I'm going to follow this to see what tips folks provide.MikeHey Mike, I am actively investing there so feel free to reach out with any questions!   

I don't want to violate any of the self-promotion rules on this thread by specifically linking or name-dropping, but it's from a data analytics platform I am working on specifically built for tracking construction, debt, and ownership activity in the Philadelphia region.I will be posting more detailed insights soon. 

For example, I've had a couple of 3+ bedrooms sit for a longer period of time because they only had one parking space available (and no on-street options nearby).

Unlike some buyers, I ALWAYS go look at the properties before the sale and discovered that the vacant lot had an active railroad track on it and therefore was unbuildable, and would remain unbuildable until the railroad removed their track. 

Agree with others that you will probably need to lower the rent - suggest 5% every 2-4 weeks until activity picks up. 

I will update my reports to federal law enforcement about these activities once I have completed debunking all of his new claims.

However, if you don't know the layout here, it's best to get with those that do as properties change street by street and sometimes even on the same street.

Plus the street isn't a busy one.  

@Joshua MiddletonI am very familiar with that street, good friend used to rent Long term on it for about 7 years.
