It sounds like you are an investor. If so, you can purchase homes to be rented or you can fix up and put back on the market. Some communities, however, limit the number of Rentals in a particular area by following their HOA bylaws. In most instances, you can feel secure in buying, fixing up. and selling. Condominium Communities are usually more particular about Investors buying in their communities. If you need an Experienced agent to market your properties, please contact me at 678-579-8366.... more
Philly is like any place else in the world you don't have to be afraid, you just have to watch your back. The best way to check the area out is to drive around and see for yourself go different times of the day and night to see if there's any unusual activity.
If you have any questions please feel free to call 267-979-5497

As a long time Richmond resident, I wouldn't feel unsafe living there but it's still an up and coming area. I'd guess around 30-40% of the row homes have been renovated as opposed to the Fan and Museum District where it's close to 80-90%. 300 W Marshall Street is a just a few blocks from Broad & Grace Streets where there are coffee shops, art galleries, top notch restaurants, music venues, and theaters. If you are new to city life and not buying, I'd try to find a place in the Fan or Museum District because it's very close to all of the restaurants and attractions, but you'll be a little safer at night.

How odd! Maybe it is a typo? You can contact the listing agent who will be able to help you learn more about that specific property (and probably will know a lot about similar properties in the area). To find an agent, just click on the yellow button on the property's Trulia listing and you will be able to start a dialogue.
Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can help with anything else. I am happy to be a resource for you. Good luck with the search!
Best,
