Why are people so hot to buy in Belair Edison (Baltimore 21213)?

[Julie Hassett]

I own a property on Pelham Avenue in Belair-Edison. It's a neighborhood inside the 21213 zip code of Baltimore.

When I see property listings for other townhomes in Belair-Edison, the neighborhood is referred as "world-famous belair-edison neighborhood" and other such lofty phrases.

I get a postcard, text message, phone call or direct mail about once a week with offers to buy it from me.

I also own two properties less than a mile from there in 21214, which I get exactly zero calls on.

So, I'm wondering... why do investors want into this neighborhood so badly? What do they see happening there over the next 2, 5, 10 years?

Maybe I'm lacking vision, but I just can't fathom anything major changing in the area that would suddenly turn these places into goldmines.

I'd love to hear your insights if you have any. Thanks, BP.
