Moving to Dayton: Agent and Neighborhood Recommendations
Howdy!
I'm moving to Dayton this month and am hoping to purchase my first home (>3b/>2b) or multi-family (2-4), with the hope of doing some renovating and then house-hacking! That said, I wanted to ask a few quick questions:
1. Are there any agents/realtors that you'd recommend who live in or are at least very familiar with the area? Still learning the market, but I'm open to anything from the $10k flips to the $250K cash-flowing multis.
2. What are, in your opinion, the most promising neighborhoods for a long-term investment? (I've lived in some of the rougher neighborhoods in Chicago and am OK with D/C-class neighborhoods, but don't want it to negatively inhibit finding high-quality tenants.)
3. Any other tips or recommendations you think are worth sharing?
Lastly, if anyone wants a rock climbing buddy or a triathlon pal, let me know! I'm looking forward to diving into the smaller-city community after having spent the past 7 years in Chicago and Mexico City. Very excited about the proximity of state parks, skiing/snowboarding, bike trails, rock climbing, horse farms, etc.
