BuyIntoBmore Opportunities
With the goal of leading transformative change, DHCD issued a comprehensive Community Development Framework. The Framework brings into focus DHCD's overall plan and articulates key strategic approaches for launching a new era of neighborhood investment. To support this new era of neighborhood investment, the BuyIntoBmore initiative was created. BuyIntoBmore is a new way for constituents and developers to invest in Baltimore City by creating a single access point to:
- Apply to purchase City-owned property through the open bid program
- Submit Request for Proposals and Requests for Qualifications (coming soon)
- Submit Expressions of Interest (coming soon)
- Apply to the City’s Vendor Lien program (coming soon)
- Acquire Tax Certificates for tax-delinquent properties (coming soon)
- Apply to adopt vacant lots through the Adopt A Lot program
- Apply for water access for community-managed open spaces
Visit the new BuyIntoBmore site to view aggregate property information from a number of City agencies to provide a comprehensive, user-friendly, mapping tool for constituents to apply to the various programs that allow them to invest in the City. Another exciting new feature is the ability to accept application fees online eliminating the need for physical check and/or coming to City offices to pay processing fees.
Whether you're a large-scale developer, a local community development corporation, a faith-based developer, or an individual homesteader, we encourage you to BuyIntoBmore using one of the programs shown below!

COMING SOON!! The Bundle Program will offer interested developers the opportunity to invest in Baltimore City by purchasing and redeveloping small bundles of city-owned properties. These bundles will be sold in groupings of properties with a goal of achieving more efficient outcomes for our neighborhoods.
DHCD uses the Request for Proposal ("RFP") or Request for Qualifications ("RFQ") Programs to seek developers or development teams for large-scale projects that require extensive experience in urban revitalization initiatives, a proven track record of community partnerships, and financial and organizational capacity to successfully implement and complete complex redevelopment projects within a timely period.
EXPRESSION OF INTEREST PROGRAM
DHCD uses the Expression of Interest (“EOI”) Program to field market interest in specific redevelopment opportunities of city-owned properties. The EOI helps DHCD plan for upcoming RFP cycles by identifying which opportunities have the strongest market interest. It is intended that the EOI will serve as a basis for establishing a list of interested and qualified firms to be invited to respond to future Requests for Proposals (“RFP”).
