“I’m grateful for Liz’s support throughout the purchase of my new home! I first connected with her on Instagram about a year ago, before I knew exactly when I would be ready to buy. She was patient and supportive of my timeline, stayed in touch, and worked with me from those initial conversations all the way through closing. Her responsiveness, calm demeanor, and encouragement meant a lot during a process that could feel overwhelming. I especially appreciated her willingness to step in, communicate with the builder, and help work through questions and concerns along the way. She has continued to be an excellent resource after closing, and I truly appreciate her ongoing support. Her check-ins helped me feel more at ease during a major life transition. Thank you, Liz, for the time, care, and effort you put into helping me make my new home a reality!”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Home values in Chestnut Heights-Princess Place have eased in this rolling three-month view, with the typical home value down about 8 percent from a year ago and median list prices also slipping a few percent year over year. Compared with the wider Wilmington area, where prices are still edging higher annually, this neighborhood is seeing a more noticeable cooling in pricing.
Listing and contract activity has shifted alongside those price changes. Homes sold have dropped more than 60 percent from a year ago, and new listings are down by roughly a quarter, signaling slower overall turnover. Despite that slowdown, active listings are up more than 30 percent year over year, so choices for buyers have expanded.
Days on market have stretched sharply, with the median now about 134 days compared with just a couple of weeks a year ago, and months of supply has climbed from under 2 months to around 7 to 8 months, pointing to a looser, more buyer-friendly environment. Even so, roughly one in five sales still close above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio sits near 96 percent, showing sellers who price well can still achieve solid results. Whether buyers want to navigate the growing inventory or sellers need to position a home effectively, Agent Pronto can connect them with a local expert agent to guide each step.

“After 2 previous agents, contracts with multiple developers, many years tied up with those contracts and nothing to show for it, we contracted with Jeff Lesley. He worked with the developer and negotiated nonrefundable funds when they wanted multiple extensions. Those funds increased as they needed more time. Finally, we closed last week. Thank you Jeff for your persistence and professionalism.”
“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.”
“Andrew Harris has been the most helpful, professional person we dealt with so far. He goes above and beyond to insure his clients have the information and services they need. I highly recommend Andrew (A )”
“Chris is a truly exceptional sales professional as well as an honest and reliable realtor. I have recommended him to neighbors . I appreciated his above and beyond service as much as his low stress and friendly manner .”
“From start to finish, Pam was friendly, professional, great communicator, patient, and knowledgeable of the complete process. Pam listened to our needs and wants and strived to help us find a new home that was a perfect new start.”
“Neil is great! He is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I will definitely refer him to anyone that asks if I know a local agent.”
“Kelly Bossman was wonderful to work with. She made herself available for any and all questions and very supportive even when I was 'clueless' about the whole process. Very thankful to have had her at my side!”
“Bea Desmond was exceptional! Extremely knowledgeable about the market, always responsive to the many questions we had & always the utmost professional! We could not have asked for a better agent.”
“Oscar was great to deal. I will use him to buy my next 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!”
“Dave Robertson was very patient and got the job done! He was very positive and professional throughout this experience!”
