Baltimore - crime is rental area

[Andrea McCants]

My husband and I own a few rental properties in Baltimore (fairly newbie investors).

The tenant in one of our properties has been calling us lately complaining about drug dealers on her block. She doesn't want to call 311. I even offered to call 311 for her; she just needs to tell me when but she's scared.

Yesterday she asked if we can put a high fence up for her; we're researching, but looks like it won't be allowed.

I'm starting to lose sleep over this and wanted to know if any has experienced this and how best to handle.

Thanks
