Selling a Tired Rental Property in Conshohocken

Conshohocken's older rowhomes and twins are a natural fit for rentals. They also come with small lots, steep streets and tight interiors that make repairs awkward. Our city record lists tired rentals among the borough's common situations. The borough requires a residential rental license every year, and each turnover can mean another permit.

What’s different in Conshohocken

The annual license

Conshohocken's page says owners of rental properties must submit an application on or before April 15 of each calendar year for a residential rental license permit. A separate application is required for each property, and renewals are yearly. Every application gets an initial inspection by the borough's Rental Property Inspector, followed by bi-annual inspections. Rental houses also need house numbers on the front and rear before a license is issued or renewed. Keep your permit dates in one place: the April 15 license, each inspection and each use and occupancy permit. A buyer will ask for them, and a missing permit is easier to resolve before a closing date is set than after.

What counts as a rental, and what a change of tenant triggers

The borough defines a rental as any house, townhouse, row house, duplex, twin, apartment or condominium from which the owner earns income, with occupancy of 30 days or more. Its use and occupancy form says a permit is needed each time a tenant changes, and that an application may also be filed for a sale or transfer. Ask the borough what the buyer must do after a sale. If a tenant has left, ask the borough whether a new use and occupancy permit is needed before you sell. Do not assume that the old permit carries over. A quick call with the Rental Property Inspector can save an awkward delay.

Tax and title

Pennsylvania lists net gains from the sale of property in its income tax guide, so a rental sale can mean state tax. The federal home sale exclusion is for a main home, so it does not fit a rental. The state realty transfer tax also applies to a taxable deed, and the contract can say who pays. A CPA should run depreciation and gain before you compare offers. If your buyer will keep the building as a rental, the new owner will have to apply under the borough's rules. Share the status of your license with the buyer so the application starts from a clear record.

How Kaizen can help

Send the address, the number of units and the rent. We look at the property as it stands and quote cash with the repairs counted for you. Compare the number with an agent's estimate after commission and make-ready costs. Rowhomes are often tighter to work on than owners expect.

Tenant notices, deposits and lease questions go to a landlord-tenant attorney. Give us each lease end date and we will propose a closing that does not collide with a move-out. You can call or text Kaizen Home Buyers at 267-329-0084.
