Looks really nice. Seems you’re not going to get anything around Passyunk for much less, unless you want to DYI (which seems like the best option).
Makes me really appreciate when I bought. I’m on the east side of broad about the same distance from EPA. bought in 2011 when the market was bottomed out. Brand new renovation with all new everything and 2000 space of livable space for $232K. I can’t believe a home that is more than half the size is going for almost 70K more than what I paid
Keep note that the list price doesn’t necessarily equate to the sale price. I’ve seen plenty of homes this year sit on the market for long periods of time because the listing agent has severely overpriced the house (maybe bullied by the overzealous seller?). Every few weeks the list price decreases until they end up selling it for less than they originally could have 6 months before because people are wondering what’s wrong for it to be sitting on the market for so long.
Moral of the story: Don’t believe these over-priced houses are necessarily representative of the actual market. Look at the sale prices.
And….less than 30 days later, under contract. So, we’ll soon see how “overpriced” it was. My guess, not so much.
