Hello! I will be moving to the D.C. area for a job in a few months. I am looking to invest in a property somewhere between Baltimore and D.C. I am looking at a single house purchase with a conventional loan for about 400k. I will be house hacking. Does anyone have any recomendations on strategy, zip codes, and neighborhoods? I did a micro analysis to understand crime rates, poverty rates, and college education. I've yet to do a rent yield which is most important but anyways here are the top 5 zip codes using the data I found. 

spencerville, md
elkridge, md
odenton, md
greenbelt, md
laurel, md

Those are all great areas most of those I would have recommended anyway. The other super hot areas right now are Hyattsville, Riverdale, College Park, Brentwood MD and Columbia. Just depends on price point and what your looking for as far as being closer to D.C. vs Baltimore and Urban Vs Suburban. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
