While real estate activity in South Bethany was relatively flat this Spring when compared to last year, we experienced a nice flurry of activity in July. During the month, 4 properties went under contract in South Bethany (versus 1 in July of last year).

As the chart illustrates, sales are flat year-to-date, while sales volume in dollars is up 40%. We are experiencing a rise in inventory in all other areas at the beach, but inventory remains deficient in South Bethany and properties continue to sell quickly with 11 days as the median days-to-contract.

So far this year, our group has participated in more than 30% of property sales in the Bethany-Fenwick area. If we can offer you any real estate guidance, please give us a call.

The summer season is upon us, and we have enjoyed seeing so many of you enjoying Bear Trap Dunes over the last few weeks! During the month of May, just 1 property went under contract in Bear Trap. This compares to 1 at the same time last year and 2 in May of 2022. While there is vulnerability in the market, the continuation of low inventory in Bear Trap has kept values elevated (currently there are no properties for sale in the community).

If you have any questions about the market in general or any specific property, please call our Bear Trap Expert:

The summer season is upon us, and we have enjoyed seeing so many of you enjoying the area over the last few weeks! During the month of May, 3 properties went under contract in the community of Bayside.   This compares to 4 properties at the same time last year, and 4 in May of 2022. There is some softening of values, particularly for single family homes where we have seen a notable rise in inventory (13 properties for sale vs. 6 at this time in 2023). However, there is still a plethora of buyers waiting for specific properties to be listed for sale, especially condos/townhomes where there are now 2 properties for sale, vs. 4 at this time last year.
