To address this concern, Benet hired Housing Trends LLC to perform a housing market analysis to provide the Plan Commission, Village Trustees, and the community with recent market data to make an informed decision.

Specifically in Lisle, the study analyzed the homes adjacent to Benedictine University’s stadium in Arbor Trails. Every home that sold appreciated, and based on the 2024 assessed value, properties have increased by 37% to 55% since the initial sale. Like the adjacent subdivision to Benet, every home in Arbor Trails was built after the stadium was constructed.

The study concluded that proximity to a high school stadium in the region did not negatively affect recent home sales. The 7.6% annualized appreciation of the homes included in the study was higher than the average price appreciation in DuPage County.
