Delaware
Overview
Delaware presents a niche but strategic investment environment due to its favorable corporate tax structure, strong legal framework, and proximity to major Northeastern metros. Wilmington leads with institutional opportunities in multifamily and mixed-use development, while smaller cities offer stable, income-oriented potential in workforce housing and logistics.
With limited supply, long-term tenancy, and cross-state capital interest, Delaware is well-positioned for GP/co-GP partnerships, capital structuring, and third-party asset management—especially for groups seeking exposure to low-competition, high-retention submarkets.
