“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”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Lincoln Forest is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge placing it in seller’s market territory. Inventory is especially tight, as months of supply sits at just 0.9 compared with 3.7 months across Wilmington, indicating far fewer options per buyer in this neighborhood.
Looking at this rolling three-month view, prices show a complex pattern. The typical home value is about $407,000 and has surged more than 70% year over year, even as the median list price is down sharply from a year ago, suggesting some sellers are pricing more cautiously despite strong closed-sale values.
Activity trends highlight how quickly desirable homes can move. Homes are taking longer to sell than a year ago with the median days on market jumping, yet nearly 77% still go off the market within two weeks and the number of homes sold is up about 11% year over year, so buyers and sellers can both benefit from using Agent Pronto to find an agent who understands these conditions.

“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.”
“We truly had the best experience working with Liz! She was responsive, knowledgeable, and always went above and beyond for us. She made buying our home so easy and stress-free, and we always felt like she had our best interests at heart. She communicated every step of the way with us, checking in with any update no matter how big or small. We couldn’t recommend her more!”
“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!”
