🏠 Market Highlights

📈 What It Means

Across Cook, DuPage, and Kane Counties, supply continues to lag far behind demand.

Detached single-family homes dominate, yet attached living and new-build options are crucial for buyers navigating today’s affordability limits.

For sellers, minimal competition keeps market conditions favorable—especially when pricing aligns with local trends.
