Rental properties in Baltimore city

[Kristopher Lamy]

So I’m a newbie. I’m looking to purchase a rental property in Baltimore City but I’m not sure what neighborhoods/zip codes i should focus on. Baltimore City is a tricky place when it comes to real estate and i want a property that’s going to retain its value or better. If you are familiar with the area any advice will be appreciated

Are you local to Baltimore? If so, you'll definitely want to drive the neighborhoods and blocks to get a feel of what is really going on. Trulia, crime reports, spot crime all have some decent info on high crime areas.

I own some property in Baltimore and can provide some additional guidance if you want to shoot me a PM.
