TRICIA BENNETT

Broker | Realtor

Tricia transitioned into real estate after selling her family business, Bennett Brothers Yachts. She has been deeply involved in Wilmington’s real estate market as a business owner, property builder, and investor since relocating from Connecticut over 30 years ago. Committed to community, Tricia leads efforts with Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity, mentors through WILMA, and supports the Little Buddy program. Outside work, she trains for marathons, enjoys travel with her four grown children, and shares her home with two rescue dogs, Marlena and Stella.

ABOUT TRICIA

Tricia’s path to real estate is as dynamic as her professional background. After leading her family’s company, Bennett Brothers Yachts, an internationally recognized custom yacht builder and restoration boatyard in Wilmington, she transitioned into real estate with the same entrepreneurial drive and commitment to excellence. As former President, her leadership earned her recognition as an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year nominee, a testament to her vision, innovation, and ability to guide a business to success.

Having relocated from Connecticut more than 30 years ago, Tricia has experienced Wilmington’s remarkable growth firsthand. Beyond watching the market experience explosive growth, she has been deeply involved—as a business owner, property builder, and successful investor in both residential and commercial real estate. That perspective gives her clients an insider’s advantage, whether they’re relocating to the area, searching for the next perfect home, or investing in the Cape Fear region.

Passionate about the community, Tricia is actively involved with organizations such as Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity, the Big Buddy Program, Wilma’s Mentorship Program, and Homes of Hope India. When she isn’t helping clients or giving back, you will likely find her training with the Without Limits running group—logging miles through many Wilmington neighborhoods as she prepares for her next ultramarathon.

For Tricia, real estate is more than a career—it’s about helping others find their place in the vibrant, growing community she proudly calls home.

BOBBI AND LUCY

"Patricia Bennett was strongly recommended by our Wilmington-based financial planner. We were contemplating a move to this historic Port City and needed help finding just the right neighborhood for our unique family needs. Patricia immediately impressed us with her ability to listen, her expansive knowledge of the area, her caring demeanor, and her professional skills. With Ms. Bennett’s help, we made an offer to purchase the perfect home. Because we lived an hour away, she went above and beyond and met with an inspector and multiple contractors, on our behalf, during the anxious due diligence process. She reported their findings immediately, helped bring the purchase to a happy conclusion, and even attended the closing.

After experiencing this very personal service, we were eager to have Patricia sell our out-of-town home. It was truly incredible to watch her enlist the entire Intracoastal Realty team, stage the home, create marketing material, and present our property in a beautiful manner. She made the long round trip multiple times to oversee weekly open houses and check on the house.

Patricia revealed her pragmatic nature and savvy negotiating skills when the market was destabilized by unexpected economic and political forces. She was responsible for bringing an offer to a successful purchase agreement. There were many bumps along the way, but it was her skills on full display that eventually saved the day for all concerned.

Ms. Bennett is now a friend and our forever realtor. She has earned our highest endorsement."

LPG Impact Initiative

GIVING BACK

We love our community and want to use our time, talent and resources to give back and invest in the place we call home. As part of the Lanier Property Group Impact Initiative each agent has chosen a non-profit to highlight and support this year. For every transaction the agent closes, Lanier Property Group Team donates $25 to their chosen charity. Many of the agents match the donation financially and donate their time to support these causes that are close to their hearts. We are proud to support our agents' interests in giving back and these unique and impactful organizations doing such good work in Wilmington and the surrounding areas.

Tricia's Chosen Charity:

CAPE FEAR HABITAT FOR HUMANITY

Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity’s vision and mission is seeking to put God's love into action, Cape Fear Habitat brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope.

“One of the many wonderful aspects of working with LPG is their commitment to the community.  Every agent selects a non-profit that they would like to donate a portion of every sale throughout the year. Cape Fear Habitat was an easy choice for me since I have been a supporter for a number of years working on the construction sites and countlessTurkey Trots. Habitat is empowering, not only to the homeowners who work extremely hard in the program, but for all of us who work on the construction site and experience the camaraderie and power of many helping hands. Whether working with college students on their spring break or a fierce team of dedicated friends on a Women’s build, it is truly a very special experience.” - Tricia Bennett
