Spring Into A New Home

The first quarter of 2009 is now known as the beginning of the real estate rebound in Wilmington.  Pending home sales index is up 44 percent over  December 31, 2008.  Seller received 95.5% of asking price in 2008, compared to 93.7% for 1st quarter 2009.  1st Quarter 2009 showed a decrease of 22.7% of homes sold from fourth quarter 2008.

Our strong supply of inventory makes this a great time to purchase real estate.  Our median sales price for 1st quarter 2009 is down 7.6 from 2008 and shows a 7.2% increase over 2005.

2009 will be a good market for the Wilmington area with inventory of homes available and interest rates low, this is a great time to buy.
