Renting in Philadelphia

Philadelphia's housing is mostly rowhouses: only about 9% of homes are single-family detached, per the U.S. Census Bureau's 2020–2024 American Community Survey, and about 48% of occupied homes are rented. The city's rental license matters more than most. It's renewed every year, and an owner without a valid license can't collect rent or evict for the period they were unlicensed. Homes built before 1978 need lead certification from a certified inspector to get the license, and half the city's homes were built before 1950. Since July 2026, owners who don't live in Philadelphia must also name a local agent with a physical Philadelphia address.

“Excellent experience with Nomad! The Nomad team made the entire leasing process effortless — from the photo shoot and listing to finding a great tenant. They were responsive, professional and always just an email or text away. The results were impressive: 18 inquiries, 8 showings, multiple applications and a signed lease within 24 hours of the first showing.”
