With nearby comps supporting after-repair values (ARVs) of $70K–$85K, this property presents multiple exit strategies. Investors can continue as a buy-and-hold rental for stable income, particularly attractive for Section 8 repositioning (with market rents around $1,200–$1,400/month), or pursue a value-add renovation to capture resale upside.

This property is well-suited for investors seeking an affordable entry point into one of Philadelphia’s most actively redeveloping areas, balancing both immediate income and long-term appreciation potential.
