About this home
Excellent investment opportunity in highly desirable Northeast Philadelphia! This solid 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers strong potential for both cash flow and future appreciation.
The home features three bedrooms and one full bath upstairs, plus a private driveway that fits up to two cars. Property is being sold as-is, cash only, and for investors. Tenants currently occupy the property; therefore, no interior showings are available due to lack of tenant cooperation.
According to the seller, the property is fully functional with all systems working properly, except for the hot water heater. Tenants currently use window A/C units, and there are no known roof or plumbing leaks.
Homes in this area are selling for about $350,000, providing a strong profit margin for investors seeking to renovate and flip. With the right updates, the property can easily reach resale values in that range or higher. After renovation, the home will qualify for popular Philadelphia loan programs, including Philly First and PHFA, offering future buyers a 5% forgivable loan and a preferred interest rate — a major selling advantage.
Prime access to Academy Road, Roosevelt Blvd, and I-95, with convenient routes to downtown Philadelphia and nearby suburbs. Close to public transportation, schools, shopping centers, parks, cafeterias, and restaurants. Minutes from Neshaminy Mall, Franklin Mills, YMCA, Rt. 1, and Rt. 63.
Nearby are multiple playgrounds, recreation centers, and green spaces including the wooded areas of Modena Park and Run Woods. Medical facilities such as Temple University Hospital, Northeastern Hospital, and Einstein Medical Center are approximately 10–20 minutes away. The Northeast Philadelphia Airport is located just a few miles east, while Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) is about 40–50 minutes away.
This is a rare investor package deal in a sought-after neighborhood with strong market demand and high resale potential — a perfect choice for professional investors looking to buy below market value and maximize returns.
