About Us
Brick Hill Properties is a family owned real estate and property management business which has been renovating and managing rental properties on Brick Hill since 2010. Over the years we have renovated eight houses into beautiful, modern homes that maintain and celebrate the 150 year old aesthetic that has made Brick Hill the hidden gem it is in Baltimore.
While the business was started in 2010, our family ties to these houses goes back to 1925. William Cooper Depfer bought his house, pictured here on the left, in 1925 from a nearby mill for $5. His son, Ray Depfer, and close family friends, Julia and Lex Davis (mother and son) started this family business together in 2010 to renovate the long neglected homes. William Cooper's original house has never been sold, recently had a full renovation, and is currently rented.
Recently, BHP finished renovating the Depfer's machine shop which operated briefly in the 1960's. For the first time in 50 years, the building is fully operational and home to a local non-profit A Workshop of Our Own (WOO). WOO is a carpentry studio committed to teaching classes by and for women and gender non-conforming crafts people.
Under the management of Baltimore native Lex Davis, we remain passionate about serving Brick Hill and Baltimore. We continue to strive for smart, equitable growth that is bold, authentic, and vibrant. Brick Hill Properties wants to create positive spaces where anyone can gather and no one wants to leave.
