Leland, NC Real Estate News

The Wilmington/Leland area has not seen an open house drawing extravaganza like this. Every weekend day in June two great existing homes in the Jefferson Landing neighborhood of Brunswick Forest in Leland, North Carolina will both be open from 1-4PM. We'd love to have as many people as possible see these two awesome properties. In order to add a little incentive we'll be having two drawings each weekend day through June, one for each house Saturday and Sunday. In order to enter the drawing you have to tour them both and then fill out comment sheets about both of them. At the end of the day we'll match up the comment sheets from each house, draw two winners (using a random number generator) and then call the winners to find out which one of the following four great prizes they want: 1. a...

Well, it was a hot day today in Southeastern North Carolina - perfect for a Signature Homes' Luau in LA at their environmentally-designed SeaBrooke development in Leland. Getting ready for the event. This SeaBrooke model was a Parade of Homes Bronze Award Winner. The party Luau theme was promoted with vigor and hilarity by Christy and Greg Beck. Music for the event was provided by the Pantastic Steel Band. Catering by Charles Davis himself of Saw Mill Catering. Good, good stuff - my fav was the Caribbean style chicken. As you can see from the following four photos, area REALTORs showed up in force. On-site agent Laura Heal hosted the event, along with developer/builders Robin and Deans Hackney. Obviously some of the agents attending the event came in the spirit of the event. This happy ...

We were on a walk in Annsdale Park in Brunswick Forest in Leland, NC and noticed something up ahead. Can you tell what it is? Look on the ground, just off the sidewalk on the right side a bit before the tree. A closer look, can you tell yet? Can you see now? Now you can see the nesting bird, right? I was able to get very close and she (I presume) didn't move a bit. Later in the day we came back and this is what we saw: The mother bird and the father, who's also in the area and sometimes does a decoy act sort of on his side with his wing up and squawking like he's injured, were both around, and not very upset - I think they were feeding. The next time we walked by the mom was back on the nest.

Donatella and Jay Bennett's German Shepherd Buiser loves to go on early morning walks in Brunswick Forest in Leland, NC. A great part of the appeal for Bruiser is the irrigation system water sprinklers. He doesn't hurt them, but runs from one to another leaping and playing. Brunswick Forest also has a dog park and several conveniently located human parks where dogs can play and walk on leashes.

Monday afternoon was so nice Marge, Pepper and I went for a walk in the beautiful new Annsdale Park in Brunswick Forest in Leland, North Carolina. These videos capture our respective opinions. First Marge says hello: Then I attempt to show you the park and say hi: And finally, here's Pepper: The three of us truly enjoyed ourselves. This is a great time of year for early evening walks and Annsdale park is a great place to do it.

Saturday afternoon Marge and I went to Grayson Park in Leland, NC for two reasons. The first was to tour and talk about Stevens Fine Homes solar model featured in Grayson Park. The second reason was to party! As soon as we got to the clubhouse and said hello we headed over to the solar model home. From the front the house looks like the other homes on the street, but state-of-the-art solar panels on the back roof provide all the energy used by the house. Here's developer and builder Craig Stevens talking about the solar home and the party! We also met some folks in the market for environmentally sound, energy savings home, including Michael Rhodes, who is touring all the green homes and communities in the area before making a decision. And, in Michael's words Inside the model plenty of ...

My good friend and HDTV expert Alfred Poor follows my blog and has exclaimed more than once that it seems I spend a lot of time eating for free at Realtor events. And of course he's right (he generally is) but as a working member of the technology press for nigh on to 30 years (he started young), Alfred works his own way well around a promotional luncheon, I know for a fact. This week I laid kinda low on the meal circuit, but Thursday and Friday made up for it at events involving Compass Pointe and Brunswick Forest, two of Leland's newest new home communities and, once they get built out, the two largest. On Thursday we went to the newly-opened sales center at Compass Pointe. As you can see the roads are now paved going into the community. The flora in the neighborhood mixes pines and p...

I think that the best thing that we can do is to share the tips and ideas that are tried and work! A website translation site is systransoft.com.  It translates your works into the language that you choose. We are working with many latinos in the area and it is so good to be able to converse with them.  I have not written any contracts yet, but that will come. Another site that you may want to check out, as far as translation goes, is google.com/ig.  I have found more success with systransoft.com Take care and know I care, Ginger of Southport

Here's a terrific buy in Leland, NC, the hottest real estate market in Brunswick County in southeastern North Carolina (can you say "beaches and golf"?). This brand new home on a half acre is priced incredibly well. The back yard is half open for flexible use and half wooded for privacy. Very very nice open floor plan. You've got to see the inside of this house to experience all the cool design features the builders employed, spacious and gracious - it's equally great for entertaining and just everyday living. No HOA means no extra dues and you can park your boat and RV in the backyard. Check out the neighborhood, call me to check out the house!

Convenient to beaches, golf, shopping, highways, and pretty much everything you can think of, but it's also in an established neighborhood with NO HOA. 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a wide open back yard just ready for your lifestyle. The price of $239,900 can not be beat for new construction on this size lot in Leland. Come take a look. Drive around the neighborhood, check out the house, and if you'd like to see it, please give me a call at (910) 297-8753.

This great listing in Magnolia Greens Golf Plantation in Leland, NC is under contract. This is a clear indication that there are buyers out there and they will buy if the price is right! I've noticed in the last few months that paying attention to the news media about the market is pretty self-defeating. There ARE buyers, they CAN get mortgages, and they WILL close on contracts. So y'all can fret if you want, I'm busy marketing my listings. Oh yeah, and I'd love comments on the video. I'm experimenting with video in blogs and other places, so let me know what you think! thanks,

There's certainly a lot to like about this nifty home in the Magnolia Greens golf community in Leland, North Carolina. Nice size, great floor plan, perfect for entertaining inside and out. One of the best screened porches I've seen, fenced area in back yard with private woodsy area, too. Rocking chair front porch. Great condition on a quiet street. Oh, and P.S. you don't HAVE to play golf if you live in Magnolia Greens!

Tucked in near the back of Magnolia Greens you'll find this very pleasant home on a quiet street with larger than usual lots. 1153 Willow Pond Lane is a brick home with vinyl gable accents. The mature, varied landscaping is easy to care for and includes very interesting plantings. The main living area of the house has brand new upscale hardwood flooring. The room has built in bookcases, can lights in the ceiling, and of course a ceiling fan. There's also a gas log fireplace with mantle and a view to the wooded back yard through the screened porch. Here's another view of the main living room. As you can imagine you will spend a lot of time in this room, so use your imagination to place a couple of sofas, some easy chairs, lots of books, a cozy fire, and you sitting their all comfy and ha...
