Sea Coast Realty Breaks Ground on New Habitat Home

On Saturday, September 25, 2010, a small crowd gathered in an empty lot on Corbett Street in Wilmington, NC. Despite the early hour, the group was buzzing with excitement, because soon a new Habitat for Humanity home would begin to take shape.

Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Realty associates, staff, and their families joined with representatives and volunteers from Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity to say prayers and well wishes before the ceremonial first shovels of earth were turned. When the ceremony ended, an army of volunteers armed with shovels, including the homeowner and her daughter, were hard at work digging the footers for the new home.

The new homeowners hope to be in their completed Habitat home by January 2011. The home is sponsored by Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Realty.
