Real Estate Agent with Dean's Team - Keller Williams Realty Partners Chicago IL

Good Evening!

Here's our update on Chicago IL Real Estate Market Statistics, based on data compiled and reviewed Sunday Evening, November 15th. 

This past week has seen continuing stability in the Housing Market in the North and Northwest Side of Chicago Neighborhoods we serve with great frequency.  Active Listings Inventor showed little change.  Pending Sales - about the same versus last week. 

Average Sales Price is up, however, as is, unfortunately, Average Market TimeSales Volume rebounded a bit over last week.   Units Sold and Listings Expired - generally, steady! 

Absorption Rate - the theoretical time to clear existing homes-for-sale inventory, ticked up a very slight amount- it remains just over 9.6 months. 

The Percentage of Homes Selling in an Estimated Six-Month Marketing Time Frame jumped to over 51% this past week.  Earlier this year, that percentage was just over 30%!   It's been a long time since the number of homes selling during an Estimated Six-Month Market Time eclipsed 50% here in Chicago!

Here are archived annual Chicago Neighborhood Statistics, including Units Sold and Price Trends Data, for 1995 through 2008 courtesy of The Chicago Association of Realtors.

In addition, here is an Interactive Median Price Heat Map, from the Chicago Tribune Real Estate Section, covering Every Chicago Neighborhood.  View the map for links to maps for Chicago Suburbs.  It is updated as new data becomes available.
