Live Baltimore's "Buying Into Baltimore" program offers a $3,000 grant toward settlement costs for buying a home in Baltimore City. There are two homebuying fairs, one for the West side in May and another for the East side in September, and both offer tours of homes available for purchase. The event is produced by the Live Baltimore Home Center and the $3,000 grant is provided by the City of Baltimore. The fairs provide homebuying education opportunities and introduce participants to the variety of Baltimore's neighborhoods and housing styles.
The tours are normally held on Saturdays, and for some buyers that is not a day they can participate. Today, CHAI (Comprehensive Housing Assistance Inc.,) of Baltimore is conducting its annual open house tour of the CHAI neighborhood for prospective homebuyers. This is the only opportunity in 2008 to be eligible by attending a non-Saturday event.
One of the homes on the tour is at 3806 Clarks Lane in Upper Park Heights; it's one of my listings that will be open this evening at 6:15. Please do stop by!

Peg: good luck with your listing. I would be curious as to how the incentive program is working.
Has it been in place for a while? What are your experiences with it?
Regards
Henri
Looks like a great place. Good luck in the Open House. I am supprised on a Monday night.
Henri, this is a Baltimore City program with limited grant money.
Susan, Monday is and unusual time for an Open House!
A huge success...15 families come through. Especially surprising since it was a rainy Monday night.
That really sounds like a great idea! I wish they had something like that here. I think one of our local banks was offering $5000 toward closing costs or downpayment to finance a home. That's about as good as it gets. Soon to expire.
