Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).

Homes in The Highlands are moving at a measured but active pace in this rolling three-month view, with a median of 30 days on market, up slightly from a year ago. More than half of recent listings went off the market within two weeks, showing that well-priced homes can still attract quick offers.

Prices have eased from recent peaks, yet the typical home value is still up compared with last year. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has slipped to just over a quarter of sales. Buyers are seeing a bit more room to negotiate.

Supply has opened up noticeably, with active listings up sharply year over year and months of supply rising to 1.9, though The Highlands is still tighter than Wilmington overall. Sales activity is stronger than a year ago, with homes sold and new listings both climbing at a brisk pace. Even with this increase in options, the area remains a seller’s market, supported by an average sale-to-list ratio near 98 percent. In this shifting but still competitive environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with an experienced local agent who understands these trends.

“Octavia had an excellent track record in Delaware in representing both the seller and buyer, which was very important to me during my selection process. In my initial discussions, she shared with me her comprehensive knowledge of real estate in general, and more specifically, the Delaware market. I had total confidence in her abilities, and she exceeded my expectations by having a bona fide offer in less than two weeks of listing the property. We closed 30 days later. I highly recommend Octavia to anyone who is buying or selling property in Delaware. She is a consummate professional with an impressive track record.”

“This was a useful service to us, as we didn't know any realtors in the area or which agency to use. Agent Pronto connected us with a fantastic realtor, and we were able to sell our home quickly. Highly recommend both Agent Pronto and Cathy Verne.”

“With this being my first home buying experience, I had no idea what to expect. Dave Johnson set the standard, if I unfortunately have to use someone else in the future. He made everything very understandable, gave great tips, insight, and clearly explained every step of the process so nothing was lost in translation, and I am extremely satisfied with my experience working with him, and with my purchase several months into homeownership. It's almost like he was born for it.”

“Jetta was recommended to me by Octavia and I completely see why she came recommended. She took care of my family and I the entire time even through emergency situations we had to deal with outside of the home purchase. Jetta was reliable, communicative and highly supportive every step of the way. She ensured that we had every answer to question we had. Additionally, Jetta kept our interest as a priority and resolved every issue ethically and efficiently.”

“Jessy was and still is an amazing realator. She was extremely organized, great at communicating often and checking it and always honest and open with me. She strived to check every aspect of each home that was important to me to be sure I found the perfect house for me. She continues to support me and communicate with me and I'm so happy to have had a friend recommend her to me. Jessy is an absolute delight to work with any anyone would be lucky to have her help in finding and purchasing their first home.”

“Chris Pataki was our agent and when I tell you that there is no one better, believe me. There isn't. Chris was responsive, caring, concerned, and a guiding force through our home buying process. He found us a beautiful home that appraised over the asking price and in a very competitive market. Chris is knowledgeable and goes beyond expectations making sure that our closing was smooth and our home ready for move-in. If you are looking for a realtor who just doesn't sell you a home but helps you acclimate to a location, he is your guy. Coming from the Penn State area, he was able to explain neighborhoods and home values. He is a class act and we will always consider him more than just our realtor but a new friend!”
