Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Wrightville Sound real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Wrightville Sound currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge at 27 indicating clear seller-side strength. Low supply at just 16 active listings and 25 median days on market helps keep conditions tight for buyers.
Prices are a major factor, with a typical home value around $1,200,000 and a median list price closer to $1,420,000, far above Wilmington’s typical value of $442,500. Strong year-over-year appreciation of 106.9% and a modest 1.05% month-over-month increase show that values have risen quickly and are still edging upward.
Activity has also picked up, as inventory climbed 60% month over month and new listings rose 20% from last year, while pending sales are up 50%. Looking ahead to March 2026, projections show typical values near $1,206,250 and median list prices approaching $1,771,250 with inventory around 19, so both buyers and sellers can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands these shifts and can guide their next move.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.

“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!”

“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.”
“Chris Roper was absolutely outstanding and exceeded all of my expectations. As a first-time homeowner, I was unfamiliar with many aspects of the home-buying process, but Chris went above and beyond to guide me every step of the way. He took the time to explain everything clearly, showed incredible patience, and made the entire experience feel manageable and stress-free. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking to purchase a home. He is kind, knowledgeable, and truly exceptional at what he does.”

“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!”
