Bethlehem, PA lies in the center of the beautiful Lehigh Valley, at the eastern end of Pennsylvania. It was founded as a mission community on Christmas Eve of 1741. In the following years, Bethlehem continued to prosper and expand. We built the first public water-works in America in 1762, and became well known for steel production during the Industrial Revolution. The Bethlehem Steel Corporation was once the second-largest steel producer in the United States and among the largest shipbuilding companies in the world - the I-beam was invented here! The steel corporation remained a leading symbol of America's dominance in the industrial manufacturing field until closing its doors in 1995.
Bethlehem, PA is a wonderful place to live. The city is experiencing an uptick in economic activity; with the revitalization of the old Bethlehem Steel Mill into the Sands Casino Resort Bethlehem, symbolizing Bethlehem's revitalization, tourists and businesses are making their way here. We are a community of friends from all walks of life who keep in touch with our hardworking roots. Residents of Bethlehem enjoy a variety of activities in a close-knit community with plenty of career opportunities and the lowest crime rate in the area.
Sometimes, owning a home isn’t the right choice or isn't the top priority. Renting an apartment provides many benefits financially and for your lifestyle. Some of the top advantages to renting and living in an apartment building include:
- No Maintenance & Repair Costs: Part of the eases of living in apartment buildings is that you don’t have to worry about paying upfront for maintenance and repairs. The complex is responsible for when the laundry machines break and keeping the property clean, so additionally, you don’t have to worry about keeping the outside clean, either.
- Amenities: Apart from apartment buildings and rental properties providing appliances, complexes often also provide access to amenities, such as gyms, pools, and outdoor spaces for residents to enjoy. These come at no additional cost to you, and the complex maintains them as well.
- Flexibility:
One of the key reasons that someone might choose a rental property over homeownership is the flexibility to move easier and faster. Selling a home can be a tedious process, compared to moving from apartment to apartment, which often allows you more choice in the size of your living space and location preference.
- Lower Utility Costs: Rental properties and apartments are typically cheaper to heat in the winter, keep cool in the summer, and provide electricity to due to their smaller size compared to an entire house.
