Up and coming neighborhoods to flip a house in 2025?

[Anna Zimmerman]

Hello everyone!

I was on here pre-pandemic when I tried the STR market. I've realized I need more passive options, and have moved to a syndication and private lending.

However I have a contractor who I’m considering partnering with who wants to buy and flip homes in Baltimore. I would provide the capital and otherwise stay passive, but hopefully grab better profits than private lending?

however I’m not familiar with Baltimore. I’ve been starting my research by seeing what is being bought and what is on the market, and live nearby so would like to check out neighborhoods, but am wondering which neighborhoods I should invest in? I’m thinking 50k capital-

Also- is there a tax lien sale to buy properties in Baltimore? I found an auction person, and I see listings online. But am wondering if I can buy directly from the city.

Thanks in advance!
