Yes — and the data proves it.
Even with more listings hitting the market, Wheaton homeowners are still seeing strong offers, short days on market, and 98–100% of list price when priced correctly.
📊 Inventory vs. Demand
Wheaton currently sits at 1.8 months of housing supply, far below the 4–6 months that would signal a balanced market.
That means demand still outweighs supply — especially for homes under $600,000 in move-in-ready condition.
Buyers are drawn to Wheaton’s walkable downtown, top-rated schools, and neighborhood charm — features they can’t find in newer suburbs.
💵 Why Pricing & Presentation Matter
Many homeowners worry they’ve “missed their window” to sell high. But homes that are clean, decluttered, and properly staged are still commanding full price.
Even light prep — fresh paint, clean flooring, or bright lighting — makes a measurable difference.

🕒 Timing Is Everything
Listing before the spring rush gives sellers the upper hand.
Early 2025 buyers are serious — relocations, move-ups, and families targeting summer closings.
Homes listed now face less competition, more motivated buyers, and often close faster.
