommend Christin without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
“Renee is an incredibly knowledgeable agent that has a lot of experience, cares about her clients, and is trustworthy !! She knows the ins and outs of current real estate markets and how to strategically price a property so that it will sell in a timely manner but with the highest yield!! She has sold two of our properties over the last eight years (one in Illinois and one in Wisconsin) and we received more than we expected on each of the sales!! We cannot recommend her highly enough! Thank you so much, Renee!!”
“Scott has been an absolute pleasure to work with for the sale of our condo and now for purchasing our new home. His marketing tactics really helped with scheduling consistent showings for our condo, ultimately resulting in a 30 day close! Timing was of the essence for this particular sale and he was able to get it done with his timely follow-ups, expertise, and extensive knowledge. Not only did he make the process so smooth, he was also easily accessible and available for any questions we had. He can really do it all - from coming to fix a broken lock box to having a successful close all together. I could not recommend Scott enough for everything he has done for us!”
“I highly recommend working with Meldina! She is incredibly accommodating and always willing to show the properties, even on the short notice. She is very knowledgeable about the location we are exploring and her positive attitude, amazing energy and solution oriented mindset truly make a difference.Her professionalism and enthusiasm make the entire experience enjoyable. Thank you, Meldina, for you outstanding support and dedication.”
“We trusted Marek Prus because of his excellent reputation in the real estate business, and he did not disappoint. He did a great job selling our condo, and buying our new townhouse. Marek was diligent, on time and prepared every time. He truly cared about our unique situation. From handling negotiations to resolving last minute hiccups, Marek Prus proved to be an excellent problem solver. Thanks to his vast knowledge and experience, we felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire selling and buying process. We strongly recommend him to anyone! Thank You Marek!”
“Marla did an outstanding job assisting us finding the right home for us. She was very helpful and understood our needs. With her experience we was able to finalize our 1st home in timely manner. She is the perfect realtor who will go above and beyond to find the right place/home for you.”
“Working with Steve was an incredible experience from start to finish. I had the utmost confidence that he was always looking out for my best interests. He was knowledgeable, responsive, honest, and patient throughout every step of the process. No question was ever too small, and I always felt informed and supported when making important decisions. His professionalism and dedication made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel smooth and manageable. I truly felt like I had someone in my corner the entire time, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a realtor they can genuinely trust. Thank you for going above and beyond!”
“I don’t know how she does it, but Marina is truly exceptional at her craft! She helped us close on a house in Mount Prospect, even in the hardest market to buy. I have no words to describe how amazing she is but she doesn’t need them, her work speaks for itself! Thank you always Marina!”
“Jem did an amazing job helping me find my home . She was thoughtful, and definitely had my best interest in mind . She was right by my side through the entire process , advocated for me . Her knowledge and expertise is exceptional as well as her negotiating skills . Thanks to Jen I was able to find the home I was looking for, my perfect fit. She took the time to understand my needs and preferences and did an amazing job. Definitely recommend without hesitation. Thank you Jem !!!”
“I have had the pleasure of working with Andrew and his team on the sale of two homes, as well as the purchase of another. Throughout each transaction, the team was consistently efficient, friendly, and professional. I was kept well informed at every stage of the process, and everything was explained clearly and thoroughly. Any questions I had were addressed promptly, and I always felt that my needs and concerns were given careful attention. I would highly recommend Andrew and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Their professionalism, communication, and commitment to providing excellent service made each experience a very positive one.”
“We are so incredibly grateful to have had Bryce Fuller with The Fuller Force Team help us find our first home! From the very beginning, Bryce made what could have been a stressful and overwhelming process feel so much easier and more exciting. He was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely listened to what we were looking for. He never made us feel pressured and always took the time to answer our questions, explain things, and make sure we felt comfortable with every decision along the way. It was clear from the start that he truly cared about finding the right home for us and not just making a sale. Buying our first home is such a huge milestone for us, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor to experience it with. Bryce went above and beyond throughout the entire process, and we are so thankful for all of his hard work, guidance, and support. We absolutely love our new home and are so excited for this next chapter of our lives. We would recommend Bryce and The Fuller Force Team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. We couldn’t be happier with our experience!”
“Working with Anthony was an absolute game-changer for us as first-time home buyers. He knows the local market inside and out, he answered all of our (many) questions at any time of the day, and not only was he very professional and reliable, but we knew throughout the process that he genuinely cared about us and our satisfaction. Now we have our dream home! I'm so glad we had Anthony working with us throughout this process, and we highly recommend him!”
“John is one in a million. I've worked with other real estate agents, but none with his depth of knowledge of the Chicago suburbs market. His comp analysis is thorough, and his negotiation experience will land you a great deal. I won't work with another agent again. John is our guy!”
