Mind you in Baltimore you will be limited to doing things like painting, tile, demo, framing, cabinets, etc.

Kitchen and bath addition, full demo and reno of another bath, reno of remainder of house.

I can do al lthe demo for $7,500.

I do a lot of work in Midtown with some borderline areas- but am targeting the hipster and low level white collar demo. 

It is a hard money foreclosure already gutted with Demo, Framing, Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing done.

Even the HOA is being super nice and helpful bc they are so glad to have a good owner and someone actively fixings the home's many issues A neighbor told me that the home was INFESTED with RATS, and we are finding evidence of this now that we are demoing.

Who knows what other surprises I’ll find once opening up the walls.Limited on funds and need ways I can purchase home and fund demo (18k)Seller financing is not an option.

@Johan Yang For older homes, you want to consider checking for lead-based paint, asbestos, tube wiring, lead pipes, etc.

A tear down building on the east side is at least $100 to $150k, cost of demo and site prep maybe $20k.
