Pennsylvania newbie advice

Hello everyone, I live in a town outside Philadelphia and I’m looking to possibly invest in the city as soon as next year. I have noticed a lot of construction in many neighborhoods in the city as I pass through often to see friends. My question is do you link Philadelphia is a solid market for a beginner to start in and if so in what direction do you guys see the path of progress heading?

Morning @Kyle Trotta I believe the city is a great location for investors of all experience levels and strategies. There are definitely neighborhoods that are better suited to flips than other that are best for rentals. Much of the city is very block by block and its a good idea to take a look at the home values in different areas as well as the proportion of owning vs. renting in different sections of town. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss!
