We handle everything for you
Complete Baltimore rental license support from start to finish
Verify Baltimore City applicability + run license/registration lookup
We confirm your property is in Baltimore City (not Baltimore County) and check DHCD's registry to see if it's already registered/licensed.
Handle annual registration fee calculation + registration submission
We calculate and submit annual registration fees (varies by property type: $30/unit for 1-2 units, $35/unit for multifamily) through the DHCD portal.
Coordinate eligible third-party inspector + checklist readiness
We work with Maryland state-licensed home inspectors registered with Baltimore City to schedule inspections and ensure they complete the DHCD checklist correctly.
Assemble/upload inspection packet correctly
We ensure your inspection is submitted within the critical validity windows (30 days for 1-2 family, 90 days for multifamily) and all documentation is properly formatted.
Renewal tracking
We track annual registration deadlines (Jan-Dec cycle) and license renewal timelines (2-year initial, then 1-3 years based on compliance), ensuring you stay current.
Lead registry coordination
For pre-1978 properties, we help coordinate Maryland Lead Rental Registry registration and annual renewals when applicable.
2026 rule changes awareness
We stay current with Baltimore Ord. 24-403 (Strengthening Renters' Safety Act) effective Jan 1, 2026 and update workflows accordingly.
