Areas to invest in Baltimore?

[Jacob Beg]

Hi All:

I am looking for recommendations on desirable areas in or around Baltimore. Any particular cities, towns or subdivisions that are in high demand for buyers and renters. For example, what are some of the areas that are considered safe, clean and have good schools. I am looking for better yields and the real estate value is cheap enough or at least much cheaper than NOVA. Thanking you all in advance.

That is a very tough question when you don't really know Baltimore.  checkout the Live Baltimore website to learn about the neighborhoods and get the statistics on the renter percentage vs ownership percentage.  

I live in Prince George's County and cheap is relative.  You can find a 1000sqft fixer upper with structural damage for $275k.  It's much more expensive than Baltimore but cheaper than Montgomery County, Anne Arundel County and Northern Virginia
