Investing in Baltimore

[Dulce Garcia]

I'm looking to start investing in Baltimore, what is the best way to learn about the market. Where should I start? I reached out to a couple agents. No response yet. Does anyone have any good advice or can recommendations (know someone ) for a newbie. Giving up is not an option!

Nothing beats spending a few days driving around the market. I suggest finding some listings that pique your interest and then doing some drive bys, and getting out to walk the neighborhood. You'll get a feel pretty quickly for if its a neighborhood/area/block you want to be investing in. You'll also need to firm your budget and financing, as that will control the neighborhood you're investing in more than anything. Good luck!
