If you tried without success to sell your home over the past several years, would you consider an offer on your home today? Our real estate market changes every year. These changes influence whether the market favors buyers or sellers, and the impact on the value of your home. The current market strongly favors sellers. Between 2021 and 2022, the median market value of a home in the Chicagoland area increased by an average of 9 percent. That was in one year alone. You may now be able to get the price that you were looking for.
