Rarity in the News!

We are thrilled that our CEO, Jim Roche, has been featured in a Realtor.com article about the Top 10 Walkable Cities With Affordable Homes Priced Below $450K.

 

In the Article Jim explores the dynamic real estate landscape of Philadelphia. As the largest city in Pennsylvania, Philadelphia offers a unique blend of history, culture, and modern living, making it an attractive destination for homebuyers and investors alike.

 

Philadelphia, with its median list price of $289,000, offers homes that are 35% below the national median, making it an affordable choice for many. With a population of 1.6 million, it's a bustling metropolis with a grid layout and extensive public transit system, offering easy access to its vibrant neighborhoods and historic sites.

 

Jim Roche highlights Philadelphia's unique position as a "major metro market, smack-dab right between Washington, DC, and New York City." Despite its proximity to these major cities, Philadelphia maintains its own identity as a "tight, compact city with a ton of energy."
