Good luck on your journey man. 

Well worth the commission to find a good deal or stay away from a bad one. 

Is the roof good? 

What really matters is how long you think you will have this loan. 

I have some guesses as to what the problem may be, but I need a good, investor-friendly plumber. 

What im hoping to gain from this group is knowledge i cant find anywhere else, i hope to meet people that i can help and people that can help me, I hope i can form good friendships on here, and i hope to find my first rental.

We always need more good people doing this so best of luck to you!

Long time investor/landlord in NC and SC, let know if you have any questions?

Depending on your flavor, this could be good or bad.Connect with a great property manager early on, as many won't work just any property in any part of the City.Being an east coast city, our housing stock is fairly old and unless it's been properly rehabbed, will have typical "old house" maintenance.None of this is meant to discourage you from investing in multi units in Baltimore, but I'd try to set realistic expectations about the market here.TLDR; we have a wide variety of "multi-unit" structures in Baltimore.

Good luck, Its a dangerous game.
