As the warm weather continues and the kids head back to school, the movement of local real estate is continuing at a respectable rate. Demand remains high, as it did in spring and early summer. And, the amount of homes for sale in the area has remained steady in order to meet that demand.
As a broker with 29 years of experience, I tend to evaluate the market frequently and on a very localized level. Looking at the number of homes sold and number of homes on the market, average sale price, median sold price, maximum sold price, and total volume sold generally gives me and my clients solid insight as to what’s happening in the community.

So, What Do This Information and the Current Economy Tell Us? My Predictions
Of the towns we evaluated, only Westmont and Western Springs have increased the year-to-date average sale price. Most towns are experiencing a decline in sales price and the inventory has been steadily rising. For buyers, that is good news especially since they have more inventory to choose from. Interest rates recently moved lower than we’ve seen in 30 months, giving more buying power for buyers and hope for sellers that these favorable interest rates will help cause more sales in this late summer, early fall market.
