A Small Community Built on Raised Ground

The land under The Grove was low and wooded before it was built. The developer brought in fill to raise the site and put in drainage before the homes went up.
Why it matters: elevation and drainage drive flood insurance cost near the bays. Two homes a short walk apart can carry different numbers.
What to ask for: the flood zone and, where one exists, the elevation certificate for the specific home.
Small size: with about 60 homes, the association budget is spread across fewer owners, so it is worth reading the reserves and the budget closely.
We will get the resale certificate and the flood information for any home you are considering before you commit.

About the Taxes

Read this first: Active Adults Realty is not a tax, legal or financial advisor and nothing below is advice. Confirm every figure with your own tax professional and with Sussex County before you rely on it.
The state picture: Delaware has no state sales tax, no estate tax and no inheritance tax, and Social Security is not taxed.
The local picture: The Grove at Fenwick appears to sit outside the Selbyville town limits, in unincorporated Sussex County, so the property tax bill would be county and school tax with no town tax on top. Sussex County reassessed every property recently, so older tax figures on a listing may not reflect what you will pay.
Call 302-549-5164 and we will pull the recorded figures for the specific home you are considering.
