Elk Grove appears to be doing better during this slow period.  Percentage wise there are more listings under contract and closed for the past 3 months than in many of the other Northwest Suburbs.  Average market times are also a bit lower, just over 150 days for available listings.  Still clearly a buyer’s market though.
