Wilmington Historic District real estate Market Report.

Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Wilmington Historic District real estate market, updated for April 2026. *

Homes in the Wilmington Historic District are taking about 35 days to go under contract, which is slightly slower than the previous month but far quicker than a year ago. This quickened pace over the past year points to strong buyer interest, even as the latest month shows a modest step back in speed.

Typical home values in the Historic District are around $615,000. That is higher than the broader city of Wilmington, where typical values are closer to $468,250. List prices have moved up recently, with the median list price at about $549,000 and projected to rise to roughly $597,250 next month.

Supply is still limited, with only 17 homes on the market and 13 new listings, even though inventory is up more than 21 percent from last year. Pending sales count 10, which is slightly below last year and suggests buyers may be feeling the effect of higher prices. Only about 14 percent of homes are selling above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio sits near 0.98, so sellers are getting close to what they ask without frequent bidding wars. With the area categorized as a Seller's Market and projected values holding steady, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding the right local agent to guide their next move.

“We had a wonderful experience working with Jeff. From the beginning his approach was thoughtful and well-planned. The marketing was outstanding with beautiful photography, great drone shots, and a listing description that truly captured our home. Jeff was strategic in how he positioned and marketed everything, set clear expectations, and kept us informed throughout the process. He was always responsive and brought a level of knowledge and confidence that made the experience feel smooth and extremely well-managed especially with my Type A personality! We went under contract within just a few days, received multiple offers, and sold for over asking, which we were so happy with. His assistants Ashli, Hannah, and Brenna were also fantastic to work with and made everything that much easier along the way. We would absolutely recommend Jeff to anyone looking to sell or buy!”

“Chris EXCEEDED our expectations. We have not bought a home in over 20 years and his knowledge, professionalism and above and beyond availability to answer every single question we had was impressive. He knew a house was out there for us and he found it! From the start of house hunting to closing, he was constantly in contact (even once during a Christmas vacation!). Moving from 14 hours away, he was our eyes and ears, and we cannot thank him enough for his true honesty. We will definitely use Chris again (but we hope to never sell!) Thank you does not even seem like enough, and we are so grateful for your expertise Chris!”

“Working with Liz was an amazing experience during the purchase of our first home! Liz was pivotal in us figuring out our ideal home style and what was around that fit our needs. Once we found THE home for us Liz worked even harder to get us the best price and all of the best inspectors and lawyers to complete the process. We couldn't imagine going this process again with anyone but Liz and will be referencing her to all of our friends!”

“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!”
