The trades are always looking for workers and have strong pay with solid growth opportunities.

Hi all,In Baltimore, MD I have a strong lead and the seller has agreed to sell however the property is in his name along with an LLC. 

I am going strong still, saving for the next downpayment as we speak. 

There's strong rental demand as well as growth projections. $235K to $275K will go a long way there, particularly in the Cape. 

If you do decide to sell, then strongly consider working with an real estate broker who has experience and a track record with multi-units to avoid numerous pitfalls.   

We both have strong local ties and care about the town and genuinely want to do what's best for the community, and self storage appears the only thing feasible for development on the property except warehouse space.

We have done a few projects in the area and know that sales prices are strong and DOM are low.

Only you can answer that.You would want to look for KEY INDICATORS of what they are doing today and in the IMMEDIATE past to see current trending patterns.If something happened way in the past ( some call it young and dumb incident ) and it was an isolated incident then risk might be lower.If tenant demand is super strong for the area then maybe you do not have to take on a tenant that leaves you questioning whether to rent to them or not.No legal advice given. 

I can tell you that Rock County, WI is as strong as any market I have seen.

With that being said if you can find a good deal turnkey or a fixer at a good price it seems like a strong market.
