Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Inventory in Lake Forest has loosened somewhat in this rolling three-month view, with active listings up sharply year over year and new listings climbing by more than half. Contract activity is strong as well, with homes sold and pending sales both higher than a year ago, signaling steady buyer demand.
Pricing has moved upward compared with last year, as the typical home value is modestly higher and the median list price has also risen. Even with that appreciation, Lake Forest still sits above the broader Fort Wayne market on price, with a higher typical value than the citywide median sale price.
Conditions still lean toward sellers, with just 1.2 months of supply in Lake Forest compared with 1.8 months across Fort Wayne and an average sale-to-list ratio holding just above 100 percent. Buyers face quick decisions in this area, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a local agent who understands these trends.

“Tyler was such a delight to work with. He absolutely listened to all of my concerns and needs when looking for a home. Tyler was easy to communicate with and always available for answering my questions. His professionalism outshines any other agent I have ever known. Tyler always kept me up-to-date with any and all progression during my home buying experience. I couldn't have asked for anyone better because I don't think someone out there exists. Thank you Tyler!”
