vs national baseline

Delaware is small but punches above its weight thanks to no sales tax (a draw for nearby PA/MD/NJ investors) and Sussex County beach-town STR demand. Wilmington offers urban LTR yields; Dover and Newark provide military and university tenant bases. The state is a frequent corporate-domicile choice for DSCR-borrowing LLCs even when the property sits elsewhere.
