In this week’s episode of Broker’s Blueprint, Nick and Martino break down exactly how to identify emerging real estate markets in Philadelphia—and how to protect yourself when investing in them.
They cover:
✅ Why areas like Kingsessing, Grays Ferry, and Port Richmond are heating up
✅ The 3 key data points to watch: permits, population, and absorption rate
✅ How Philly’s zoning laws and tax abatements are shaping future development
✅ The power of building a local team—brokers, attorneys, contractors, and bankers
✅ Red flags to watch during due diligence and how to negotiate with confidence
Whether you're buying your first investment property or scaling your portfolio, this episode gives you the playbook to make smart, data-driven moves in high-upside markets.
