New Wilmington DE Real Estate Market Stats - December 2015
2016 is already being heralded as a breakout year for homebuyers in New Castle County. Whether or not it's your first time buying a home, current real estate market conditions—like low mortgage rates and increasingly high rents—are contributing to this year being an optimal time to make that move and become a homeowner in the Wilmington area.
It's also shaping up to be an excellent year for current homeowners! In fact, the lower number of homes currently for sale will give new Wilmington DE home sellers the chance to give their property more attention in a market with high demand.
Of course, market conditions will vary by location, but according to the latest real estate market statistics, here's what we have been seeing in New Castle County:
December saw an increase in both the median sales price, coming in at $215,000 and a 7.5% change over December 2014, and average sales price, coming in at $234,000 and a change of 1.3% from the previous year. The number of closed sales also rose to 441, up 5.3% from the year prior.
However, as mentioned above, buyers in the market will be met with fewer choices as inventory trends lower. There were 2,142 active single-family homes for sale in December in New Castle County, a volume nearly 5 percent lower than the year prior.
