Randy Barth has helped flip more than 30 residential properties in the greater Baltimore area over the last few years. After purchasing a 1924 duplex in Baltimore's Forest Park neighborhood for $21,000, he recently completed a massive renovation of the home and sold the property for $125,000. Randy enlisted me to sell the home.

Interestingly, to help boost market exposure of the property, I was able to get the home included in Live Baltimore's "Buying Into Baltimore" program (http://livebaltimore.com/events/details/buying-into-baltimore/#.VHiKv_10z5o). As a result, more than 50 qualified homebuyers were able to tour the home during the program's open-house bus tour on Sept. 27. The buyer found the house during that tour.

Do you have an interest in buying and "flipping" residential investment properties? Are you a first-time homebuyer in need of financial assistance for a Baltimore-area home? Call me, and I'll be glad to help you with your real estate need.

Again, congratulations Randy on your home sale, and thanks for choosing me as your listing agent!
