I love doing roundups of homes that don’t cost an arm and a leg. While it’s true that Center City homes can be pretty pricey, it’s simply not accurate to say that there aren’t deals to be had. I was browsing homes newly listed this morning, and found a trio of likely nests, all with a great price tag – under $300k apiece, and all listed in the past week. If you have been looking for a bargain, one of these could be just the home for you!
