Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in East Chicago has tightened notably in the latest rolling three-month view, with active listings down more than a third year over year and new listings dropping by about half. Contract activity is also slower than a year ago, as homes sold and pending sales are each down roughly 20 to 45 percent, indicating fewer deals moving from listing to closing.
Pricing has shown resilience despite the pullback in activity, with the typical home value up around 5 percent compared with a year earlier. At the same time, the median list price has fallen nearly 10 percent year over year, suggesting sellers are adjusting asking prices even as closed-sale values edge higher.
Time on market has lengthened, with the median days on market up slightly from last year and about double what it was just a quarter ago, while months of supply remains low at just over two months, reinforcing the current seller’s market designation. A little over one in five homes are still selling above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio has inched up year over year, showing that well-positioned properties can attract solid offers, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands how to navigate these conditions.

“Do you want someone who's going to go above and beyond for you? Someone who is warm welcoming and a friendly personality? Then Christina is the one for you. My first time buying a house and she was incredible. I felt I was asking dumb questions and she always assured me that she was there for me and that it wasn't. My boys also absolutely love her. If I ever decide to buy another house for what ever reason, she's my first call. As well as who I recommend to anyone looking for a relator. Christina, if you see this. Thank you for being the incredible person you are!”

“Zoe is a fantastic realtor! We were buying our first house, which we thought would be a super stressful process. Fortunately, we had Zoe as our realtor. She made the entire process stress free. She has extensive knowledge about the market and all the things that comes with buying a home. When we would ask her questions, she was extremely responsive and got back to us quickly. She also would reach out to the seller‘s realtor and ask many questions on our behalf. With her expertise, knowledge, and guidance she was able to get us our dream house without us being the highest offer!!! If you are looking to buy or sell and want someone who is professional, who has a lot of knowledge, and will fight for you, Zoe is the realtor you are looking for!”

“We decided to work with Rob because of his impressive sales records in the area and his obvious effective marketing strategies. He knew exactly when to list the property, hold an open house and allow showings in order for us to get the best offers on our house. We received multiple offers on our house, all over asking price, within four days of listing the home. That proved he knew the market well and priced our house perfectly. Rob is extremely professional, intelligent and trustworthy. He answered all of our calls, texts and emails as quickly as he could and we felt as if we were his top priority at all times. We are so happy we chose to work with Rob and would gladly refer him to any friends or family.”
