new member from Philly
I'm a retired (well, semi-retired) tech industry professional. I just relocated to the Philly area from MId-Hudson Valley in New York and I'm really energized over new construction in the city, fine dining, cultural attractions, sports, charm, beauty (love Fairmont Park) -- it's so encouraging so see. I want to learn more about real estate and business opportunities so I can invest in this dynamic and exciting city!
