The state’s home prices have jumped 48% while housing for sale has plummeted.

Since 2019, Illinois home prices have jumped nearly 50% and available houses are down nearly 50%. Blame property taxes and zoning.

Illinois home prices have jumped 48% since 2018 while available housing inventory has plummeted across all 26 tracked metro areas, creating a housing crisis driven largely by restrictive zoning laws and the nation’s highest property taxes.
