New Hanover County covers about 192 square miles of land in the southeastern part of North Carolina. It is one of the smallest counties in the state by land area, ranking 99th of 100, which tends to mean tighter lots and less raw acreage. There are also roughly 137 square miles of water inside the county line, so waterfront and water-access parcels come up here more often than in most of the state. At roughly 1,267 people per square mile (243,333 residents), New Hanover is one of the most densely populated counties in the state, 3rd of 100. Vacant land here is more often an infill lot or a leftover parcel than raw acreage, and zoning tends to drive what a piece is worth.
Our current estimate for vacant land in New Hanover County averages about $55,000 per acre (Buy Sell Land NC LLC estimate, December 2025), 3rd highest of North Carolina's 100 counties and above the statewide county median of $13,000. A single parcel can land well above or below that average depending on road access, utilities, terrain and flood zone. Get a free estimate for your New Hanover County land ›

New Hanover is the second-smallest county in North Carolina by land area and one of the most built-out, so vacant land is scarce and priced high: our county average is about $55,000 per acre. Within the county, price is driven by three things: whether the lot can connect to public water and sewer, how much of it sits in a flood zone, and whether building near marsh or open water needs a state CAMA permit from the NC Division of Coastal Management. We check all three, plus the City of Wilmington or county zoning, before we make an offer.
Every purchase closes with a licensed North Carolina real estate attorney. We pay standard closing costs, there are no agent fees or commissions, and we buy the land as-is, including wet or flood-zone lots, inherited land and parcels with back taxes.
