Baltimore County housing by the numbers
- 850,796
- Residents
- $349,300
- Median home value
- 1973
- Typical home built
- 66.4%
- Owner-occupied homes
Baltimore County's median construction year is 1973, so an older house may have several repairs waiting at once. With 66.4% of homes owner occupied, both longtime homeowners and rental owners face that upkeep. The median home value of $349,300 doesn't tell you what a house with a wet basement or worn roof will bring, but those problems don't keep us from making an offer.

The kinds of Baltimore County houses we buy
The county has brick rowhouses in Dundalk, detached homes in Parkville and Catonsville, and townhouses around Owings Mills. Each house has its own repair list. An older rowhouse might need roof work and new drain lines. A detached house might still have its original kitchen, drafty windows or a basement that takes on water during heavy rain. You can tell us about the problems without paying someone to fix them first.
We buy houses with dated rooms, unfinished projects and damage that makes a regular listing difficult. That includes a tenant's worn flooring, belongings left in an inherited home, or a heating system that stopped working while the house was empty. We look at the condition when we work out the price. You don't need to empty every closet or repaint the walls before we see it.
The Baltimore County situations we buy in
An older Dundalk rowhouse
A brick exterior can hide a long repair list inside. If your Dundalk rowhouse needs roof work, has aging pipes or still has the kitchen your family used decades ago, preparing it for buyers can feel like another job. We buy it with those repairs left to do.
Water in the basement
If rain leaves water downstairs at your Essex or Middle River house, you may be tired of moving boxes and running fans. Damaged drywall and a damp smell make showings harder. Tell us where the water comes in and what you've tried. We can buy the house with the damage still there.
A rental near Towson
Managing a rental around Towson can mean arranging repairs while you're at work or spending your weekends getting it ready between tenants. If you're ready to sell, we can buy with tenants living there. Share the lease and the condition of the house so we can work through the sale with you.
Behind on the mortgage
In Maryland your lender has to send a notice of intent at least 45 days before it files for foreclosure in court. If you want to sell, call us when that letter arrives. A sale before the auction pays off the lender, and the court can dismiss the case.
An inherited house in Catonsville
Sorting through a family home can take more out of you than the sale itself. You can leave furniture, old tools and the repairs you've been avoiding. We can discuss an offer while the estate paperwork is being handled, then close when the person responsible for the estate can sign.
Moving out of the county
If you're leaving Randallstown or Reisterstown to be closer to family, keeping an empty house here adds another bill and another worry. We can close in 30 days or less. You can also choose a later closing date that gives you time to pack and finish your move.
How selling for cash works in Baltimore County
Call us or fill out the form with your Baltimore County address. We talk through the house's condition and send a cash offer within 24 hours. Once you accept, a title company handles settlement, including checking the title and arranging the mortgage payoff. You choose the closing date. You sell as-is, with no agent commissions and no closing costs.
Foreclosure in Maryland goes through the court. The lender's attorney files papers called an order to docket, and that starts the case. Your lender has to send you a notice of intent at least 45 days before that filing. Once an auction is set, the sale notice gives the date, time and place.
The auction is advertised in a local newspaper once a week for three weeks in a row. The first ad runs at least 15 days before the sale. You must receive notice of the sale at least 10 days before it. If we close first and pay off your lender at settlement, the foreclosure can be dismissed. Send us the notice and we'll work toward closing before that date.
For a team focused on Maryland homes, our sister company Memorable Home Buyers also buys houses throughout Baltimore County.
How it works
Three steps to a cash sale.
Tell us about the house
Fill out the short form or give us a call. Share the address, the condition and what's going on. That's all we need to get started.
Get your cash offer
We review the house and send you a fair cash offer within 24 hours. You'll see how we got to the number, and you're under no obligation to take it.
Close on your date
You pick the closing date. We can close in 30 days or less, or later if you need more time. A title company handles the paperwork and you walk away with cash.
Run the numbers on a Baltimore County sale
Our cash offer will come in under what your house would list for. Anyone who tells you otherwise is setting up a renegotiation after you have already committed.
What counts is what you walk away with. The median home in Baltimore County is worth about $349,300. List a house like that and a six percent commission is $20,958 before you pay for a single repair. Add whatever the buyer's inspection asks you to fix, plus months of mortgage, taxes, insurance and utilities while it sits. Then put our number next to that.
Sometimes listing still comes out ahead, and when it does, you should list. We'd rather tell you that than buy a house you end up wishing you had kept on the market.

What sellers say about working with Mal
"Malachi saved us from losing everything. We closed in 9 days and walked away with cash in hand. He was honest the whole way through — no pressure, no games."
"I was three months behind and didn't know what to do. Memorable Home Buyers explained everything clearly and made a fair offer the same day I called. Highly recommend."
"Malachi was a pleasure to work with. We inherited a home that we could not pay the repairs on. He gave us a fair price, and closed exactly when he said he would. Was a quick, easy and very convenient process."
"I had only 8 days left to stop my foreclosure. Malachi came in and showed me what options I had left, and once we agreed on me selling he purchased the home and was able to prevent that stuff on my record. I appreciate him for helping us."
"Me and my husband had a property we just didn't want to deal with anymore. It had leaks in the roof, needed a new water heater and a bunch of other stuff we didn't have the energy to fix anymore. Mal gave us a fair cash offer and made our downsizing process simple"
Our promise to you
What you can hold us to when you sell
You deal with Mal from the first call to closing day. These are the four things we promise on every house.
The number holds
The offer we agree on is the number on your settlement statement, as long as the house matches what you told us on the phone. If the walkthrough turns up something big that never came up, we show you exactly what changed before anything moves forward.
A contract you can read
Our purchase agreement is written in plain English. Take it home, show it to family, and ask us about any line before you sign.
You pick the date
Tell us the closing date you need on the first call. If we can't make it, we'll say so right then, before you've committed to anything.
The truth, even if we lose the deal
If your house would sell for more with an agent, we'll tell you. Some people don't need a cash buyer, and we'd rather you hear that from us.
