Baltimore County Section 8
What are some of the areas in Baltimore County, Maryland that make sense to do Section 8 housing in? We gut renovated our properties, so we are looking for distressed houses in the 35K-50K range, and then put another 30k into the rehab.

Cory, to label everyone in section 8 "drug addicts" is a downright lie and ignorant. Most of the people I meet are just trying to get out of a bad situation financially and need a little help. What do you think would happen in this country if people weren't housed and had to live on the street cause they couldn't afford opportunities that most of us had growing up? Take a trip to parts of the country of India where they don't have social welfare systems. You can't go out at night, and everything outside your property is disgusting. Also, unless your in the top 1% who pay just about 50% of taxes in the country, then your not paying that much, so stop complaining.
