This market will resolve according to the median home value for all property types in Chicago on May 31, 2026. If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher range bracket. The resolution source will be official data from the Parcl Labs Sales Price Index for Chicago, IL (Parcl_ID: 2899845). The settlement price will be calculated by multiplying the published price index value (price per square foot) by 1500 square feet, which is the median home size in Chicago. Parcl is set to publish this data on May 31, 2026. If no data for May 31 is released by June 10, 2026, 11:59PM ET, this market will resolve according to the most recently published data. (see: https://app.parcllabs.com/prediction-market-resolutions/38)Recent Zillow Home Value Index data for Chicago, showing typical home values at $324,183 as of late April 2026 with 3.1% year-over-year growth, anchors trader sentiment for the May 31 resolution. Persistent low inventory and resilient buyer demand amid mortgage rates holding near 6% have supported modest price appreciation, yet the trajectory remains well below the 344k threshold through the final two weeks. This environment reinforces the market-implied odds favoring outcomes under 344k while limiting upside scenarios, consistent with seasonal patterns and the latest regional forecasts projecting continued but contained gains through spring.
