buyers: FHA 203K Renovation Loans
- 08/01/13 04:34 AM
Are you a home buyer looking to minimize your out of pocket expenses? Is your target purchase price under $550,000? Did you find a great property in your price range that has an outdated kitchen and bathroom? Frequently home buyers and agents alike refer to these properties as "grandma's house". What this means is that the property has not been on the market in decades and the decor is completely out of sync.
I'm a big fan of grandma's houses for two reasons; typically there is a pride of ownership that stems from a bygone … (1 comments)

Baltimore's Towson Green was a Winner with my Client
My buyer-client had outgrown the one bedroom condo and was in search of a hassle free home. A private garage where she could start and end the day workday. A walkable neighborhood where she could stroll to dinner when she was too tired to make elaborate plans. A spacious no-maintenance home where there was room to grow. She found that and more at Bozzuto's Towson Green.

Rachel's Guide to Hampden Real Estate
I’ve walked the streets of Baltimore’s Hampden neighborhood since I was a teenager. Back then my afternoons were spent in search of counter culture and vintage clothing. It was the early 1990’s and Hampden was just entering its urban renaissance. Twenty years later Hampden is a ubiquitous Hipster destination.
Hampden is one of Baltimore's most authentic neighborhoods apart from the whole "Hon" issue. What Hon issue? Hampden is the only neighborhood in Baltimore that has its own bonafide mascot. A patron saint of sorts. They even have fesitvals in her honor. These woman grace the … (5 comments)

buyers: Invest in Baltimore's Medfield Neighborhood
- 01/30/13 11:32 PM
Invest in Baltimore’s Medfield Neighborhood. While searching for homes in Baltimore City my clients tend to focus on a select group of neighborhoods. In the northwest part of the city this means Hampden and Mt. Washington. Sandwiched between these two neighborhoods is the sometimes-overlooked neighborhood of Medfield in the 21211 zip code.
Development of the Medfield neighborhood primarily occurred in the 1920's, both single family homes with large yards and classic Baltimore rowhouses. As a child I referred to the single family homes in Medfield as "Hampden Mansions" compared to the surrounding rowhouses they looked enormous … (0 comments)

Freshly minted Baltimoreans. It’s so nice when my job allows me the pleasure of introducing people to the City of Baltimore.

This thank you note came with a beautiful basket of gourmet goodies. The personalized ribbon is my favorite part. Wondering what a Baltimoron is? Here's the definition according to the urban dictionary:
