Speaking of rentals in Philly, there's a channel on youtube, 'Airbnb Automated' where Sean explains how to do rental arbitrage: rent homes and then host them as STRs (short term rentals). Sounds like he has lots of places in Philly and is considering getting out of some. Maybe he can help Fran find something, maybe in return for Fran making him some security devices.
In this video, Sean mentions regulations in Philly are changing on Apr 1, 2022. That may make it harder to host STRs which could bring some extra long term rentals to the market soon.
