Multi-Family House Hacking in Philadelphia

[Tom Callahan]

I currently own a SFH in Philly and am looking to kickstart my foray into REI by renting it out and house hacking a multi-family property (up to 4 units). My plan is to find a property that is 3 years old or less so I can take advantage of the remaining tax abatement. Looking for any tips or insight into the multi-family market. Primary neighborhood targets are Fishtown, Francisville/Brewerytown, or anywhere in South Philly. Thanks in advance.
