Houses That We Bought in Philadelphia
Our projects show how we buy houses in Philly and what we do next.
We bought this house in Philadelphia
3301 W Allegheny Ave is a triplex that we bought in Philadelphia right up the road from the Brotherly Love Real Estate office. There are 3 total units in this property. However, against our usual house buying strategies, this building has 2 units that are commercial. Both units are in the hair business. To avoid overlap, one is a barbershop and the other is a hair salon. We do our best to buy houses in Philadelphia when the numbers make sense. My partner and I were able to help this homeowner sell his property that he owned for several years. He didn’t have to do any repairs before selling his property to us.
We bought this house 3112 N Taylor St
Dive into the details of our renovation project in Allegheny West that we took on in 2019. The seller of this home was moving out and needed to selling her house fast. We were able to close quickly, which allowed her flexibility to move on her own schedule. Here, we review the complete renovation process of this house we bought in Philadelphia on Taylor Street. The repairs were extensive, but we got through it. You can view before and after photos of this single-family home project. Additionally, we review repairs estimations and budget on this process.
Inherited House 323 E Claremont Rd, Philadelphia
This house in Northeast Philly was a potential house flip that we came across. It needed a ton of renovations, including a full gut of the kitchen. Since we buy houses in Philadelphia as-is, this property got our team excited since we knew we could add value to the home through repairs. The house was going through the probate process in Philly, and the family was trying to determine their timeline to sell. Although we did not end up buying this one, Brotherly Love Real Estate can help you with situations like this. Our team bases the timeline to buy the house around the homeowner. We are able to close as soon or far out as you need, and work around your family’s timeline.
We helped this landlord deal with evicting a tenant
This homeowner was dealing with bad tenants at 2246 E Clearfield Street. The single-family home is located in Port Richmond. We bought this house in Philadelphia. The landlord was forced to go through the eviction process in Philadelphia. Since this happen in 2019, the landlord was able to go through the eviction process and relieve himself of the bad tenant. We were able to buy the house after and get the landlord out of the situation he was dreading. He did not want to go through the process of finding another tenant based on his last experience.
