Hopefully some of these prices drop. Crappy homes in south philly going for 400k

Totally agree.

Yeah I’m hoping to buy next fall. Looking in grad hospital/point breeze. I love south philly

Yeah I was hoping things would get cheaper, but I’m not so sure.

It will probably get more affordable in a year. It usually takes a relatively long time for the price of homes to adjust to poor market conditions

A buddy of mine primarily sells in Philly. He also does a lot of cool flips. Check out his insta ilovephillyhomes. Good guy, but I like the style of his homes.
