Whether it’s to your delight or dismay, it’s not exactly a secret anymore that Delaware is a retirement oasis.

September 14, 2016 | Comments Off on Ranch Homes: Not Your Grandmother’s Rancher

When you hear the words “ranch home”, what do you think of? Do you think of your grandmother’s rancher? Or perhaps something from the 60’s-70’s with long, narrow hallways and small, closed-in rooms? It’s alright; most people do! Also referred to as ‘ramblers’ or ‘starter homes’ ranch-style floor plans are best known for their simple, close-to-the […]

Local’s Summer: Life at the Delaware Beaches in September The end of summer is always a bittersweet time when you live at the beach.

Natalie Hay By Natalie Hay, in All Communities
July 19, 2016 | Comments Off on An Eastern Shore Guide to Cracking Crabs

The smell of Old Bay and melted butter is making your mouth water. Armed with a mallet and table knife you can’t wait to begin devouring that oh-so-sweet crab meat. You crack open a beer, look down at the pile of perfectly steamed, bright red crabs, and think… “Where on Earth do I start??” This […]

July 6, 2016 | Comments (1)

Now the railroad ties are gone and a crushed stone path known as the Junction and Breakwater Trail lies in its place. The […]

Another common question I get asked from homeowners is whom do I recommend to help them move from their home/storage to their amazing, new, Schell Brothers home.  Well, we’ve hopefully used him for the last time BUT we’ve done a few moves in the local area and can honestly say that Spencer For Hire have been amazing […]
