Wilmington real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Wilmington real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Wilmington currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge at 28 even though conditions show some slack. Homes typically value around $283,750, while the median list price is $265,000 and there are 17 properties on the market, giving buyers a fair number of options.
What is driving the seller tilt is that homes are not lingering long, with a median of just 28 days on market and an average sale-to-list ratio close to full price at 0.99. Only about 5.9% of listings have seen price drops and none have sold above list, suggesting sellers are pricing realistically rather than underpricing to spark bidding wars.
Looking ahead to April 2026, typical values are projected to ease to about $258,125 even as the projected median list price rises to $287,500 and inventory edges up to 18 homes. Compared with Will County’s higher typical value of $360,000 and much larger inventory of 1,859 homes, Wilmington offers a smaller, more contained market where recent month-over-month shifts include a 15.3% drop in typical value, a 20.45% jump in list prices, a 74.77% decline in days on market, and a 21.43% rise in inventory. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these mixed signals in Wilmington can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding the right local real estate agent.

Learn more about what Wilmington has to offer.
Wilmington offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with charming local amenities, spacious parks, and ample opportunities to grow, connect, and enjoy a high quality of life.
Wilmington is a small riverfront city where daily life revolves around the Kankakee River, easy regional access, and practical amenities. Located along I‑55 and Route 53, it offers a straightforward commute to larger employment hubs like Joliet and the southwest Chicago suburbs while retaining a lower key pace of life.
Outdoor recreation is a major draw. Residents boat and fish at the Kankakee River State Park, relax along the water in North Island Park, or explore prairie and trails in nearby Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie. Families appreciate community programs through the Wilmington Park District and story times and events at the Wilmington Public Library District.
Day to day, Wilmington offers locally owned dining spots, essential shopping, and schools in Wilmington School District 209U that anchor neighborhood life. Healthcare providers and services in nearby Joliet expand options without feeling far from home, and connections to Braidwood and Coal City broaden work and social possibilities. Residents who enjoy regional exploring find more amenities in Bolingbrook and Plainfield.
Understanding how river corridors, flood zones, older housing stock, and developing areas fit together is essential when buying or selling here. A knowledgeable local agent can clarify neighborhoods, pricing, and future plans, reducing stress from the first showing to closing. Agent Pronto connects Wilmington buyers and sellers with the right real estate professional so you can move forward with confidence.
Trusted by over 500,000 buyers and sellers.

“After a bad experience with another Realtor, Kathy was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn't of been more pleased that I went with the recommendation. Kathy has great attention to detail when it comes to reviewing the home in person and had a very strategic approach in a multiple bid scenario that won my home at a fair market value. She was also extremely responsive at anytime of the day and was always available to answer any questions!!! It was such a relief to have Kathy as my realtor. Truly best in class service!”

“Kim was outstanding throughout both the sale of our home and the purchase of our new one. Her expertise and guidance were instrumental in making the entire process smooth and stress-free. She brings a wealth of knowledge and experience, which was evident every step of the way. We cannot recommend Kim more, and are grateful that she was part of our new home journey! (Our kids loved her too!)”

“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!”

“Larry is by far the most AMAZING Realtor. He was always very responsive to my calls, texts, request, etc. We built up such a great relationship through this crazy process, that even after we closed on our new home, he reached out to check on us. He is always looking to get the best deal for his clients. He is like family now to us and will always have his own seat next to the firepit in our backyard. I would DEFINETLY recommend Larry to anyone and everyone looking to buy or sell. AMAZING.. Can't say enough Great things about Larry.”
