Bayside Realty helps buyers, sellers and investors across Sussex County, Delaware, from Seaford on the Nanticoke River to Selbyville, Millville and Frankford near the Delaware beaches. Broker/Owner Dale Hunter Jr. is licensed in Delaware (RB-0031205) and Maryland (#519849), so clients who are comparing homes on both sides of the state line work with one broker the whole way through.

Towns we serve in Sussex County

  • Seaford – western Sussex County on the Nanticoke River.
  • Selbyville – southeastern Sussex County near Fenwick Island and the Maryland line.
  • Millville – inland from Bethany Beach.
  • Frankford – between Selbyville and Millville, a short drive to the beaches.

Sussex County community amenities

Part of what draws buyers to this corner of Delaware is how much is close by:

  • Beaches. Selbyville, Millville and Frankford are a short drive to Bethany Beach and Fenwick Island, with Delaware Seashore State Park and Fenwick Island State Park along the coast.
  • Boating and the water. Seaford sits on the Nanticoke River for boating, fishing and kayaking, and the inland bays are close to the eastern towns.
  • Golf. Bayside in Selbyville is a resort community built around a Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course, and there are several other public and private courses in the area.
  • Parks and trails. Trap Pond State Park, near Laurel and a short drive from Seaford, is known for its bald cypress swamp and paddling trails.
  • Healthcare. Beebe Healthcare’s South Coastal Health Campus is in the Millville area, and TidalHealth Nanticoke serves Seaford.
  • No state sales tax. Delaware doesn’t charge sales tax, which makes furnishing a new home or second home a little easier.

Many newer Sussex County neighborhoods also have their own clubhouses, pools and HOA amenities. Dale can walk you through what each community offers and what the HOA fees cover.

What we help with

  • New construction and land. Dale has been buying and renovating homes since 1993 and works with Del Mar Construction, which builds about 15 new homes a year, so he can talk lots, building costs and new-home options in detail.
  • Primary homes, second homes and investment property.
  • Waterfront and luxury homes.
  • Foreclosures and properties that need work.
  • First-time buyers.
  • Sellers who want pricing, marketing and negotiation from a broker with 31 years in the business.
