Winfield Real Estate Market Report: October 6 – November 5, 2026
Single-family homes sold faster, condo and townhome inventory increased, and the mix of properties sold explains much of the month-to-month price movement.
Prepared by Joe Soto | RE/MAX Suburban | The Lance Kammes Team
What is happening in the Winfield, IL housing market? Based on the supplied MLS area 190 snapshot, detached home closings increased from nine to 12 over the latest 30 days, and the median time on market dropped from 22 to 9.5 days. At the same time, only four detached homes were under contract at the snapshot date, suggesting the pipeline of near-term closings may be lighter. In the attached market, four condos and townhomes closed, while 10 new listings added more choices for buyers.
Winfield Single-Family Home Market: Month-Over-Month Comparison
Market indicator | Oct 6 – Nov 5 | Sep 6 – Oct 5 |
|---|---|---|
Closed sales | 12 | 9 |
Total closed volume | $5.91 million | $5.61 million |
Median sale price | $481,000 | $540,000 |
Average sale price | $492,394 | $623,578 |
Overall sale-to-list ratio | 99.7% | 98.3% |
Median days on market | 9.5 | 22 |
Median sold price per sq. ft. | $217 | $242 |
More detached homes closed in the latest period, and the typical sale moved through the market substantially faster. The median sale price declined by $59,000, but that does not establish that individual home values fell by the same amount. The prior period included three sales above $800,000, while the highest closing in the latest period was $669,000. The different mix of homes strongly influences the median and average.
Detached sales volume by reporting period
Six of the 12 detached closings sold above their asking prices, according to the supplied summary. The overall reported sale-to-list ratio was 99.7%, showing that individual bidding contests can coexist with negotiated sales below asking.

Three detached properties entered contract during the period. The current snapshot identifies four detached homes under contract in total, including 26W144 Houghton Lane, listed at $895,000. These are different measures: new contracts during the period versus the total contract pipeline at the snapshot date.

The two new listings at 0S424 Winfield Road and 27W312 Churchill Road were already under contract by the time of the report. That illustrates how quickly a well-positioned property can move, although the exact days shown for a new listing and its contract record may reflect different MLS timing conventions.
Detached price reductions

0N421 Winfield Scott Dr | 4 / 2.5 | $599,000 | $549,000 | 106 |
0S461 Madison St | 4 / 2.5 | $749,900 | $704,900 | 137 |
Winfield Detached Inventory: What Buyers Can Choose From
The snapshot lists 14 active detached homes, consisting of 11 publicly marketed homes and three Private Network listings, plus four under contract. The publicly marketed inventory represents roughly 0.9 months of supply when compared with the latest 12 closings over 30 days. This is a simplified pace-of-sales calculation, not a seasonally adjusted inventory forecast.

1S620 Verdun Dr (Private) | 5 bd | $1,100,000 | — |
0N127 Robbins St (Private) | 3 / 1.5 | Not listed | — |
Among the public listings, there are several options from $385,000 to $559,000, while the higher-end selection extends to $989,900. Some homes priced near or below $560,000 moved quickly, but there are exceptions. The listings at 0N421 Winfield Scott Drive, 0S415 Madison Street, and 0S461 Madison Street have all spent more than 90 days on the market. That is a reminder that limited inventory does not eliminate the need for accurate pricing.
Winfield Condo and Townhome Market: October vs. September
Market indicator | Oct 6 – Nov 5 | Sep 6 – Oct 5 |
|---|---|---|
Closed sales | 4 | 3 |
Total closed volume | $1.38 million | $1.02 million |
Median sale price | $347,500 | $340,000 |
Overall sale-to-list ratio | 98.0% | 99.1% |
Median days on market | 31 | 52 |
Median sold price per sq. ft. | $184 | $191 |
The attached market also saw faster closings compared with the previous month, with median market time declining from 52 to 31 days. But buyers negotiated below asking on all four completed sales, and the latest month added 10 new listings. That combination suggests more room for careful comparison and negotiation than in the fastest-moving detached segments.

27W327 Providence Ln | 3 / 1.5 | $295,000 | $285,000 | 96.6% | 44 |
27W194 Emerson Ct | 2 / 1.5 | $329,000 | $320,000 | 97.3% | 48 |

27W116 Redbud Ln | 3 / 3.5 | $575,000 | Under contract in 7 days |
No attached-home price reductions were reported during this 30-day period. That does not mean every listing is priced perfectly, but it is worth distinguishing from the four completed sales, all of which closed below their respective list prices.
Winfield Condo Inventory: Competition in the $260K–$302K Range
At the snapshot date, there were 11 active attached properties (10 publicly marketed and one private) and five under contract. Using the 10 publicly marketed listings and four closings over 30 days gives approximately 2.5 months of supply.
Active attached inventory by visibility
Four active two-bedroom condos in the Windermere and Ennerdale buildings are priced between $260,000 and $302,000. Buyers shopping those buildings can compare multiple similar options, placing more emphasis on condition, monthly assessments, financing, and total ownership costs. The report identifies 0N069 Windermere Road #2305 at $284,900 with 135 days on market as the longest-standing attached active listing.
What This Means for Winfield Home Sellers
Single-family sellers
With a 9.5-day median market time for recent closings, a well-presented home can still attract attention quickly. Pricing against current competition matters, particularly when nearby listings have been available for months.
Condo and townhome sellers
Compare directly against similar units, especially in buildings with multiple listings. Buyers will look closely at association fees, reserves, updates, parking, and the true monthly cost of ownership.
What This Means for Winfield Home Buyers
For detached homes, prepare financing and review comparable sales before touring so you can move quickly if a well-priced property appears. But don't assume every home requires an over-asking offer. The recent sales show both above-list and below-list outcomes.
For condos and townhomes, use the expanded selection to compare layout, condition, HOA documents, and financing eligibility. Properties with longer market times may create opportunities for negotiation, depending on seller motivation and the home's condition.
Why Hyper-Local Winfield Data Matters
Winfield is a distinct market within DuPage County. Buyers often evaluate access to the Winfield Metra station, Northwestern Medicine Central DuPage Hospital, nearby parks, and connections to Wheaton, West Chicago, and surrounding communities. Those considerations can affect which homes attract interest, but pricing still needs to be based on truly comparable properties.
Regional housing headlines can be useful background, but they cannot tell you what a specific Winfield home is worth. For that, I look at recent local closings, active competition, property condition, location, and the timing of your move.
