A Family Business From a Military Family
Memorable Home Buyers is family owned. My dad served in Vietnam, and my brothers and uncles served too. They are part of this business now, and we were raised the same way: tell people the truth and do what you said you would.
Malachi Cooper, founder
Two Halethorpes Share One ZIP Code
Halethorpe is a small community and also the post office name for all of 21227. So the name covers two very different kinds of housing.
Halethorpe itself
The streets around the MARC station, like Halethorpe Avenue, Benson Avenue, Maple Avenue and Monumental Road. The Census tract here has about 1,790 homes, and 82 percent are detached. Nearly four in five are owner-occupied, and the median value is about $316,200. The Census Bureau counts this area as part of Arbutus.
The 21227 blocks on the city line
Lansdowne and Baltimore Highlands sit right against the Baltimore City line and get Halethorpe mail too. Together they hold about 6,600 homes, close to half of them townhomes. Median values run about $214,000 in Lansdowne and $267,200 in Baltimore Highlands, and more than four in ten homes in each are rented.
A Railroad Town Before It Was a Suburb
Halethorpe grew up beside the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. In 1927 the B&O held its hundredth anniversary celebration, the Fair of the Iron Horse, on grounds at Halethorpe. Trains still define the place. The MARC Penn Line stops at Halethorpe station on Southwestern Boulevard, which was rebuilt and reopened in 2013.
Most of the housing came later. More than two thirds of the homes in the Halethorpe tract were built in 1950 or later, mixed with a few hundred from before 1940. In Lansdowne and Baltimore Highlands, the median home dates to 1959. That means most houses across 21227 are now sixty to seventy years old, with the repair needs that come with that age.

It takes about two minutes and there is nothing to sign.
Who Sells a House in 21227
In Lansdowne, close to four in ten owner households are headed by someone 65 or older, and a quarter of owners moved in before 1990. Long-held homes like these are the ones most likely to need a full round of updates when they finally sell.
Along the city line, more than four in ten homes are rentals. Landlords who are finished with repairs and turnover can sell to us with the tenant still in place.
Around the station, owners usually sell for the familiar reasons: a bigger family, a smaller one, a job somewhere else. If yours needs work you do not want to do first, that is when we fit. And if a foreclosure has been filed in the Circuit Court in Towson, read the Maryland foreclosure guide before deciding. Selling is only one of your options.

Who You Would Be Working With in Halethorpe
Malachi Cooper
Founder, Memorable Home Buyers
I live in Parkville, and my family works in this business with me. When you call, you reach us directly, and I am the one who walks the house and gives you the number. Your information does not get sold to a list of investors who all start calling you.
"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."

The Same Math Lands Differently Across 21227
On a $215,000 Lansdowne townhome, a six percent commission is about $12,900. On a $315,000 detached house near the station it is about $18,900. In both cases the bigger swing is usually repairs, meaning what the inspection turns up and who ends up paying for it.
A house in good shape near the station will usually do better listed. A townhome that needs a roof and new floors, or has a tenant in it, is where a cash offer earns a closer look.
Our Promise to You
What You Can Hold Us To When You Sell
We are a family business in Parkville, and we buy houses in the same counties where we live and shop. If we treat a seller badly, we will hear about it from people we know. 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 shows 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 or an attorney, 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 cannot make it, we say so then, before you have committed to anything.
The truth, even if we lose the deal
If your house would sell for more with an agent, we will tell you. Some people do not need a cash buyer, and we would rather you hear that from us.
