The Queen Village neighborhood in Philadelphia is a very desirable location for buyers. Queen Village is convenient to 1-95 and just a few blocks from Center City's dining and shopping. Spanning from Front to 6th, South to Washington, you can find everything from small homes, to huge townhouses, to a variety of condos in this area.

There has been real growth in Queen Village thanks in part to friendly, green, relaxed atmosphere. Lovely cobblestone streets and pocket parks are scattered throughout this neighborhood.

Some information on how Philly Condo Auctions Work.

Mark discusses what condominium builders and developers in Center City Philadelphia need to do to set their product apart. 

 

The Center City Condo buyer's wants and needs differ from those of a buyer in the suburbs. For example, large tubs and large kitchens are usually an inappropriate fit for condos in Philadelphia. Builders and developers should really tailor to the needs of the center city buyer by being more modern, hip, urban, and original...while not lacking in functionality.

To capture the attention of the Philly condo buyer, developers could perhaps invest in groovy designs (even hire an interior designer) to really build to their taste, capture their attention, and give them what they want!
