With 36+ years in the Lehigh Valley, 2,000+ clients served, and 700+ transactions, Tim Tepes knows Allentown.

Is it a good time to sell a home in Allentown?

Allentown's multi-billion-dollar Neighborhood Improvement Zone (NIZ) revitalization has transformed the downtown into one of the fastest-growing urban areas in Pennsylvania. The PPL Center arena, Class A office towers, STRATA luxury apartments, and new retail and dining options have driven a surge in buyer demand and rising property values across the city. Low housing inventory and strong employment growth mean sellers are in an excellent position to capitalize on Allentown's momentum.

Whether you own a row home in the Center City neighborhood, a single-family in the West End, or a property in one of Allentown's growing suburban corridors, now is the time to list. Tim Tepes has been selling Allentown homes for over 36 years and understands every neighborhood's unique value proposition.
