Wanting to House Hack in Dayton. (Newbie)

[Liban Knight]

Title says it all. I'm brand new and need information on looking for deals in Dayton for a duplex I can live in. I would be renting out the other side. My plan is to after a while, move out and rent both sides after saving up some money not paying rent. I want to get a property manager as I work full time and go to school. I also want to setup a manager so that leaving the property I won't have to find one. If anyone knows anything that might help me I'm VERY interested and would be extremely grateful.

@Liban Knight Welcome aboard, sir! Dayton is getting pretty hot now, so the longer you wait, the harder it will be to find a good deal. We have some duplexes we manage around Centerville, and they lasted about 0.02 seconds before they sold to one of our clients!!

Now, the story might be different if you're looking in other parts of Dayton that hover more towards C-/D class. I really wouldn't recommend going that route, though. A solid B or maybe a C+ class would be the best way to make it happen. Multi-families are in SUPER HIGH demand, so I wish you the best of luck in finding what you're looking for! :)
