Hello BP community, I'm currently new to real estate and live in District Heights, MD.

Again, like I mentioned, it depends on the neighborhood, if it was a $80k 2 unit property in Reservoir Hill in good condition that cash flowed for $327/month, I just might do it but I would cut costs such as managing it yourself and cut the grass yourself.If it was a $80k for a 2 unit in Druid Heights (just an example) that cash flowed for $327/month, I would walk away because nothing in Druid Heights is worth $80k.I'm not going to go into details but I just personally think there are plenty of better deals to be had in Baltimore but if you think it's a good deal and the numbers works for you, then so be it.

There's a place on John R in Madison Heights.

I would first look up the zoning and find out the density, all setbacks, height restrictions parking requirements, I would also look into the cost of utility tap fees if you dont have sufficient utilities for your project.  

Maximum height I can go is 75ft so I have stopped at 24ft.

I think most students live in Clifton heights, University heights and Fairview areas...this is what "CUF" stands for.    

A converted attic should be less than that as ceiling heights can be a major problem in these old homes...maybe $1.50-1.75/sqft but that's just a guess.  

Hello,I have a newbie question...So we completely tore off the roof and the second floor and sub floor (exposed 1st floor frame and basement is all that's left)....Existing ceiling height is 8 feet.

So just walk into the planning counter (hopefully with lots of pictures and anything else you have regarding the space, like ceiling height, utilities, structure etc.), tell them you want to convert an existing space into a new residential unit to help address the city's inadequate quantity of housing supply and housing crisis.
