Philadelphia Area
Own vs Rent Trends
A higher share of owner-occupied homes often reflects stronger long-term ties to the community, since homeowners are more likely to stay in one place and invest in their neighborhoods. By contrast, areas with a larger renter population may be more transient, offering flexibility but sometimes less stability in housing markets.
It could also be an indication of market health, as affordable markets often have higher owner-occupancy rates.
The home listing price-to-income ratio in the Philadelphia area is 4.4
The ratio compares how expensive homes are in Philadelphia relative to household income. A higher ratio means homes cost more compared to what people earn.
A healthy price-to-income ratio is generally around 3 times your household's annual income (or less), but higher ratios can be sustainable depending on your rate, DTI, and more.

Pending Homes-for-Sale %
Percentage of Homes Sold per Month
This chart shows the percentage of homes that sold each month, highlighting buyer demand and long-term market trends. In most markets, around 20% of listings selling each month is considered balanced. Higher percentages point to a strong sellers' market, while lower percentages indicate more favorable conditions for buyers.
Largest overall VA lender (purchase and refinance) for six of the last nine years.
More VA purchase loans than any other lender for the past nine consecutive years
Over the last five years, Veterans United made more VA purchase loans than USAA, Navy Federal Credit Union, Rocket Mortgage, Wells Fargo and Freedom Mortgage combined.
Most Veterans don't realize how little money it can take to buy a home. Many think it's out of reach, especially with lower approval amounts, but it's possible. Helping them understand options like seller concessions is one of the most rewarding parts of the job.
Paul D.Veterans United Network Realty Agent
In the Philadelphia market, VA buyers often see the most success on homes priced between $200,000 and $400,000, especially those that have been listed for 20 days or more. That's when you're more likely to negotiate and secure favorable terms.
Alexander S.Veterans United Network Realty Agent
In northeast Pennsylvania markets like Bushkill, Hawley, and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, homes often receive multiple offers and can go under contract in just a day or two. VA buyers who are preapproved and prepared to act quickly are in the best position to compete.
