The most reliable price for a Streeterville condo comes from closed sales in your own building, then from similar buildings nearby. In the 30 days ending September 28, 2026, Streeterville led Near North with 72 closings and 272 active listings, and the median sales price was $585,000, the highest of the three neighborhoods, according to Anne Rossley's Near North condo update. The same data shows asking prices running ahead of what condos actually sold for. In ZIP code 60611, where Streeterville homes for sale range widely by building, comparables decide everything.
Reading Streeterville's Market
How fast are Streeterville condos selling?
Streeterville was the slowest of the three Near North neighborhoods, at a median of 41.5 days on market, and the median active listing had been on the market for 97 days. That is an inventory-heavy market, with 272 active listings against 72 closings. In a market like this, buyers compare units carefully, so a unit priced to the closed evidence stands out from those still waiting.
Why do asking prices run ahead of sale prices?
Across Near North, the median active listing asked $436 per square foot against $393 for closed sales, about 11% higher. Sixty percent of closings sold below their last list price, by a median of 4.2%. For a seller, the lesson is simple: compare your unit with closed sales, not with active listings, because active prices describe hopes and closed prices describe outcomes.
Finding Comparable Sales in Your Building
How do I find comps in my own building?
Start with the same building, the same line or a similar floor, then widen to buildings of similar age and amenities. The Streeterville condos for sale page shows current competition, the Streeterville condo and co-op buildings page lists building types, and the Streeterville home values page offers a baseline. Anne Rossley, a 39-year veteran and Managing Broker at Baird & Warner Gold Coast, adjusts each comparable for floor, view, finish level and parking.
Which adjustments matter most?
Floor height, view, exposure, renovation level and parking each move value, and so does the monthly assessment. In July 2026, condos with assessments under $0.50 per square foot per month sold in 7 days at 103.3% of list, while those over $1.00 took 32 days, according to Anne Rossley's July condo update. That finding spans nine downtown and lakefront areas, but it explains why two similar units in different buildings can price differently.
Unit Size and Style
Do studios, lofts and larger units behave differently?
Yes. Across Near North, one-bedrooms were the most liquid, selling in a median of 19 days at full list, while studios and units with three or more bedrooms gave buyers more room to negotiate. Compare Streeterville studios, condo lofts and condo-style listings separately, because each has its own buyer pool and its own pricing logic.
What about vintage buildings?
Vintage-style properties in Streeterville can carry premiums for character and location, yet older buildings face closer scrutiny of reserves and façade work. Check the building's budget and meeting minutes before you compare prices with newer towers, since lenders review the same documents that buyers do.
Price Bands and Entry-Level Competition
How do the lower price bands look?
Lower price bands set the baseline for smaller units. The homes under $500,000, homes under $400,000 and homes under $300,000 pages show what buyers compare against a smaller unit. Across Near North, the $500,000 to $750,000 range was the strongest, with 58% of units at or above list. A seller below that range has fewer chances to recover from a wrong price.
Where can I get a valuation I can trust?
Anne Rossley's guide to how much a Chicago condo is worth explains the method in more detail. With 540+ transactions and about $15M in average annual sales, plus 57 Google 5-star reviews, she brings a track record to each building-by-building analysis, and any seller can verify both numbers before the first conversation.
The Bottom Line on Streeterville Comps
Comparable sales are the whole game in Streeterville. With asking prices running about 11% per square foot above closed sales, a seller who prices from active listings starts behind. Build your number from closed sales in your building, adjust for floor, view and assessment, and you will arrive at a price buyers can verify.
