More great stuff from the Sun’s real estate wonk, Jamie Smith Hopkins.
Baltimore-area rental and condo market in early ‘10
New condos have taken it on the chin in this housing market, but first-quarter sales in the Baltimore metro area were the highest in three years, according to real estate information firm Delta Associates. (There were 119 “net” deals, which accounts for contracts that fell through.)
About 1,700 new condos are ready for occupancy or under construction, so Delta doesn’t expect “price traction” until next year …

If you’re an artist interested in moving to Baltimore – or just someone who enjoys art in Baltimore – there’s a great new project the horizon that’s sure to attract your attention.
On March 9, Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Shaun Donovan and National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Chairman Rocco Landesman teamed up for a site visit to the new City Arts, an affordable residential development designed with artists in mind. Located in the Arts and Entertainment District of Baltimore Station, City Arts is scheduled to open in January …

If you’re detailed-oriented, I have some awesome links that you’re going to appreciate. And while I don’t tend to get too link happy, I think that these provide some great stats worth looking at.
A few days ago, Jamie Smith from the Baltimore Sun compiled a nice collection of detailed information on the Baltimore real estate market. After all, what use is broad information on the Baltimore market if you want neighborhood specifics, or even a ZIP code-by-ZIP code analysis?
My favorite link she provided is of colorful maps which show the …

While most people think that the best way to affect change is to move into government, Deputy Mayor Andrew B. Frank appeared to indicate an opposite opinion yesterday: he is leaving his governmental post for a private position with a university.
Baltimore Deputy Mayor for Economic and Neighborhood Development Andrew B. Frank announced his resignation yesterday, along with his intention to leave City Hall mid-May for a advisement job with John Hopkins President Ronald J. Daniels. His new job includes economic development advising, and working on neighborhood revitalization with the East …

“Harbor East” is the buzzword around Baltimore when it comes to the hip, the new, and ‘the latest’ for a great night out. However, what you may not be aware of are the great living opportunities in this tight little spot in this mixed-use, urban harbor development.
In 1986, H&S Properties Development Corp purchased the tract in 1986.  Assistant development manager Christopher H. Janian says that “First and foremost, Harbor East was intended to be a self-sufficient neighborhood for native Baltimoreans, a multiuse development modeled after New York City-style streetscapes.”

Jay Hancock recently wrote a neat article in the Baltimore Sun that I thought deserved a post.
Google recently announced a project on its blog, which outlines a plan to build “ultra high-speed broadband networks in a small number of trial locations across the United States.” Installing optical figer carrying a gigabit of data per second to the doorsteps of at least 50,000 homes and businesses, Google would move data nearly a hundred times faster than that broadband normally allows. Sounds awesome? It gets better. Google would pay for it all, …

Media sources were buzzing yesterday with the news that the Goldseker Foundation has granted $435,000 to a select group of Baltimore city schools. However, the grants came with some interesting stipulations: the money must be used in partnership with their surrounding neighborhoods. These joint grants serve to improve not only schools, but the community as a whole.
The Goldseker Foundation intends to build healthy neighborhoods from the inside out by improving educational standards and serving the children of the neighborhoods. Better educational standards raises property values, and the grants are expected …

Brand new Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake addressed the city yesterday in her first state of the city address since her election, as reported by The Daily Record last night. Her mainly economic speech focused on the budget woes of Baltimore (the city has accumulated a $120 million budget deficit). Most notably, she stated that the deficit is in fact equal to a 36-cent raise in the property tax – however, she pledged to avoid raising the property tax in Baltimore, telling City Council that “if we work together, we can pledge …

Next time you and your neighbors are ranting about the snow (which we all know will be going on for at least the next month), you’ll have a new number to toss out: $830 million.
Yes, that mountainous amount is what the state Department of Business and Economic Development has roughly estimated the cost of the snowstorms to be for the Maryland economy. Ouch.
You may ask, as I did: How is that possible? Well, as reported by the Baltimore Sun, there are multiple factors to be considered. And while calculating the …

U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Shaun Donovan is outlining some budgetary plans which could potentially stimulate the national economy and neighborhoods in the Baltimore area.  The budget has already been backed by President Obama when it was announced in May 2009. Relevant to the Baltimore area is the recent launch of HUD’s new Office of Sustainable Housing and Communities (OSHC).
(For those who are unaware of this U.S. Department, HUD is the nation’s housing agency responsible for sustaining homeownership, promoting economic and community development, enforcing fair housing law, …
