The median list price in the city reached $395K in mid-Q3, and with active listings at 15,100, we\u2019re still operating in a landscape shaped by tight inventory\u2014down about 6% from last year. Homes are moving quickly too, with a median of just 36 days on market. Across Illinois, supply remains the central story: we haven\u2019t seen inventory rebound to pre-pandemic levels, placing us among the slower recoveries nationwide.

Even as mortgage rates hover near 7% and affordability remains a concern, limited options are fueling competition for quality properties and shaping the decisions of buyers, sellers, and investors well into 2026. Navigating these complexities takes deep market expertise and a commitment to delivering the highest level of service\u2014something I\u2019m proud to provide, no matter where your real estate goals lead.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chicago\u2019s real estate market continues to demonstrate remarkable resilience this year.
