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.

The Most Expensive Market We Buy In, and the One With the Most Distress
We track active foreclosure filings across Baltimore County every day. Owings Mills generates more of them than any other named town on our current list, including Dundalk and Essex.
That surprises people, because 21117 also carries the highest property values of any market we work in, with the middle of the market near $387,000. Most people expect distress to track cheap old housing, and here it does the reverse.
The reason sits in what Owings Mills is made of. Most of the housing is attached, a large share of it was bought as an investment, and the monthly cost of ownership carries an association payment on top of the mortgage. That combination behaves very differently from a postwar neighborhood full of paid off houses.
What 21117 Is Actually Built Of
There are roughly 26,690 homes in 21117 and the typical one was finished in 1993. About 7,700 went up during the nineties alone and another 4,900 in the two thousands. Compared to the rest of Baltimore County, this housing is young.
Only about 8,200 of those homes are detached houses. Roughly 6,500 are townhomes, and about 11,400 sit in multi unit buildings, mostly condominium and apartment stock built in the same two decades. Close to 45 percent of occupied homes here are rented.
That mix produces a different kind of stuck seller than an old rowhome neighborhood does. A failing roof is rarely what holds these sales up. What holds them up is a unit competing against forty near identical units in the same community, or an association balance that quietly grew while the owner waited.

Why Owings Mills Owners Call Us
The association balance that kept growing
Monthly fees stop being paid during a hard stretch, late charges and legal costs get added, and a year later the number is large enough that the owner avoids opening the mail. In Maryland an association can record a lien for unpaid assessments and take it to court. That balance normally comes out of the proceeds at settlement, so a sale resolves it. Waiting is what makes it worse.
The investment townhome from 2004
Bought to rent out, held through a refinance or two, and now producing less than it costs. With 45 percent of this ZIP code rented, owners in exactly this spot are a large share of who reaches us. A tenant in place does not stop the sale.
The condo nobody will lend on
When an association has low reserves, pending litigation, or too many rented units, lenders can decline to finance anything in the building. Retail buyers disappear and the unit sits. We are not borrowing, so the association questionnaire that kills those deals does not affect ours.
The inherited unit two states away
An owner passes and the heirs live somewhere else. Fees keep running monthly whether anyone is in the unit or not. If the property is still in the deceased owner's name, an estate usually has to be opened through the Baltimore County Register of Wills in Towson before it can be sold, and we will wait while that happens.
A sale date already scheduled
Baltimore County foreclosures move through the Circuit Court in Towson. Selling ahead of the date is one route. If you would rather keep the property, begin with your servicer and a free HUD-approved housing counselor, and read the Maryland foreclosure guide.

Where the Money Actually Goes
Our number comes in under a retail list price. Anyone who tells you different is planning to renegotiate once you are committed.
Owings Mills is the one market where the commission alone is worth doing arithmetic on. Six percent of a $387,000 sale is roughly $23,200. Then add whatever the property needs to satisfy a lender, plus the association fees that keep running every month it sits on the market, plus the mortgage, taxes, and insurance over that same stretch.
For an updated detached house in a desirable section, a listing will often still win, and we will say so on the call. Cash usually comes out ahead on the condo and townhome units, and on anything carrying an association problem or a tenant.
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.
