Philly is Super Bowl-Bound! Plus, Pro Tips on Renting in the City
Take it from us, Philly is a great place to live – the joy at the Linc and on Broad Street and at Cottman and Frankford Avenues on Sunday night after the Eagles’ NFC championship victory is evidence of that. Today Trenae Nuri talks about heading to the Super Bowl and then replays a show about how it may be wonderful to live here (especially when we’re winning), finding an affordable place to rent is a growing challenge. Our rent is too damn high – and getting higher. So Trenae talks with Justin Forte, realtor for KW Empower & ForteLiving, about where to find the best rentals, what questions to ask, what you should know before signing your lease agreement, and how to avoid scams.
