Inventory sits at 3.9 months of supply — balanced by the 3-to-6-month balanced benchmark, and 11% of listed homes are already under contract. Prices are up 9.8% versus the prior year and sellers are still collecting 84.6% of asking. Taken together, the data points to a broadly balanced market where preparation decides who wins.

What It Means

Who has leverage right now

BUYER'S SELLER'S 49
Momentum Score
Buyer leverage51
Seller leverage49

Leverage scores are derived from the Momentum Score (supply, demand, speed, pricing power, and trend). Right now the data favors neither side decisively.

Momentum Outlook
  • Prices — pressure remains upward while supply stays this thin.
  • Inventory — tightening over the tracked window; watch whether that holds through the season.
  • Negotiating power — buyers gain ground as 11% of inventory sits under contract.
  • Mortgage sensitivity — at 5.2× income, this market is highly sensitive to rate moves; rate relief tends to show up in demand here quickly.

Plain Answers

The questions people actually ask

Should I buy a house in Astor right now?

The data says conditions currently favor neither side decisively in Astor — the Momentum Score reads 49/100 with 3.9 months of supply. For buyers that means preparation over hesitation: well-priced homes still move fast, but there is more room to negotiate than a year ago. The right timing always depends on your rate, your equity, and how long you plan to stay — not just the market.

Is Astor becoming more affordable?

No — the median sale price in Astor is $235,500, up 9.8% versus the prior year, while sellers still capture 84.6% of asking price. Rising prices mean waiting has a cost; affordability hinges mostly on your rate.

Where are prices falling fastest in Astor?

Among tracked communities with enough sales to measure, the sharpest 1-year median declines are Astor Forest Campsites (24%); ASTOR FOREST CAMPSITES UNREC (24%). Note that community-level medians move on small sale counts — a few high- or low-end closings can swing them — so treat these as leads for a comp analysis, not verdicts.

Which Astor neighborhoods are most competitive?

Measured by speed of sale, the fastest-moving tracked communities right now are Astor Forest Campsites (26 days); ASTOR FOREST CAMPSITES UNREC (26 days) — homes there go under contract well ahead of the market-wide pace of 53 days.

How does Astor compare to the rest of Lake County?

Astor's median of $235,500 runs 36% below the county-wide median of $370,000, and homes here take 53 days to go under contract versus 53 county-wide.
