The Hot Streak Continues

The number of homes sold in Brunswick County skyrocketed in April, and the average days on the market reached a record low.

Brunswick County’s residential real estate market continued its record-breaking numbers in April, with substantial jumps in both units sold and new listings compared to last year.

Additionally, more than half of the homes sold were at or above their listing price, and the average number of days on the market hit an all-time low of just 50 days.

“Our market’s hot streak continued in April,” Brunswick County Association of Realtors CEO Cynthia Walsh says. “Prices are up, homes are selling at a record pace, and sellers are receiving nearly all of their asking price. I see absolutely no signs of a cooldown as we move into summer.”
