Why is Dayton going up in prices and rents so fast?

[Gordon Starr]

Hi BP, I'm in Dayton Ohio (OH) watching houses being sold off the MLS in a big hurry for prices that surprise me. Its a new phenom in mostly C class Dayton proper.. You did not get these kinds of sale prices before. Rents are leaping higher too. This is true at least in my part of town which is shiloh north riverdale riverside drive and north main corridors. And old north dayton, too. Anyhow I am trying to understand why?.. Who are all these buyers? Is it happening all over or just more in my area of town? Thoughts?
