“Wow, where to begin?! My husband and I have been on a roller coaster with both selling and building. We would have pulled our hair out or chosen an appointment to be done with it all, if it was not for Jennifer. At literally every turn, Jennifer went above and beyond to make sure she was our voice with the builder! When my husband deployed, Jennifer made sure to educate me and walk me through all the steps for Power of Attorney and closing. Every recommendation from fencing, inspection, to dinner proved to be perfect matches for us! I will forever be in Jennifer's debt.”

“Terri i Parrish is no longer my Realtor....she is my friend! She "held my hand" through a difficult process for me as I am older and not as strong as I have been. She brought me coffee on the days the gas had been stopped and not restarted. She helped me move my belongings to storage! She returned every one of my frantic calls and soothed my concerns. She made sure every i was dotted and t crossed on every document. I must say that if one needs compassion in a Realtor and skills to sell, call Terri. I have one more to sell and she will be the listing agent!”

Wilmington offers its residents a vibrant blend of beautiful beaches, historic charm, and a lively arts and entertainment scene that makes every day engaging and enjoyable.
Wilmington pairs riverfront energy with easy beach days, creating a coastal city that still feels like a true community. Stroll the brick-lined Riverwalk for live music, galleries, and chef-driven restaurants, then step aboard the towering Battleship North Carolina for a dose of living history.

Outdoor lovers paddle the Intracoastal Waterway, birdwatch at Airlie Gardens, and chase sunrise surf at Wrightsville Beach or a sunset at Carolina Beach. Family-friendly parks and festivals fill the calendar, and the regional airport and port put weekend getaways and global connections within reach.
Education anchors the city: the University of North Carolina Wilmington fuels research and a steady cultural calendar, while the public school system offers strong magnet and STEM options. Housing spans restored bungalows and new builds, from the golf-course setting of Landfall to emerging communities across the river in Leland. Local life is grounded in New Hanover County services, coastal conservation, and a thriving small-business scene. Whether you’re moving for the surf, the schools, or a career pivot, Wilmington offers a balanced, year-round lifestyle.
