June sales second-highest in a decade

Brunswick County’s residential real estate market continued its momentum in June, racking up the second highest number of sales in June during the past decade. The luxury market remained strong and total sales volume for the year crossed over $1.4 billion.

“Back in 2017, I remember being excited about hitting $1 billion in sales,” said Cynthia Walsh, CEO of the Brunswick County Association of REALTORS® (BCAR). “Right now we’re on track with last year’s pace, where we had a total sales of $2.7 billion by the end of the year. Any reports of real estate slowing down are just not factual in Brunswick County.”

New listings increased 1% compared to last June, rising from 724 to 731. The number of homes sold was nearly level with last June, increasing from 557 to 558. Thirty-seven percent of sales in June were at or above list price, a total of 205. Of those sales, 125 were new construction and 80 were resales. Total sales volume jumped 17.2%, from $248,259,701 to $291,034,700. The average sales price increased 17% from $445,709 to $521,568, and the median sales price rose 9.1%, from $357,000 to $389,500. Brunswick County’s luxury market was especially strong in June 2025, recording 46 sales over $1 million, including a $6 million sale on Bald Head Island, the largest of the year so far. The absorption rate is approaching five months, while average days on market dropped below 75 and median days on market is now 37 days, signaling continued demand and an environment that favors sellers to an extent.

Year-to-date sales volume through June totaled $1,382,241,575, up 1.7% from $1,359,525,972 at the same point in 2024. The average year-to-date sales price is holding steady, up just 0.1% from $478,131 to $478,722, while the median sales price dipped slightly by 0.5% from $374,325 to $372,273.
