It was a sizzling late afternoon in Philadelphia when we met up with first time home buyer, Kristen. We set out on a journey to find a property that she could call her own. We had already shown Kristen what her budget of $150,000 would get her in the neighborhood of Fishtown. Kristen, like many buyers, could afford a higher mortgage but wanted to stay under budget just to be safe. So, after our exploration of Fishtown where she saw a home she really liked, she was ready for round 2. We headed to South Philadelphia, in the neighborhood of Graduate Hospital, where a similarly priced 2 bedroom was waiting for us. With our mini camcorder in hand, and our client Kristen, being ready, willing, and very cool (I might add), let us shoot some candid footage of her tour of this Graduate Hospital home. We were curious to find out what our first time buyer's impression would be.
Would Kristen be wooed by Graduate Hospital's proximity to Rittenhouse Square and the subway?
How would the Fishtown property compare?
