Chicago home values increased 3.7 percent in October from a year earlier, with the typical home selling for $239,000. Sales were essentially flat, exhibiting a 0.4 percent increase.<\/span><\/p>\n

While prices and sales edged up compared to the same time last year, both are down from September, reflecting a normal cooling cycle as homebuyers and sellers become less active heading into the holidays.<\/span><\/p>\n

The city\u2019s 4.8-month supply of properties for sale is Chicago\u2019s highest since February, but remains below the six months of inventory that signals a balanced market. Inventory was up 2.9% and a typical Chicago home sold in 26 days.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hot Neighborhoods<\/span><\/h2>\n

Three South Side neighborhoods were among the four that experienced price growth of more than 40 percent. A typical home in Kenwood sold for $200,000, a 43 percent increase over last year, while South Shore rose to $56,450, a 46 percent increase. Pullman was the largest gainer, up 116 percent to $94,900, though among only 15 transactions. <\/span><\/p>\n

The priciest neighborhood in the city was Bucktown, with a median sale price of $542,500, followed by Lincoln Park at $492,250. <\/span><\/p>\n

Old Town was the biggest lagger, with prices dropping 28 percent from last year and sales down 8 percent. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"ChiOctSales<\/a><\/p>\n

In Bridgeport, prices rose 27 percent, to $331,100. The increase was attributable largely to the third phase of Riverbend Estates, which had a number of<\/span> home<\/span><\/a> sales<\/span><\/a> recently above $400,000, along with several other one-off new construction sales at similar price points. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBy and large, these are conversions of formerly industrial land. As homebuilders see success, they\u2019ll likely to continue on in southern Bridgeport, which has plenty of shuttered factories and the like, ripe for development,\u201d Redfin real estate agent <\/span>Alex Haried<\/span><\/a> said. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPricewise, builders are finding that this is what the market will bear. Above $400,000 for a good-quality, single-family home in Chicago might be the new entry-level, even in a traditionally less-expensive neighborhood,\u201d Haried said.<\/span><\/p>\n
