FYI...On March 22, 2021, the Baltimore City Council passed legislation that mandates changes to all residential leases and impacts when late fees may be imposed.Specifically, the law, entitled “Late Fees for Past Due Rent,” provides that “a residential lease shall include a provision that the landlord may not apply late fees to the rent until the tenant is more than 10 days past due with the rent.”As drafted, the above provision is required to be included on all residential leases in Baltimore City, whether or not a late fee is actually contemplated by the lease unless a statutory exemption from the lease requirements applies, e.g., it does not apply to leases for rental units within an owner-occupied residence.If a residential landlord seeks to impose a late fee for delayed or nonpayment of rent, the lease:must include a provision that prohibits a landlord from applying a penalty fee for late payment of rent until:(i) The tenant’s payment of the rent is more than 10 days late; or(ii) The tenant has received the tenant’s regularly scheduled government benefit disbursement if the tenant has previously provided the landlord with written notice that shows the day of the month the government benefit is normally issued or mailed is later than the day on which the rent is due.The Late Fees for Past Due Rent Law, which was signed by Mayor Brandon Scott on March 31, 2021 and becomes effective on April 30, 2021, only applies prospectively to new leases and shall not have retroactive effect on leases entered into prior to April 30, 2021.

@Matt Orchulli The added benefit of working with a local lawyer is you also get to build a relationship with legal council.

That board and the Metro Council would need to finalize the deal.

Every Greek family in the USA was having war councils in 2015, trying to figure out who could mortgage what so we could keep our people going back in the old country.It was that experience that made me give up on teaching and go whole hog into real estate.

At the very least I can council you through the current buying climate. 

My role is just to do the leg work and find a developer that can navigate and create a profitable project under an affordable housing incentive program passed by our city council to incentives private development of affordable housing rentals on qualified parcels of which my owner has one(sorry I think that was a run on sentence)

Mayor Todd Gloria Wednesday signed into law an ordinance capping short-term vacation rentals at 1% of the city’s housing supply and prioritizing “good actors” in a lottery to determine who gets to offer properties for whole-home vacation rentals.The San Diego City Council passed the ordinance 8-1 on April 6.
