Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Lincoln Forest currently leans toward sellers, with a seller’s market gauge despite conditions that look more balanced than in the past. Months of supply has climbed sharply to about 4.6 months in this rolling three-month window, up dramatically from a year ago and slightly under Wilmington overall at 4.8 months, signaling more options for buyers than in recent years.
Prices show a mixed picture, with the typical home value around $410,000, up modestly year over year but down compared with early summer. At the same time, the median list price has fallen nearly 19 percent from a year ago, suggesting sellers are pricing more cautiously to meet buyers where they are.
Activity has cooled notably, as homes sold are down more than a third year over year and pending sales have also declined. Even with fewer deals closing, half or more of homes still go off the market within two weeks and the median time to sell sits at about 24 days, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent who knows how to navigate this kind of shifting market.
Lincoln Forest offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with leafy streets, ample green space, and convenient access to shops, dining, and parks.

She doesn’t just help you buy or sell a house — she advocates for you every step of the way and makes you feel like you have someone in your corner.
