 Across the board, the number of homes sold in July this year reached a 10-year high, at 754 single-family units compared to 650 in July 2014, according to MLS data from the Wilmington Regional Association of Realtors.

“This is a very strong, healthy market that looks like it’s being built on a solid foundation,” said Sherri Pickard, WRAR president, while discussing the MLS numbers WRAR released Monday.

Along with an ongoing increase in demand for homes in the Wilmington area has come additional benefits for sellers, Realtors said.
