You can enter into a legally binding contract as a minor, and without parental consent. The upshot is, that as a minor you may freely dissolve the contract as long as it's fully dissolved.

What is the Minimum age to rent a house in Maryland?

If a minor enters into a contract, the law will allow the minor to "void" the contract. The law gives the minor the power to choose whether s/he wants to honor the contract or avoid the obligation. Therefore a person of any age old enough to sign the contract could rent a house. That is according to the landlord-tenant agreement laws of Maryland. Hope I helped you.
