Can I get a Mortgage?
Greetings!

Summertime, and the living is easy in Coastal Delaware. You don't have to go far to find lots of fun things to do. This morning I started with a brisk walk in Cape Henlopen State Park with my friend Sophie. Tonight there is Zumba at Canalfront Park in Lewes. June offers up a Calendar of events that include Summer Concerts in Rehoboth Beach, Lewes, Milton, Bethany Beach and at other parks throughout Sussex County. Top names come to venues like the Freeman Stage, which we are highlighting in this Issue. Later this month is the Mid-Atlantic Sea Glass Festival at the Lewes Historical Society complex, always a favorite show.

Meet Phil Kane 

Phil Kane

Phil and his wife Ellen moved to Delaware late 2012. We were very fortunate to be their agents and help them make the move from the fast-paced DC world to the slower pace of Coastal Delaware. Phil has a wonderful, eclectic background and has brought all that energy with him.
Real Estate in Coastal Delaware?
Home prices rise Now that the market has recovered, what's happening with prices in  Coastal Delaware?
As we always say -
"All Real Estate is Local"
so the answer depends on what type of property and community we are talking about.
The best way to answer this question is to look at what it is people want to buy and then see what's happening with prices.

Picnic in the Park
The Second Annual "Picnic in the Park" takes place on Saturday, June 2, 2013, in Lewes Canalfront Park.
Lewes Canalfront Park
Again this year, Active Adults Realty is sponsoring The Buttery tent.

This park is one of my favorite things about living in Lewes. The canal is not lined with tall condo buildings blocking the view. The park is open to all and there are activities all season long for adults and children alike. We hope to see you there!

Freeman Stage Calendar

The Freeman Stage in Bayside has become a little bit of Wolf Trap or the Merriweather Post Pavilion, two performing arts locations I used to patronize when I lived in the DC Metropolitan Area. A few of the big names like Sheryl Crow are already sold out, but there is a wide range of entertainment scheduled at the Freeman Stage throughout the summer season.

Can I get a Mortgage?

I'm retired, can I get a Mortgage? We do get this question often from our Buyer Clients. We decided to ask Gail Alm at -

"Absolutely. How large a mortgage will depend on your retirement income, but you can still get a mortgage when you are retired."

Ten thousand people per day are turning 65. Boomers are just beginning to retire, and Coastal Delaware is the sweet spot in the heart of the Mid-Atlantic Region. Active Adults Realty is totally focused on providing real estate services to Baby Boomers.

 

Sincerely,
