Buying at The Peninsula is exciting, and there’s a lot to understand. Kevin works for you and explains every cost in plain English.
Why Use a Buyer’s Agent?
A buyer’s agent works for you, not the seller. Kevin helps you compare homes, understand the true monthly cost, negotiate the price, and guides you through inspections and closing.
Before touring homes, Kevin will go over the Delaware Consumer Information Statement with you. It explains the different roles an agent can play. Then you’ll sign a simple buyer agency agreement. Kevin explains it all before you sign.
What to Know Before You Buy
Understand HOA and Club Costs
Every home pays the community HOA, and some neighborhoods add their own condo fee. Club membership is separate and has three levels. See the Community Guide for the 2026 numbers.
Resale or New Construction?
Kevin can help you compare homes across neighborhoods, builders and price ranges.
Second Home or Vacation Rental?
To place your home in The Peninsula’s rental program, you need a Sports or Reserve club membership (2026 rules). A Social membership doesn’t include it. Renters pay a resort fee to use the amenities. Confirm current rules with the club before you buy.
Fees, dues and membership rules come from The Peninsula’s 2026 published schedules. They are for information only, change every year, and must be confirmed directly with The Peninsula Club and the community associations.
Getting Pre-Approved
A pre-approval letter shows sellers you’re ready to buy and helps you set your budget. Kevin can recommend local lenders.
