Emerging neighborhoods in South Philly
Hello Philly!
I've been hearing a lot about South Philadelphia as an investment opportunity but haven't spent much time there.
What are some buy & hold neighborhood recommendations?
Does anyone have experience in Point Breeze, Grays Ferry or Brewerytown?
Thank you

Hello Jason, I live in south phila. All of the areas you mentioned are great areas to invest in. In my experience though, there is a ton of competition for deals in point breeze....but they are still there. I am actually doing a flip right now on 22nd st. Parts of Grays ferry that are closer to point breeze have had a lot of attention for some time now but there are still plenty of opportunities, you just may have to go a bit farther west. Brewerytown is not in south phila, it’s north of the city between the schuylkill river and Fairmount...and a little farther west....this area is very hot right now but still very gritty, especially the farther north you go. But all areas are great to invest in! Keep the community posted with your progress! Good luck!
