Why Summer Is a Smart Time to Buy on Chicago’s North Shore

If you’ve been waiting for the right time to purchase a home in Glencoe, Winnetka, Highland Park, Deerfield, Northbrook, Lake Forest, Wilmette, Evanston, Glenview, Riverwoods, Bannockburn, and other North Shore communities, summer might be your season. From an increase in listings to the convenience of good weather, there are plenty of reasons why summer is ideal for homebuyers.

1. More Homes on the Market
Summer typically brings more inventory to the real estate market. More listings mean more options to find the home that fits your needs, whether you’re looking for a family home near top-rated schools or a quiet retreat. Browse current North Shore listings.

2. Favorable Weather for House Hunting
Pleasant weather makes touring homes more enjoyable and allows you to evaluate outdoor spaces like patios, gardens, and curb appeal features.

3. Easier Scheduling
Families often have more flexibility during summer break, making it easier to plan house tours, inspections, and the moving process.

4. Settle Before the School Year
Buying in summer gives families time to move and settle into their new home before the school year starts—especially important in education-focused communities across the North Shore.
