Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Near North real estate market, updated for March 2026. *
Near North is currently tilted toward sellers, with a strong market gauge of 8 out of 10 indicating that homes have the upper hand in negotiations. Homes are selling for about 4.1% above list price on average, and 62.5% of recent sales closed above the asking price, highlighting firm demand.
Recent pricing patterns show some cooling from earlier highs even as values are still elevated compared with last year. Typical home values are around $296,000 in February 2026, up 22.06% year over year, while the median list price sits lower at about $226,900 and has dipped 5.06% from the prior month.
Activity on the ground underscores why sellers retain leverage, yet buyers are seeing a bit more breathing room. Homes are going under contract quickly at a median of 26.5 days, inventory has dropped to just 10 active listings even after rising 150% over the past year, and pending sales are up 62.5% with 11 new listings and 13 homes under contract, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from using Agent Pronto to find an agent who understands these fast-moving dynamics.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Near North offers residents a tight-knit community with affordable housing, vibrant local businesses, inviting parks and cultural amenities, and ongoing opportunities to participate in neighborhood revitalization and events.

“Susan helped me sell my dad's house after he unexpectedly passed away in 2025. She was so kind and empathetic about my situation, and very patient as it took us months to empty the house before it was listed. But from the start she worked hard to get us the right resources and information. She was incredibly helpful during the selling process and gave great suggestions on price. She made the process pretty easy!”

Leaning heavily on her experience I had unwavering faith in her to provide valuable consultation in all aspects of the house buying process. Strongly reccomend Heather to any homebuyers.
