Did you know…

There’s already a neighborhood called Brewertytown, but Northern Liberties could’ve once staked a claim to that name!! Pictured here is the famous Schmidt’s Brewery, that at its peak produced over a BILLION bottles a year!! 🤯 OMG, think of the hangover!

But did you know that today, some of you might live there? That’s right, today the Schmidt’s Brewery site is home to the Piazza, with some of the original buildings still standing near Laurel St.

Has anyone ever had a Schmidt’s b**r? Did your dad drink ‘em when you were a kid? Do you live at the Piazza now?

Will today's tax bill be tomorrow's?

Check the current assessment and taxable amount with Philadelphia's Office of Property Assessment, and billing with the Department of Revenue. For any abatement or exemption, verify the time left, scheduled changes and whether you'd qualify. For a future purchase, ask a lender or closing team to estimate taxes and escrow (money set aside for taxes) from those details, not the advertised monthly payment. Leave room for future tax changes.

I'd love to talk about your Philly home search.

Fall prep starts with where the water goes.

• Before freezing weather, have a professional safely check and clear gutters, downspouts and any roof-deck drains.
• Disconnect garden hoses and ask a plumber how to winterize your specific outdoor faucets.
• After rain, note new basement moisture or stains. Document recurring issues for professional evaluation.
• Find and label the main water shutoff. Ask a plumber about old or unfamiliar valves instead of forcing them.

Still living in your home? Plan for showings, not spotless days.

• Before listing, agree with an agent on workable showing hours and notice.
• Quick reset: clear counters and paths, turn on lights and plan where pets will go.
• Secure medications, valuables, personal paperwork and identifying information.
• Confirm how bookings, entry and feedback work, plus condo building access rules.

Thinking of selling? I'd be happy to talk through a showing plan.

Finding houses and opening doors is only part of what I do.

The real work begins once a home is under contract. I'm tracking the agreement's deadlines, helping verify deposit instructions by phone, and following up on inspections. I coordinate with the lender and closing team on appraisal, title work, the final walkthrough and closing plans.
For my rowhome and condo buyers, the agreement sets the pace, not a generic timeline.

A strong offer is exciting. But how much would you actually keep?

For a rowhome or condo, start with a realistic price, then account for the mortgage payoff, negotiated fees, taxes and closing adjustments. Compare offer terms and estimated net, not price alone.
I bring local knowledge to the details beyond the price.

Want to talk through an estimated seller net sheet? I’m happy to help.

Before you buy in Philly, give your daily routine a test run.

• Try your commute at your usual hour, including the trip home.
• Walk to groceries and transit. Picture returning with bags.
• Read parking signs for hours, permits and restrictions.
• Revisit on a weekday and weekend. Notice traffic and sounds.
• Check the entrance, stairs and storage for groceries, a bike or deliveries.

Two apartments, two rent prices. Which one really costs less?

Ask for monthly and move-in costs in writing, then compare the full lease term. Swipe for a simple example of why lower rent isn't always the lower total.
I've called Fishtown home for 15+ years, and I bring that local perspective to rental searches.

That monthly condo fee is only one part of the picture. What else would you want to know before making an offer?

Ask for the fee breakdown, budget and building rules, then confirm how parking, insurance and financing work. I look at the building as closely as the unit when helping people compare Philly condos.

That Philly multifamily looks good on paper. What happens when you check behind the rent number?

Compare leases and payments with the advertised rent, then look at operating costs and future repairs. Before treating the unit count as settled, I'd check city records and talk with the right professionals. Vacancy and financing deserve a second look, too.

If a small multifamily catches your eye, I'd be glad to talk through what to check.
