About This Home
Investor Opportunity in West Philly!
Welcome to 5148 Brown Street, a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home located in one of Philadelphia’s fastest-growing neighborhoods. This property is currently tenant-occupied with rental income coming in through the Section 8 program, offering dependable cash flow from day one.
While the rent is currently under market value, there’s real potential here for future upside. The long-term tenant has been in place for several years, which means stability, though the home itself could benefit from cosmetic updates down the line. The property is being sold as-is, and interior showings can be scheduled via Showing Time.
This block is seeing new investment and development, and the home is close to schools, shopping, and public transit—making it a solid choice for investors looking to buy and hold in a high-demand area. With a little vision, this could be a great addition to your portfolio.
