🏡 The Goddard Report – Mid-Week Real Estate Market Update – January 14, 2026
ACTIVE Property Inventory Count – Attached and Detached Homes
Total available homes in the MLS: 16,810
Inventory numbers of select towns as of: January 14, 2026
📊 Market Overview
As we settle further into the new year, inventory across the northwest suburbs remains tight but active. Post–New Year listings are continuing to come online, but overall supply remains constrained—particularly for detached homes in many communities. Buyers are re-engaging after the holidays, while sellers entering the market now are benefiting from reduced competition compared to peak spring conditions.
New construction remains limited in most towns and is already included in each town’s total inventory count.
🏘️ Active Listings by Town
(Total Homes | Detached | Attached | New Construction)
Elgin continues to lead the region in total inventory, driven primarily by detached homes and ongoing new construction activity.
Schaumburg remains heavily weighted toward attached housing, offering more affordability options for buyers seeking townhomes and condos.
Medinah, Wayne, Winfield, and Itasca remain extremely limited, with very few active listings overall.
Detached inventory remains constrained across most towns, keeping well-priced homes competitive even in winter conditions.
🤔 Thinking About a Move?
Whether you’re considering selling now to take advantage of limited inventory—or planning ahead for a spring purchase—we’re here to help you navigate the market with clarity and confidence.

🏠 Active Property Inventory Count – Attached & Detached Homes
Total available homes in the MLS: 15,733
Inventory numbers of select towns as of: February 4, 2026
🔎 Market Overview
As we move further into February, inventory levels continue to reflect a seasonally restrained but stabilizing market. While some towns are seeing modest increases in attached inventory, detached home supply remains limited in many areas. New construction continues to play an important role in select markets, particularly in larger communities like Elgin, Bartlett, and St. Charles/Campton Hills.
Buyers are finding opportunities, but competition remains strong in towns with lower total inventory. Sellers in well-positioned homes are still benefiting from favorable conditions, especially in communities with limited detached supply.
