Description
Located in Philadelphia's dynamic Temple University Hospital District, this expansive property at 1810 W. Tioga Street is a prime canvas for the right investor. This is not a turnkey solution—it's a rare "value-add" opportunity for an experienced professional to transform a diamond in the rough into a high-yield, multi-unit income producer. Property Highlights: Massive Footprint: With approximately 2,808 square feet of interior living space on a generous 2,332 square foot lot, this property offers significant room to reconfigure and expand. High-Potential Basement: The property boasts a very high basement, a key feature that allows for a legal conversion into an additional apartment. This is a game-changer for maximizing rental income. Ideal for Conversion: Current zoning records indicate the property has a "Residential Single-family Attached" (RSA-5) designation, but it is also noted as "RES-ROW CONVERTED TO APARTMENT." The existing structure is a triplex. This suggests the potential for a savvy investor to work with the city's zoning regulations to expand the number of units, potentially up to a four-unit building, subject to proper permitting and city approval. Prime Location: Situated in the Temple University Hospital District, the area is a magnet for students, medical professionals, and support staff, ensuring a strong and consistent demand for quality rental housing. Lucrative Market: The Philadelphia multi-family market is experiencing robust growth, with strong occupancy rates and rising rents. This is the perfect time to capitalize on a market that offers a compelling balance of affordability and strong returns compared to other major East Coast cities. The Vision: Imagine a four-unit building, where each thoughtfully renovated apartment commands a competitive market rate. With the high basement converted into a legal living space, you can significantly increase your gross rental income. This property is perfect for a "buy-and-hold" strategy, where you can benefit from both a consistent cash flow and long-term appreciation in a rapidly developing area. This is a project for a confident investor who understands: The process of navigating Philadelphia's permitting and zoning for multi-unit conversions. The value of strategic renovations to maximize rental yields. The significant return on investment that comes with breathing new life into a large, well-located property. Don't miss this chance to add a valuable asset to your portfolio and create a lasting income stream. Schedule your showing today and start planning your next great investment.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
