A clearer next step for your Wilmington home.
Wilmington's homes range from Victorian and Colonial-era houses in the downtown historic district to 1920s Colonial Revival homes in Forest Hills and newer houses in gated communities near the Intracoastal Waterway. Whatever kind of home you own here, Doorbloom helps you explore your options with real estate professionals at your own pace.
Downtown Wilmington sits inside a large National Register historic district, with homes spanning the Colonial era through the Victorian period. Landmarks like the Bellamy Mansion show the Greek Revival and Italianate styles found there. Just beyond downtown, Carolina Place grew as the city's first planned streetcar suburb between about 1906 and 1941. Its streets hold Queen Anne, Colonial Revival and Craftsman bungalow homes. Carolina Heights is another older area within the city's historic districts.
Forest Hills began in the mid-1920s as Wilmington's first automobile suburb, with Colonial Revival, Dutch Colonial, Tudor Revival and Cape Cod homes on lots of about half an acre. South of downtown, Sunset Park mixes early Queen Anne and Craftsman houses with Cape Cods and ranches, many built in the early 1940s. Near the coast, describing your home honestly helps the right professionals respond, including roof age, flood zone, crawl space condition, termite history and any storm repairs.

My Wilmington home is in a flood zone or had storm damage. Should I mention that?
Yes, it helps to share what you know, such as the flood zone, any past water or storm damage, and what repairs were made.
