Wrightstown Housing Guide
Real Estate
Wrightstown is a very small housing market beside Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst. Individual transactions can move town-level statistics sharply, so buyers and sellers should use current comparable sales and property-specific due diligence rather than relying on a single headline number.

Wrightstown has very few transactions compared with larger towns. Redfin reported only two home sales in the three-month period behind its June 2026 median, so short-term medians should be interpreted cautiously.

Housing Character
Single-family houses make up an important part of the borough's residential streets, with varied ages, lot sizes and renovation levels.
Rental demand is influenced partly by the nearby military installation and the borough's small supply of apartments and rental homes.
Wrightstown's borough form differs from the larger rural parcels found in surrounding townships.
A property advertised as “Wrightstown 08562” may actually be in New Hanover, North Hanover, Springfield or another neighboring municipality. Verify the tax municipality before comparing taxes, zoning or schools.
Buyer & Renter Due Diligence
- Confirm that the property is legally in Wrightstown Borough, not merely in ZIP code 08562.
- Verify current property taxes and assessment information.
- Check open permits, certificates and code issues.
- Review flood mapping and drainage where applicable.
- Inspect roof, foundation, electric, plumbing and HVAC systems.
- Understand lead-based-paint requirements for older housing.
- Confirm parking, driveway and street restrictions.
- For rentals, verify lease terms, utilities and pet policies in writing.
- Confirm school assignment directly with the New Hanover district.
- Consider traffic and noise proximity to commercial streets and the neighboring installation.
