Get ‘em while you can

There’s no doubt that Fishtown’s real estate market has been on fire for the past couple of years. The neighborhood, once an area of Philly that folks rarely ventured into, has been ripe with development up and down Frankford Avenue, and in 2015 it was named the most competitive neighborhood for homebuyers.

With all of its popularity, it’s no wonder that people are flocking to Fishtown, buying and building properties left and right. But while there are pricey properties inching toward the $800K+ club, there are still plenty of homes that are pretty affordable.

Here are 10 of the most affordable properties for sale right now in Fishtown, starting with a 2-bedroom, 1-bath home for $139,900. (You can click on the address and see inside each of the properties.)

The number crunchers at Neighborhood X found that on a per square foot basis, the prices range from $167/square foot to $202/square foot.

Overall, the average price per square foot in Fishtown is $211 per square foot. Meanwhile, its neighboring Kensington still has some of the most affordable properties in all of Philly, so if you’re really looking for a bargain you might want to start there.
