Oaklyn's main street is the White Horse Pike...which is just too big and industrial to really get that small town feel.

The property is on west chester pike and is a blk from darby road (border of havertown and UD)

I'm afraid of heights - even flunked Pike's Peak :oops: Aside of needing to go to the loo, what if I want a drink refill?

Many people either a) don't have a down payment or b) don't want to spend/invest into a house because of the uncertainty...which creates a perfect storm for Buy & Hold Investors & rents will steadily increase.All in all, I'm looking forward to several more deals coming down the pike, just missed out on 2 SFR but picked up another Duplex.

@Gwen Pike,I think you got some good advice from @Danny Webber.

While there is great money to be made in many of these areas, it's a lot more risky because you don't know what's coming down the pike in the form of regulation, occupancy requirements or outright bans.

Is there any big ticket repairs coming down the pike?

While I understand realistically anything this distance from Boston is tough because market prices are so inflated in the suburbs like Natick, Wellsley etc, you can do big things a little further out near Worcester, which is pretty up and coming, and in the worst case, you're a 45-1h drive down the Pike to your investment.
