Local housing

What local homes need now

The area’s median home was built in 1982, so a typical house here is well into its second or third round of repairs. Roughly 24% of the houses date from the 1980s and 1990s. Original carpet, builder faucets and aging decks are common on our lists here. Chase is a small eastern Baltimore County community near the Gunpowder and Bird rivers, with waterfront cottages and modest single-family homes.

About 47% of homes are detached single-family houses and 29% are townhomes, which means a steady mix of interior repairs and yard projects. Owner-occupancy runs about 69% and the median value is $300,100. That is a lot of equity to protect with steady maintenance.

Jobs we see most in Chase

  1. 01

    Storm-damaged fencing

    After a storm, we often get calls for fence sections knocked down by wind or limbs. We rebuild the damaged run to match the rest of the fence and square up gates so they latch again. With 47% detached homes in Chase, fence lines are a common part of the list.

  2. 02

    Weathered decks and loose railings

    Loose balusters and soft deck stairs are safety issues, not just cosmetic ones. We check framing and ledger connections, replace rotted pieces, and bring railings back to a solid, even height. Decks around Chase built in the 1980s are hitting the age where boards and railings fail.

  3. 03

    Fixture and light swaps

    Dripping faucets, running toilets and dated light fixtures are quick wins. We replace faucets, toilets and vanity lights, swap outlets and switches like-for-like, and install ceiling fans on existing boxes. Fixture swaps are among the quickest jobs we book in Chase.
