Your First Home in Baltimore, Without the Overwhelm
You do not need to have it all figured out. You just need someone honest in your corner who will explain the parts nobody told you about.
Buying your first home is simpler than the internet makes it look
"How much do I really need to put down?"
This is the question that keeps most first-time buyers on the sidelines, and the answer is usually less than they think. The 20 percent rule is a myth for most buyers.
Maryland has first-time buyer programs and down payment assistance designed specifically to close that gap, and there are loan types built for buyers putting down a small fraction of the price.
The right number depends on your situation, not a generic chart. That's a fifteen-minute conversation, and it's free.
What your money actually buys around here
The average first home my buyers land is right around $350,000, and in Baltimore County that opens up real options.
Think Towson, Parkville, Perry Hall, Owings Mills, and the surrounding areas, with townhomes, condos, and starter single-family homes all in the mix.
