The case

The city's steadiest rental play - Penn, Drexel, and major hospital systems keep demand active through the school year and beyond, with smaller multifamily offering the clearest path to steady rent.

Risks

Heavy student-and-medical turnover and older stock; verify rental-license, lead-certification, and leasing rules. High-volume turnover makes remote ownership management-intensive - a local manager is effectively required.

Best for

Cash-flow investors who want the city's most reliable university-and-medical demand and will use professional management.
