This 4-bed, 1-bath, 1,920 sqft single-family home in West Powelton, Philadelphia is priced around $171K. Looking at comps, nearby similar homes of comparable size have valuations from roughly $183K to $230K, with recent sales in the area ranging widely—some hitting above $250K, others much lower. The average price per sqft in the best flips is over $230, while this property is currently at about $89/sqft. There’s a notable gap here, which suggests under-market pricing—but the single bath and older build could be limiting factors.
If you’re considering a flip, focus on adding value through updates—especially adding a second bath, since comps with more baths fetch higher prices. Even basic cosmetic upgrades could help, but don’t over-improve for the area. For homeowners, minor renovations or even just cleaning and staging could boost appeal and push value closer to what nearby homes are getting. Just keep an eye on renovation costs and the local buyer pool.
