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 New Castle 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 Villas are in unincorporated New Castle County, so the property tax bill is county and school tax with no town tax on top. On a new home, the tax shown on a listing may be for the land only, so the bill can rise once the house is assessed.
Call 302-549-5164 and we will pull the recorded figures for the specific home you are considering.
