See what is possible thru Special Use or Variance permits.4. 

@Joey Chalhoub This decision should be read narrowly to address statutory frameworks such as MN where state law permits it to take property to satisfy real estate taxes/penalties/interest, sell it, and keep any surplus outright.

There are plenty of deals in Philly on and off-market from wholesalers, who are pretty decent in Philly compared to other places.You will need to get your GC license here and learn the permitting process and necessity here as well.

The location is ideal, as it’s situated in a neighborhood that permits short-term rentals (STRs), making it a great investment opportunity.

If you have a D property in an A neighborhood, then it's likely vacant and ripe for rehab, or already purchased and awaiting permits for rehab (or tear down).

However, I will always contact the owner as soon as time permits.

Many newcomers spend their first few years working under a sponsoring broker, and during that period, the broker often earns a significant portion of the revenue.

Since you can’t do a formal inspection, a detailed contractor walk-through and phased renovation estimate are key.Have you considered checking city records for past permits to uncover any unaddressed issues?

I know for myself and other investors they have had situations where someone in the building department says something verbally but then when you go to get the permits or approval things have changed.
