Good Neighborhoods for STRs in Philly???

[Lauren Nolan Sellers]

Hi! I am at the beginning of my search looking for good areas to purchase 1 to 2 short-term rentals in up-and-coming areas of Philadelphia...a plus for properties in need of major renovations, and ones close to African American cultural attractions. 

If there are no good places to look in those areas (due to cost, safety, availability etc.) then I am open to suggestions or just good places for STR investment in general.

I hope to connect with someone who knows Philly intimately and can make some recommendations about where to look.
Thanks so much!

You can't do STR in Philly starting in 2023 unless primary residence then you can STR for less than 180 days /yr or it must be CMX-3+ zoned to do STR full-time.
