If you're here, give yourself a pat on the back! You've taken one of the first steps to becoming Wilmington home owner.  And with hundreds of homes to choose from, there's never been a better time to buy. CNN and Money Magazine voted Wilmington NC 7th best place to buy real estate, and despite national trends our market continues to show signs of strength.

In the past several years, the Carolina Coast has become popular target for real estate investors and families relocating due to its growing economy, temperate climate, popular university, and beautiful coastline.  Fortunately, property here remains surprisingly affordable in comparison to other affluent parts of the country. In 2006, the median home price was $217,000. This is expected to increase to $297,000 by 2011.
