I co-own a Hair Salon-Tattoo Shop (which we completely remodeled from a doctors office to our Salon on our own) and I am a tattoo artist. 

Happy shopping.

Gus tore down all those houses where they built that shopping center near Aramingo & Girard, where Pep Boys is.

@William Deltoro  now your talking  find your money partner first then go shopping... makes you  a much stronger candidate to get the deal...

The credit hit that your credit will take is lumped into one inquiry (Source-last paragraph) so that you can shop around for the best terms etc.You don't want to be in the position to find a great place on a Friday afternoon at 5:00 PM just to have to wait until Monday to even submit for financing.  

It is within walking distance, of the most iconic historic sites in Philly, as well as restaurants, nightclubs, shopping, and the Delaware waterfront. 

At that price point, I don't think you are going to have tenants who are going to want to shop around and make you an offer.Also, being in Ohio, make sure you do this during a good time to rent.

Shop around for everything.

My brother would like it to either put a house or a shop there.

Most likely the value of the property is a lot more than the value of a car.Comparison shop with title companies and offer to pay the title company related costs.
