My AA is 70% equities and 30% Cash (CD's and Stable Value) with no bonds. These funds are all tax deferred. I feel a need to build an after tax portfolio and gain some bond exposure. I have decided that a muni bond fund would be a suitable way to meet both these needs. I am considering several funds including these.

I am favoring the T Rowe Price Fund but also considering a closed end fund......Blackrock Maryland Muni Trust (BZM<-had a little trouble with this symbol) which is trading at a discount currently. I know that leverage is a significant factor in a closed end fund but do not understand how that might apply to this particular.
Your feedback is appreciated (esp wrt the leverage of the Blackrock fund)
