Lindsey Cooke + Shore to Shore RE Group

Newark, DE

Lindsey Cooke is an Associate Broker with Real Broker, LLC and the owner and team lead of the Shore to Shore Real Estate Group, working with buyers and sellers across Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. She is a Delaware native, lives in Newark, and has built her practice around the state she grew up in. She came to real estate from human services and drug and alcohol counseling, with more than fifteen years of customer service behind her, and that background still shapes how she works. A house move is rarely just a transaction. It usually sits on top of something else, a new job, a separation, a growing family, a first home after years of renting, and she treats it that way. Clients consistently describe her as persistent, patient, and genuinely easy to talk to. Lindsey serves as President of the Delaware chapter of the LGBTQ+ Real Estate Alliance, and she has helped many LGBTQ+ buyers relocate to Delaware and Maryland specifically because they were looking for somewhere safe and affirming to land. That work is not a marketing line for her. She is an out lesbian REALTOR and a NAGLREP member, and she is candid with clients about which neighborhoods will feel welcoming and which will not. Her transaction record covers seventy-seven closed sales and roughly thirty million dollars in volume over the past five years, at prices from around two hundred and twenty thousand to one point two million. That range is deliberate. She works with first-time buyers using state and federal assistance programs just as readily as she works with move-up buyers, investors, and sellers of larger homes, and she ranks in the top fifteen percent at her company. On the listing side she is hands-on about preparation and pricing, and her recent sales have run close to or above asking with short days on market. On the buying side she is a useful guide to how different parts of the state actually differ, from New Castle County suburbs like Newark, Bear, and Middletown, through Dover and Smyrna in Kent County, out to the Sussex County beach towns of Lewes, Rehoboth Beach, Bethany Beach, and Millsboro, and across the line into Cecil County, Maryland. She is licensed in all three states she serves, holds a Delaware associate broker licence, and leads a team of six agents. She is a graduate of Alexis I. duPont High School and Delaware Technical Community College.
