New landlord requirement for office in the city????

[Kristin Feerst]

Hi everyone,

Just went into eclipse to renew a rental license and it came up with a new statement saying either the property must be managed by a PM in the city or we must have an address of an office in the city.  

What is this?  I live 20min from my property just over the bridge in NJ.  If I lived in west or far NE Philly I’d actually be further away.  What is the point of this new requirement?

I think I am done with Philly, let me know if you are realtor and want to help me exit this ridiculous landlord hostile place!

TIA!
