Philly (Kensington ) vacant lot opportunity ?? Question

[Ruben S Paul]

Hello BP community,

So I came across a vacant lot opportunity in the northern side of Kensington, closer to Kensington and Allegheny. I was skeptical of this idea originally because of how bad the area is . Literally and open air drug market, although i have seen what investors have done in East Kensington, Port Richmond , Fishtown and can’t help but to think investors may find their way upwards. Especially since it’s so close to 95, and the Market Line, close to downtown and other hot spots. Does anyone know if investors may be working their way up into Kensington at any point or will I have to wait this one out for 10 + years if I buy??? I also noticed many out of town investors buying land in this part of Kensington as well. Your answers are greatly appreciated!!
