ACTIVE Property Inventory Count – Attached and Detached Homes

Total available homes in the MLS: 17,793 (excluding private network homes)

Inventory numbers of select towns as of October 15, 2025

💬 What This Means

Inventory remains stable across most suburbs, with detached homes continuing to dominate active supply. Elgin once again leads the region in total listings and new construction, while Bartlett and Batavia maintain a strong new-build presence. On the tighter side, Medinah, Winfield, and Itasca show minimal inventory, giving sellers an edge. Buyers should expect steady competition through mid-fall, particularly for move-in-ready detached homes in desirable school districts.

Mid Week Real Estate Market Update – September 24, 2025

🏡 The Goddard Report

ACTIVE Property Inventory Count – Attached and Detached Homes

Total available homes in the MLS: 16,754 (excluding private network homes)

Inventory numbers of select towns AS OF September 24, 2025

💬 What This Means

The local housing market continues to see solid new construction activity in towns such as Bartlett, Elgin, and St. Charles/Campton Hills. Meanwhile, communities like Medinah, Itasca, and Wood Dale remain extremely limited in supply, creating competitive conditions for buyers.

For buyers, this means being prepared to act quickly, particularly in lower-inventory suburbs. Exploring areas with higher new construction counts can also expand options and reduce bidding pressure.

For sellers, limited supply in certain markets provides strong leverage — especially in detached homes. Towns like Schaumburg and Streamwood are seeing elevated activity across both detached and attached homes, offering good opportunities for sellers ready to list.

📍 Active Listings by Town

(Total Homes | Detached | Attached | New Construction)

🔎 Market Highlights

📌 Elgin remains the regional leader with 150 homes on the market, including 35 new construction properties.

📌 Bartlett continues to show strong development with 27 new construction homes, providing buyers more move-in-ready choices.

📌 Schaumburg dominates the attached home segment, with 70 condos and townhomes available, the highest in the area.

📌 St. Charles/Campton Hills remains a balanced market, offering 85 total homes with 15 new construction options.

📌 Medinah continues to be one of the leanest markets with only 5 total homes, all detached.

Mid Week Real Estate Market Update – September 10, 2025

🏡 The Goddard Report

ACTIVE Property Inventory Count – Attached and Detached Homes

Total available homes in the MLS: 16,428 (excluding private network homes)

Inventory numbers of select towns AS OF September 10, 2025

💬 What This Means

The Chicagoland housing market continues to reflect a pattern of uneven inventory. Some towns, such as Elgin, Bartlett, and St. Charles/Campton Hills, are offering plenty of options with strong new construction pipelines. Meanwhile, others — like Glendale Heights, Medinah, and West Chicago — remain very limited, creating competition for buyers.

For buyers, this means being prepared to act quickly in towns with lean inventory while also considering areas with new builds for more choices and less competition.

For sellers, the numbers highlight opportunities in both attached and detached markets. Schaumburg is especially active for condos and townhomes, while Geneva, Glen Ellyn, and Wheaton remain attractive for families searching for larger detached homes.

📍 Active Listings by Town

(Total Homes | Detached | Attached | New Construction)

🔎 Market Highlights

📌 Elgin continues to dominate the region with 144 active homes, including 32 new construction listings.

📌 Bartlett holds steady with 77 homes, of which 24 are new construction — a sign of ongoing development.

📌 Geneva and Glen Ellyn both show balanced markets with a healthy supply of detached homes and steady new construction, making them strong options for move-up buyers.

📌 Schaumburg remains the top market for attached housing with 62 condos and townhomes available, offering more affordability compared to nearby towns.

📌 Medinah stands out at the opposite end of the spectrum, with just 6 homes total, all detached, making it one of the leanest markets in the area.

Mid Week Real Estate Market Update Post Labor Day Weekend – 9/3/25

🏡 The Goddard Report

ACTIVE Property Inventory Count – Attached and Detached Homes

Total available homes in the MLS: 16,023 (excluding private network homes)

Inventory numbers of select towns AS OF September 3, 2025

💬 What This Means

The suburban housing market is showing steady but uneven inventory: some areas like Bartlett and Elgin are offering more choice thanks to new construction, while others like West Chicago and Winfield remain very limited.

For buyers, this means opportunities are best in towns with new development pipelines — like Bartlett, Elgin, South Elgin, and St. Charles. These areas give you the greatest chance to find a home without competing as heavily.

For sellers, demand remains strong. Attached homes in Schaumburg and Glendale Heights are still highly sought after, while detached homes in Geneva, Glen Ellyn, and Wheaton continue to attract families who want more space. Listing now lets you take advantage of today’s motivated buyers before fall competition begins to rise.

📍 Active Listings by Town

(Total Homes | Detached | Attached | New Construction)

🔎 Market Highlights

📌 Bartlett now has 76 active homes, the highest inventory level we’ve seen here in recent weeks. The 26 new construction homes stand out, showing continued growth and opportunity for buyers wanting move-in-ready properties.

📌 Geneva and Glen Ellyn both posted solid numbers with 51 and 46 homes respectively, balanced between detached and attached options. This balance makes these towns attractive to a wide range of buyers, from first-time homeowners to those moving up.

📌 West Chicago tightened to just 30 total homes, but nearly all of them (27) are detached — a sign of limited condo and townhome options in this market.

📌 Schaumburg continues to dominate the attached home category, with 63 condos and townhomes available. That makes it the top market for buyers prioritizing affordability and lower maintenance living.

📌 St. Charles/Campton Hills remains one of the strongest markets for larger detached homes, with 64 properties available in that category, plus 16 new construction homes.

🏡 Active Listings by Town

(Total Homes | Detached | Attached | New Construction)

🧠 Market Highlights

📌 Elgin leads the region with 154 active listings and 35 new construction homes, showing robust development activity.

📌 St. Charles/Campton Hills saw a revised total of 81 homes, making it one of the more inventory-rich towns this week.

📌 Schaumburg continues to dominate the attached home segment with 58 condos and townhomes available.

📌 Bartlett, Geneva, and South Elgin each show healthy new construction pipelines — great news for buyers seeking move-in-ready homes.

📌 West Chicago corrected to just 25 total listings — significantly tighter than originally recorded.

💬 What It Means for Buyers and Sellers

We’re still seeing tight inventory and elevated buyer demand across the western suburbs. Detached homes under $500K in family-friendly school districts remain extremely competitive.

If you’re a seller, this is your window to list with low competition and high buyer urgency. And if you’re buying, pre-approval and fast action are your best tools in this fast-moving market.
