About This Home

529 Birch Street offers investors the opportunity to acquire 5 very well-maintained two bedroom, one bath townhomes units in the Pittsburgh suburb of New Kensington. All units have laundry hookups and dishwashers. Each unit also has a back patio. 529 Birch is an all electric property with the tenants paying electric (heat), water and sewer. Nestled along the Allegheny River just 18 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, New Kensington offers the best of both worlds—a quick under-30-minute drive down PA-28 puts you in the heart of downtown Pittsburgh, while “New Ken” itself delivers a tight-knit riverfront community with tree-lined streets, more affordable home values, and a charming hometown feel. With ongoing downtown revitalization and easy access to parks, the river, and nearby suburbs, it’s an ideal place to call home without sacrificing access to everything the city has to offer. With tenant-paid utilities, in-unit laundry, and well-maintained condition across all five townhomes, 529 Birch Street is a stable, income-producing addition to any portfolio—offering stable cash flow in a growing suburban market just minutes from Pittsburgh.
