Relocation opportunity. LA -> MD

I recently got an opportunity to relocate from LA to Maryland, more specifically just outside of Baltimore. Both job offers are the same monetary wise but I've heard that Maryland is low cost of living and my money would stretch further there. I plan on saving/investing and would eventually like to buy small multifamily homes to rent. I would greatly appreciate any input or insight on the Maryland area and I have never explored that area before. Thank you for reading and hope to hear feedback soon!

@Russell Brazil I typically see 4 bedroom homes for about 600k where-as 600k in LA would barely buy you a 2 bedroom :/

Are you familiar with the havre de grace or bel air area markets?


 Thats about an hour north of Baltimore. Middle of nowhere. Havre de grace might even be closer to Deleware than it is to Baltimore 


Bel Air and Havre de Grace are not "middle of nowhere". Bel Air is a thriving suburb, and Havre de Grace is a great little town with easy access to Aberdeen Proving Ground - one of the largest employers in Harford County. Our county hasn't experienced the trickle down influence of DC's largesse like Howard/Montgomery/PG/Anne Arundle, but that doesn't mean they aren't great places to live and invest.

Shoot me a PM if you want to talk more.
