Coastal Club vs Bay Crossing — The Route 1 Premium

Bay Crossing’s east-of-Route-1 position commands roughly a $180K average price premium over Coastal Club’s range. At 6.5% financing on 80% loan-to-value, that translates to approximately $830/month more in mortgage cost. That premium buys daily no-crossing beach proximity; Coastal Club buys Cape Henlopen State Park access and new-construction pricing. Neither is objectively better — the right choice depends on how you’ll actually use the beach.

Same Sussex County tax advantage either wayDelaware has no state sales tax, exempts Social Security from state income tax, and offers a $12,500-per-person pension exclusion. These apply identically whether you buy at Coastal Club or Bay Crossing.
