INVENTORY NUMBERS OF SELECT TOWNS AS OF April 29, 2026

💡 Weekly Overview

The Illinois MLS is showing 15,248 active detached and attached homes across the region — a healthy inventory level for mid-April. Of our 24 tracked communities, Elgin continues to lead with 99 active listings, followed by Schaumburg at 79 and St. Charles at 84. On the tighter side, Wayne holds just 5 listings, Winfield has 9, and Itasca sits at 10 — these are the markets where sellers still hold the advantage.

New construction activity remains steady across the northern suburbs. Bartlett leads our watch list with 15 new builds among its 39 listings (38% new construction), followed by St. Charles with 23 new homes. Geneva and South Elgin are also seeing strong builder activity with 11 and 9 new construction listings respectively.

The attached vs. detached split favors detached homes across nearly every market. Bartlett is the exception with 27 attached listings against 12 detached — reflecting the town’s active apartment-style and townhome developments. Buyers looking for single-family detached should focus on Glen Ellyn, West Chicago, and Batavia where detached homes make up the majority of inventory.

💡 Weekly Highlights

Bartlett’s attached home inventory is dominant right now — 27 of 39 listings are attached, with 15 of those being new construction. Buyers looking for brand-new townhomes and condos have excellent options in the $250K-$437K range, with several D.R. Horton builds hitting the market this week.

Elgin remains the inventory king at 99 active listings, but the detached segment is where the action is — 78 detached homes give buyers serious choosing room. Combined with 21 new construction options, Elgin is a buyer-friendly market across both existing and new home categories.

The tightest markets in our watch list are Wayne (5), Winfield (9), and Itasca (10). These communities are seeing quick turnovers — homes priced right are closing in under a week. Sellers in these markets should price aggressively from day one to capture the limited buyer pool.

New construction is pacing well across the northern suburbs. St. Charles leads with 23 new builds, followed by Elgin (21), Schaumburg (15), Bartlett (15), and Geneva (11). Builders are responding to demand with a mix of price points, from the $250K attached segment up to the $700K+ custom market.

The attached vs. detached ratio is shifting in interesting ways. Traditionally detached-heavy markets like Glen Ellyn (28 detached vs 7 attached) and West Chicago (17 detached vs 1 attached) are holding steady, while communities like Schaumburg and Hoffman Estates are seeing strong attached inventory growth — reflecting changing buyer preferences for lower-maintenance living.
