Welcome to BP! I think you will find this website to be a great resource as you continue your real estate career. Good luck!

@Kenneth Knight

 If you find out, I'd like to know this as well. The city website doesn't seem to provide the info. My guess is that I may have to go to City Hall and ask some questions. 

@Marc Oister

 One method I learned on BP that I use in Philly is getting a list of the recently sold houses within about a 1 mile radius of your deal and hand writing a letter to the buyers that used cash. Let them know that you have a property that your selling in the same area and you would like them to look at it if they are interested in picking up more properties. 

Welcome to the site Derek, good luck in your real estate journey! I'm sure you will find all the resources you will need to get started in the business on this cite. Most importantly, just take action and good things will come.

@Ekaterina Stepanova Yes if it's renovated and rented I'd say that makes sense. Definitely one you should investigate further. 

If by "fully renovated" you mean that you can move a tenant right in without having to do any more work, the Ringgold Street house seems like a good price. It is deeper into Point Breeze than abundance of high priced new construction homes but close enough that I'd say that's good value in my opinion. I'm not familiar enough with West Philly neighborhoods to comment on the other houses.  

Welcome to the site Christine!

As you search around the site, you will find that there's plenty of opportunity to invest no matter what your lifestyle is. Good luck!

Welcome to BP, good luck in your ventures!

   @Branden Chin is right, Philadelphia is a great market to invest in, but I would probably suggest you look locally first. I'm sure there are plenty of highly successful investors in your home town actively participating in the market everyday. Building your knowledge of the business locally will be far more valuable then trying to take advantage of a "hot" market far away. 

Robert,

Welcome to Biggerpockets! I am not the person you are looking for; however, the more you engage people on this site, the more resources you will find. Good job taking the first step and good luck on achieving your goal!
