The Osprey Point neighborhood near Rehoboth Beach is the focus of a heated legal and public battle after NV Homes filed a 27-page lawsuit on May 23rd, 2025, against Osprey Point Reserve, LLC.
The lawsuit, filed in Delaware’s Court of Chancery, accuses the developer of failing to deliver resort-style amenities promised to homebuyers.
These amenities were central to NV Homes’ marketing efforts and included:
- A private marina
- A kayak launch
- A bulkhead beach area
- An infinity pool and bayfront views
Homeowners claim these features were never legally feasible due to protected wetlands and missing permits.
NV Homes’ marketing materials included renderings and brochures that presented a false version of what could realistically be built.
Residents Fight Back

Outraged by what they describe as calculated deception, homeowners launched ExposingNVHomes.com, a website detailing their frustrations with the unfulfilled promises with amenities in the neighborhood, and laying out documentation they believe proves NV Homes acted in bad faith.
The website highlights:
- Promotional renderings of amenities that could not legally exist
- Public disclosures that obscured permit requirements
- Attempts to redefine or minimize the scope of the promised features
The community has voiced strong disapproval, with many stating they would not have purchased homes without the assurance of the advertised amenities for community usage & enjoyment.

Key legal documents and public disclosures support the residents’ position, and legal experts suggest NV Homes may struggle to proceed without proper agency approvals.
