WILMINGTON, NC – After a very active August, the local luxury market for homes for sale in Wilmington NC slowed considerably in September.  Six homes with sales prices in excess of $1 million sold in New Hanover, Brunswick and Pender Counties.  The dollar volume totaled $8.5 million.

In August, there were 15 sales totaling $28,244,775.

“It’s typical to see that type of drop,” says Kathleen Baylies, Just For Buyers’ Realty’s Broker in Charge.  “Most homes that closed in September went under contract in August.  August is a month when potential buyers are distracted by other things, such as summer vacations and preparing to get the kids back to school.”

The most expensive new listing to come on the market in September was 520 Beach Road North on Figure Eight Island.  Listed for $4,290,000, the home is more than 4200 sq. ft. and sits on a large 2.4 acre ocean front lot.  The four bedroom / five bath home is comprised of a main house and a guest wing, each with its own kitchen and living areas.  Features include a wet bar, elevator, and multiple ocean-facing decks providing sweeping water views.

There are currently 241 homes on the market with asking prices at or above $1 million in New Hanover, Brunswick and Pender counties.  At the current rate of sales, there is a 3.3 year supply of luxury properties available, which puts buyers in a very good position when negotiating the purchase of a high end home.
