Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Gary currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge at 25 on the seller’s side. Months of supply sit at 3.7 in this rolling three-month view, indicating inventory is relatively limited. Homes are taking a median of 44 days to sell, showing a moderate pace rather than a rapid-fire market.
Prices have eased slightly over the past year, with the typical home value down about 3 percent year over year. Listing prices have fallen more quickly, dropping nearly 9 percent compared with a year ago, which may give buyers a bit more room to negotiate. Even with softer prices, sales activity has been resilient, as homes sold are up more than 9 percent from last year over this same rolling period.
New listings and pending sales both declined year over year, with new listings down about 17 percent and pending sales off around 8 percent, which helps explain why conditions still tilt toward sellers. Only about 11 percent of homes are closing above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 95 percent, signaling that many sellers are accepting modest discounts to get deals done. With this mix of seller-friendly inventory and buyer-friendly pricing trends, both buyers and sellers in Gary can benefit from working with an experienced local agent that Agent Pronto can help them find.

“Jorrdan was great! He went above and beyond for us! I would highly recommend him to anyone buying a home in Northwest Indiana.”
McColly Real Estate
“Dan Nolan was great. He was very honest and up front from the beginning. We were very pleased with his expertise in real estate. He got us more money than we expected in the sale and what other realtors expected to get. The house was sold within 3 weeks from listing and we were not expecting to show it for two more weeks. Glad we did—we entered into a sales contract in week 3. Very happy with results and would definitely use Dan Nolan again.”

“Cari and Geri was great”
RE/MAX Executives
“I am a 55 year old business man that has purchased a number of primary and secondary residences. Of all of the realtors, Nicole was clearly the best. She was knowledgable and super responsive at all hours. In fact, I am not sure if she sleeps. Nicole helped me identify the exact right condo based on a number of requirements and then helped me to move quickly to lock it down. I would definitely work with Nicole again.”
