By Josh McKnight | The McKnight Team After more than six years of construction, Ardmore's SEPTA station on the Main Line reopened on March 23. The project, which started with a $62 million budget and a two-and-a-half-year timeline, ran into a hidden oil tank, crumbling walls, a pandemic, and supply chain problems that stretched the work into 2026. The new station is fully ADA-compliant, with ramp and...
By Josh McKnight | The McKnight Team Cheltenham Township holds a position that very few communities in the Philadelphia suburbs can claim. It shares a direct border with the city of Philadelphia, sits inside Montgomery County, and connects to one of the most comprehensive SEPTA Regional Rail networks in the region. That combination of urban proximity, suburban character, and transit access creates a...
By Josh McKnight | The McKnight Team Hatboro Borough sits at the northern edge of Montgomery County, tucked between the bustle of the Route 611 corridor and the quieter residential streets that fan out from its historic downtown. It's the kind of place where a weekend morning walk puts you past a coffee shop, a hardware store, and a couple of locally owned restaurants before you've gone three blocks....
By Josh McKnight | The McKnight Team Buying a property at a Philadelphia Sheriff's sale is supposed to work like this: you bid, you win, you pay, and within 70 days the deed is recorded under state rules of civil procedure. That has not been happening. Under the current administration of Sheriff Rochelle Bilal, some buyers have been waiting more than a year for their deeds. At least two firms have now...

By Josh McKnight | The McKnight Team A 24-acre property along Route 202 in Doylestown Township just moved one step closer to becoming a luxury townhome community. The Doylestown Township Planning Commission voted 4-1 in March to recommend a zoning amendment that would allow Zaveta Custom Homes to build 36 townhomes on the historic Hart property, owned by the Bucks County Historical Society. The plan...
By Josh McKnight | The McKnight Team Automated warehouse company Exol has signed a lease for the entire South Penn Logistics Center at 2300 S. Pennsylvania Ave. in Morrisville, Bucks County — occupying 973,200 square feet in what ranks as one of the largest industrial leases in the Philadelphia region in recent years and the biggest industrial deal of 2026 so far. The facility, completed last year by...
By: Josh McKnight | The McKnight Team Two bills moving through Philadelphia City Council could significantly change the regulatory environment for rental properties in the city. The legislation, part of the Safe Healthy Homes Act introduced by Councilmember Nicolas O'Rourke, is scheduled for a final vote on March 19. If passed, the bills would expand tenant protections against retaliatory eviction and...
By Josh McKnight | The McKnight Team A developer bought a property in Plymouth Township for $17 million in 2024, proposed up to 200 apartments, got turned down, and is now planning a 24-hour gas station and convenience store. If that sequence sounds like a missed opportunity, you are reading it the same way a lot of people in this market are. The story is really about what happens when housing supply...
By Josh McKnight | The McKnight Team Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker included $10 million in her latest budget proposal to bring a modular housing factory to the city. It sounds like an unusual line item for a city budget.
