    Seasonal averages from the last 24 months of Antioch, IL sales. Individual results vary with price, condition, and how the broader market moves. A local agent can pinpoint the right timing for your home.

    What These Numbers Mean for Antioch Buyers and Sellers

    The Housing Market Trends module above frames a market in Antioch where competitive pressure sits with sellers, though the picture carries nuance worth reading closely. With a median sale price of $376,811 and prices moving -3.4% year over year, the 101.09% sale-to-list ratio tells buyers that homes are generally closing near or slightly above what sellers ask. That leverage is reinforced by the 56.5% share of homes selling above list and the 65.1% share leaving the market within two weeks, both signals that well-priced properties attract fast, firm interest.

    At the same time, 2.9 months of supply and a median 44 days on market point to a market that is active but not frantic, and only 16.5% of listings have taken a price cut. For a buyer, this combination means competing seriously on the most desirable homes in zip code 60002 while keeping room to negotiate on listings that linger past the median timeline. For a seller, the data argues for pricing at or just under recent comparable sales rather than reaching, since accurate pricing is what produces the above-list outcomes the numbers reward.

    With 60 active listings against 77 pending sales and 83 new listings each month, absorption remains steady. Choosing the right representation matters in a market this balanced. Antioch has 752 licensed agents, and the gap between an average agent and a verified performer often decides whether you capture that above-list premium or leave money on the table.

    What Antioch Home Prices Mean for You

    What this shift means: Prices moved -3.4% year over year while the market absorbed a 0 days change in market time and a sale-to-list shift of +0.21%. For sellers, that means values have held or climbed even as homes take a bit longer to close, so patience paired with sharp pricing pays off. For buyers, the longer timeline creates openings to negotiate on properties that sit, even in a market still favoring the sell side.

    What to Look for in a Antioch Realtor

    Choosing an agent on name recognition alone overlooks what actually moves a transaction: verified results, negotiation discipline, and consistency across market cycles. In Antioch, EffectiveAgents has analyzed 179 transactions to rank 31 agents out of 752 licensed locally. The top-ranked team, Jim Starwalt & The Star Home Team at Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Star Homes, has closed 3,874 transactions and $969.3M in all-time sales volume. That depth matters in a market where 56.5% of homes close above asking; an agent who understands how to position a listing and structure an offer directly affects your final number across zip code 60002 and the surrounding Antioch area. Negotiation skill is measurable here, where the 101.09% sale-to-list ratio leaves little margin for guesswork. Look closely at review patterns as well: 470 reviews accumulated over years signals a track record clients returned to endorse, which is a more reliable indicator than a handful of recent five-star ratings. Consistency, verified volume, and durable client feedback together separate a genuine performer from a familiar name.

    How We Rank Antioch Real Estate Agents

    Our rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data, not advertising spend. For every agent we analyze more than fifteen performance signals, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results (how far above or below list price an agent's clients actually close), price-point fit, and verified reviews. The agents shown first are those whose verified results put them at the top of the Antioch market today.

    Agents cannot pay for placement in these rankings. The underlying data refreshes as new closed transactions are reported, so rankings shift with real market performance. Learn how we rank agents.

    How were these Antioch real estate agents ranked?

    Rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data. We analyze more than fifteen performance signals for every agent, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results, price-point fit, and verified reviews. Agents cannot pay for placement.

    How many real estate agents are in Antioch?

    Our data covers 752 real estate agents serving the Antioch area. The count represents agents with transaction activity recorded in our Antioch market data, not simply everyone holding a license.

    What does the median sale price in Antioch mean for sellers?

    Antioch's median sale price is $376,811 as of July 2026. Half of recent sales closed above that figure and half below. It is a useful baseline for understanding the market, but an experienced local agent will price your home against comparable recent sales in your neighborhood, not the citywide median.

    How long does it take to sell a house in Antioch?

    The median home in Antioch sells in 44 days, though the market has seen a 0 days change in typical time on market year over year. Actual timelines depend on pricing accuracy, condition, and season. Homes priced in line with recent comparable sales tend to move fastest, and 65.1% of Antioch listings leave the market within two weeks. Overpricing is the most common reason a home lingers, since only 16.5% of listings take a price cut. A data-informed pricing strategy and strong initial marketing are the biggest levers on your timeline.

    Does it cost anything to use EffectiveAgents?

    No. EffectiveAgents is free for home buyers and sellers, with no obligation to work with any agent we match you with.

    Do agents pay to be ranked or featured?

    No. Agents cannot pay for placement anywhere in these rankings. Positions are earned from verified transaction performance only.

    What commission do Antioch realtors charge?

    Commissions are negotiable and vary by agent, service level, and transaction. There is no set rate, and recent industry changes have made commission structures more flexible than ever. Discuss the structure directly with your agent before signing a listing or buyer agreement.

    Should I use a local Antioch agent or a national brand?

    The individual agent matters more than the brand on the sign. Offices within the same national franchise vary widely in performance, and the agent you hire, not the logo, prices your home, negotiates your contract, and manages your closing. A strong local agent brings firsthand knowledge of Antioch neighborhoods, pricing patterns, and buyer activity. Compare agents on verified local results such as recent sales, days on market, and negotiation outcomes rather than name recognition.

    What questions should I ask a Antioch realtor before hiring them?

    Ask how many homes they have closed in Antioch in the past year, what their average sale-to-list ratio is, and how much of their business is in your neighborhood and price range. Ask how they will market your home or find you listings, and how often they will communicate. Strong agents answer with specifics. Verified transaction data is the fastest way to confirm what you hear.
