Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Inventory in Winthrop Harbor has expanded modestly in this rolling three-month view, with 52 active listings and 35 new listings, both slightly higher than a year ago. Contract activity is also stronger year over year, as homes sold have edged up and pending sales have risen nearly 7 percent, signaling steady buyer demand.
Pricing is showing measured upward movement rather than sharp swings. The typical home value is just over $310,000, up slightly from last year, while the median list price has climbed almost 4 percent year over year, suggesting sellers are testing somewhat higher price points.
Speed and negotiation patterns point to a market that still favors sellers but allows some room for buyers. Homes are taking a median of 48 days to sell in this rolling period, yet months of supply has dropped more than a third from last year to just 2.4 months and the average sale-to-list ratio is essentially at 100 percent, with a growing share of homes closing above list price. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands the Winthrop Harbor market.

“Catherine Terpstra made herself available to us in our search for a house as we were moving from out of state back to IL. As soon as we contacted her, it felt like she dropped everything "just for us". (We know she was attending to other clinets, as well!) She was very efficient in setting up houses for us to tour, within and without our pricing perameters. She "heard us" in regard to the "non-negotiables" we had for a house for which we were looking. She printed out pertinent infomration on each place for us. We were in a time-crunch, as we had come from out of state to search for a place to live. She was able to help us find a very nice new home. We are very thankful to her for her understanding and expertise in real estate and in the current housing market.”
