Some food for thought:-Philly is more affordable than NYC, DC, and Boston-More and more people are beginning to work remotely -Projects may be funded by 1031 exchanges in Qualified Opportunity Zones-In 2018, the homeownership rate in Philadelphia was 52.7% according to the United States Census Bureau -Currently, inventory for Single Family houses in Philadelphia is low-In 2019, the average household income in Philly was $64,838 according to Esri
