I’m happy to share my perspective on communities and home types in the area.

@Samantha Bartlett we've got a lot of PM info on our wesbite, which I cannot list as BP Moderators will delete this post.

There are plenty of great deals on the MLS.

I am a lender in Baltimore and live here as well, just curios, what street was this on?

You have to be ready to make 3-6 months of payments on the mortgage yourself after they stop while you try to foreclose/evict them.

They require you to elaborate on draw requests and basically lay it out for them which can make the process very frustrating.

I told them that I work with real estate investors that would be able to help them and put some money in their pocket to help them with their crushing debt and bills so they wont go into foreclosure on both houses How did you finance this deal?

Additionally, many properties on MLS in need of rehab are in C-/D class neighborhoods which I have no interest in living/owning in (at least starting off). 

I am still somewhat of a novice, but I'm excited to contribute and learn with you all on this platform. 

Just shop around online, look for properties similar to yours, add them to favorites and watch them to see how long it takes for them to rent.
