Areas We Serve in Delaware
Our buyers purchase across all three counties: Wilmington and New Castle County, Dover and Kent County, plus Sussex County and the coastal towns.
Selling a House As-Is in Delaware
Delaware requires most residential sellers to deliver a Seller's Disclosure of Real Property Condition Report before an offer is accepted, covering the structure, systems, water and sewer, and known defects. Selling as-is does not remove it.
The bigger number on a Delaware settlement statement is the realty transfer tax, which is among the highest in the country and is customarily split between buyer and seller, with some municipalities adding their own share. First-time buyers get relief on their portion, but sellers should plan for a meaningful line item. Delaware is an attorney state, so counsel handles the closing.
Coastal Property, Older Housing, and Estates
Sussex County's coastal properties carry flood-zone designations, rising insurance costs, and salt-air deterioration a lender will notice. Homes with flood history or an unrepaired claim are difficult to finance.
Wilmington and northern Delaware run older, with pre-war rowhomes and twin homes carrying knob-and-tube wiring, failing roofs, and old heating systems. Delaware also draws a large retiree population, which means a steady flow of estates where heirs live out of state and inherit a house they cannot maintain. Our buyers purchase all of it as-is, contents included.
Selling a House in Delaware - FAQs
How much is the realty transfer tax in Delaware?
Delaware's realty transfer tax is among the highest in the country and is customarily split between buyer and seller, with some municipalities adding their own share. It is a meaningful line on the settlement statement, so factor it in before you agree to a price.
Does Delaware require a seller disclosure?
Yes. Most residential sellers must deliver a Seller's Disclosure of Real Property Condition Report before an offer is accepted, covering structure, systems, water and sewer, and known defects. It applies on cash sales.
Can I sell a Delaware beach property with flood history?
Yes. Flood-zone designation, rising insurance costs, and unrepaired storm damage make coastal Sussex County homes difficult to finance. Our buyers purchase them as-is, flood history included.
Do I need an attorney to sell a house in Delaware?
Yes. Delaware is an attorney state, so counsel conducts the closing and handles the title work. Budget for the attorney fee and expect a slightly longer timeline than an escrow state.
Can I sell an older Wilmington rowhome that needs work?
Yes. Pre-war rowhomes and twins with knob-and-tube wiring, failing roofs, and old heating systems are common in northern Delaware and routinely stop a mortgage. Our buyers purchase them as-is.
How fast can a Delaware cash sale close?
Offers typically come within 24 to 48 hours and closings usually run two to three weeks, set mostly by attorney review and the title search. Inherited property takes longer if the estate has not been probated.
