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

Home values in Chestnut Heights-Princess Place have climbed notably in the latest rolling three-month view, with the typical home value up about 16% year over year to roughly $420,000, outpacing the broader Wilmington market’s price growth. List prices have risen more moderately, up about 5% from a year ago, suggesting sellers are not fully pricing in the gains seen in closed sales. The average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 98%, while only about 10% of homes are selling above list, pointing to more negotiation room than in some past periods.

Listing and contract activity show a mixed picture. Active listings are up nearly 18% year over year, yet homes sold in the rolling three-month window are down more than a third, and pending sales are also down sharply from last year. New listings have fallen compared with a year ago, indicating that the inventory increase is driven more by homes staying on the market longer than by a surge of new sellers.

Conditions have clearly shifted from the rapid-fire pace of earlier years to a more measured environment. Median days on market have stretched to about 51 days, dramatically higher than a year ago, and months of supply has risen to 3.5, closer to Wilmington’s 3.7 months. With a seller-leaning but less frenzied market, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these evolving trends and negotiates effectively for them.

“All I can say is " what a find " in regards to having the opportunity to meet Jeff Lesley & his team. My wife & I have purchased our fair share of homes over the years & worked with quite a few realtors. But, we must say that this home purchase was the smoothest, easiest, home purchase yet. Jeff & his team of Ashli, Hannah, & Brenna all assisted in making this the most painless process ever. Always there when we had questions, never questioned any moves that we wanted to make in negotiations, our needs were first & foremost in this process. Ashli & Jeff were with us all the way til the end. If we ever make another purchase in the area that Jeff & his team covers we will undoubtbly use their services. Actually, they are looking into a lot for us to purchase. This team comes highly recommened from The McFadden Family. PS - And the family culture that they possess doesnt stop after your settlement, they throw some very cool gatherings! Thank you again Jeff Lesley & team”

“Exceptional Realtor and Advocate We could not have asked for a better realtor to help us purchase our new home and sell our townhome. From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, attentive, and always available to support us throughout the entire process. She did an outstanding job representing us and was truly our advocate every step of the way. She listened to what was important to us, provided thoughtful guidance, and made sure our interests were always well represented. Her professionalism, knowledge, and commitment gave us tremendous confidence during what can be a very stressful process. We always felt that we had someone in our corner who genuinely cared about helping us find the right home and making the experience as smooth as possible. We are so grateful for everything she did and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.”

“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!”
