The Burr Ridge market in brief
Uneven. The middle of the market in Burr Ridge is lively, while homes above $800,000 have slowed.
- Quick in the middle: Between $400,000 and $800,000, homes are selling about twice as fast as last year.
- Slower at the top: Above $800,000, half of homes now take about six weeks to sell.
- Few homes under $400,000: Too few homes sell here under $400,000 to read a trend.
Burr Ridge homes: Under $400,000
Too few sales to call. Only about 14 homes sold in this range from January through October, which is too few to read a trend.
Burr Ridge homes: $400,000 – $800,000
Sellers have a slight edge. Half of homes in this range went under contract within 31 days of being listed this year, compared with 58 days last year. New listings from January through October: 84 this year, 58 in the same months last year.
If you’re buying: Balanced. There are more homes to choose from than last year, and they are selling faster, with half going within about a month.
If you’re selling: Good time to sell. Homes are selling about twice as fast as last year. Price it well and the first buyers will notice.

Buyers have a slight edge. Half of homes in this range went under contract within 46 days of being listed this year, compared with 23 days last year. New listings from January through October: 177 this year, 166 in the same months last year.
If you’re buying: Good time to buy. Half of homes take about six weeks to sell, twice as long as last year, so you have time and room to negotiate.
If you’re selling: Pricing matters here. The time to sell has doubled, so a sharp price matters here.
How fast homes sell: In the middle, half of homes sell in about a month. Above $800,000 it takes about six weeks, twice as long as last year.
New homes coming on the market: There are more new homes in the middle range than last year, and a few more above $800,000.
