Duplexes in particular seem to be priced much better there as compared to Manayunk/Rox.  I

If I built what my architects wanted to build, I would break even because they all want to build palaces in markets that won't support what they are designing.

I bought a Mayan Palace timeshare and it was one of the worst financial mistakes I ever made.

No Section 8 or 2500 sqr ft palaces. 6- Long-term appreciation is a key factor.7- Not a necessity, but I tend to like houses on decent plots of land in suburbs.

My coach called me "Pharoh", the title originates in the term ‘’pr-aa’’ which means ‘’great house’’ and describes the royal palace.

I went into mine wanting to make a starter home look like a palace.

It will be a palace sitting on top of a hill overlooking the city.

With so many baby boomers retiring and the "governor" on mortgage lending, I predict a good appreciation pace for 7 to 10 yrs.Then, when you see advertising for...100%, 80/20 Hybrid pay option arms with a 650 score and no job....jump off the train and sell all properties, cash out of mutual funds and go rent a freakin palace for 5 yrs, because we'll be headed over a cliff again!
