One House At A Time, Inc. (Baltimore)

One House At A Time, Inc. (One House) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to transform vacant properties using receivership and other resources to improve Baltimore neighborhoods. We envision a better quality of life in Baltimore by removing blight, creating safer and more stable neighborhoods, and increasing revenues to support Baltimore City services.

We accomplish our mission primarily as a court-appointed Vacant Building Receiver for Baltimore City. In this role, we act as an independent agent of the District Court of Maryland for Baltimore City to transfer vacant, nuisance properties to qualified buyers who will perform renovations and obtain a use and occupancy permit. As a court-appointed receiver, One House qualifies bidders, assists in selection of auction properties, administers auctions, and directs the transfer of title through the court system.
