About Live Baltimore:
Live Baltimore believes residents are our city’s greatest assets.

We are effective in this work through programs designed to persuade prospective residents, empower existing residents, and influence the real estate industry.

Our Core Values are at the heart of everything we do and drive our team’s success:

  1. Love Baltimore. We love Baltimore to our cores.
  2. Stay Positive. We celebrate our wins big and small.
  3. Be Helpful. We model humility and service.
  4. Get Results. We are nothing if not effective.
  5. Collaborate. We accomplish more together.
