Hi Sal. This is my first post on BP. 

Nice to meet you.

Me and my partner have a contracting business that also does gut rehabs in the city. We are interested in learning different successful real estate investing practices in Baltimore. We are very familiar with our zip code - 21202 area - but would love to learn about other neighborhoods in Baltimore city and about rental strategies around town.

Where does rent court take place?
