Pigtown, Baltimore, MarylandPigtown is an affordable historic community in central southwest Baltimore City bordered by  Martin Luther King jr Boulevard to East Monroe Street and West Pratt Street to the north close to many amenities including Camden Yard, Raven Stadium, the Inner Harbor, and the Camden Yard Metro station.The neighborhood acquired its name during the second half of the 19th century when the area was the site of butcher shops and meat packing plants to process pigs transported from the Midwest on the B & O Railroad, they were herded across Ostend and Cross Streets to be slaughtered and processed.  I've been told a lot of the homes along that route had their kitchens in the basement and wives would reach out the basement windows and grab a pig as they ran through the stre...

Just Listed - 1209 Scott St, Baltimore, MD 21230This is an amazing opportunity on what I consider to be the best block in Pigtown.  Pigtown is a designated historic community and this home does qualify for a lower-interest Healthy Neighborhoods loan to assist a new homeowner with making this home their own. In addition to the Healthy Neighborhoods program, there are many grants and downpayment assistance programs available to help you get into this home for just $1000 of your own money.This home has had a lot of improvements that include a new roof, water heater, boiler, electric panel, and windows, what remains will make this great 3-story, 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom townhome truly your own.  And, in addition, there is off-street parking (a garage) in the back. Located within walking distan...

B & O Museum to Open 12 New Cars to the PublicWho doesn't love trains, especially antique, collectible ones!! When my youngest son was little he loved trains, we watched Thomas the Tank Engine videos until I could almost recite each one verbatim. We had a family membership to the B & O Railroad Museum and we visited there frequently.  The day the roof collapsed on the Round House I had to drive him down there to see, he was frantic about the trains and wouldn't sleep until he saw it for himself.  Now, he's 25 years old, he still likes trains but is not as obsessed with them as he was then, but, he sure got excited about this new exhibit. On a designated date each month the B & O Museum will unveil a new train to be toured for a total of 12 cars, one a month.  We have already missed Janu...

Just Sold - 1229 W Cross St, Baltimore, MD 21230I have one ecstatic buyer.  This is one of those transactions for the record.  My buyer has been under contract since August 2022. This property was a FSBO and it was tenant occupied.  The seller wanted to sell, the buyer wanted to buy - those were the two most important factors in this sale.  The buyer was self-employed and used a special Bank Statement Loan to purchase the home.  The terms of the contract stated that the property needed to convey vacant which was the challenge.  In Baltimore City, if the property is not listed with an agent the seller must give the tenant 60 days within which to decide if they want to buy it or not.  The tenant did not and could not, then the tenant got hurt at work and the seller and buyer decided to al...

Pigtown Fixer Upper WantedI have an investor client that is seeking vacant and abandoned properties and houses in need of repair in Pigtown or as it is now known, Washington Village.  Do you own a property in need of repair? Did you inherit a property from a family member that you want to sell?  I have clients looking for properties like that not just in Pigtown but elsewhere too. Let's talk about those properties you no longer want to pay taxes and water and sewer charges on.
