If you are thinking of relocating or buying that second home at the beach, what are you waiting for?

With mortgage rates at record lows, home prices seemingly tailor made for buyers and motivated sellers looking to close before winter creeps in, now is the perfect time to purchase your new home.

Why not hit the beach this fall and make your summer dreams come true!!!

See you at the beach,

Lee Ann

Did you know Kathy Lee owns a home in Rehoboth? She has always frequented the area, especially since she grew up here. Her co-host, Hoda, also has a family summer home here.

Recently the two women visited and brought along their show! Check out the video here. Pretty cool having mini-celebrities here, huh?!

WOW! The NRDC (Natural Resources Defense Council) has rated Rehoboth and Dewey Beach as two of the top cleanest beach water sites in the country! This is an amazing honor, especially wonderful since only four beaches nationwide earned the honor.

Consideration for the award is based on five factors: water quality in 2010; water quality overall for the past 3 years; frequency of testing; issuing advisories and posting closings (if needed).

The locals take a great deal of care to keep the beaches safe, clean and fun. In fact, Prudential Gallo holds an annual beach-cleanup day, where this past May I rolled up my sleeves, along with members of The Lee Ann Wilkinson Group, to do our part. It's a rewarding experience.

And the news gets better! For 3 consecutive years, we’ve had the cleanest beach water in the US. The EPA reports on beaches nationwide. Find out all about your beach here. The Natural Resources Defense Council’s website provides a quick look at Americas most popular beaches and their five-factor ratings.  The ‘Best and Worst Beach Water Quality’ article can be found here.

So, as we (quickly) approach the 4^th of July, I wish your family nothing but fun in the sun on Lewes and Rehoboth Beach.

All the best,

Lee Ann

The Sussex County Delaware demographics are here! The county just released the June stats and they are pretty interesting: Did you know that in 2010, 42% of home owners in Sussex County own their home outright (no mortgage). Kudos to them!

Additionally, the sales volume of homes in the county has risen in the past year. The report points toward stabilization in Sussex. Check out the full Sussex County Demographics report.

Best,

Lee Ann

Mr. Burns will be arriving in Delaware that morning and has agreed to participate in a press event to highlight the need for Delaware to have a national park.  As you know, the Delaware Congressional Delegation introduced historic legislation to authorize the creation of a national park in Delaware – the First State National Historical Park Act of 2011 in February.

I was reading Delaware Today last night and was pleasantly surprised when I happened on page 60, Delaware Today's 'Best Places to Live: 35 Great towns, How does yours rate?' Lewes Beach Delaware is number one!

Yeah, our sweet little town has won the hearts of the locals and embodies its slogan "The first town in the first state". I am so proud to call it home. The article provides a quick overview of several categories rated by locals; a few are: Safety, Commute time, Shopping/Dining and Arts & Culture. While they rate on a few different scales, I'd of course give our town top-honors for everything...there really is so much to do here. From the Kite Festival in the Spring to the Christmas Parade in town. In fact, you can find out more about Lewes events and the Delaware Today article here.
