Property Manager and area observations for Dayton suburb

Good Morning, 

We are looking at some property in the Trotwood suburb of Dayton.  Now we are located in Columbus and have some familiarity with Dayton.  Mostly the UD area and airport.  I have done a search on Trotwood and would like someone who knows the area better.  Parts look ok, and parts do not.  

If anyone has a good property manager that works that area I would be interested in picking their brain and possibly hiring them if the project proceeds.  Any info on cap rates and vacancy rates would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Sean

@Sean Dawson, your view on T-wood is pretty good, but just be very careful. It can be very hit or miss and you want to make sure you're not just chasing unpaid rents. Like @Darrin Carey offered, feel free to reach out with any questions. My partner and I own a handful of houses in South Park that we've been pretty pleased with and it's hard to deny the numbers in Dayton, if you know the area and make sure you buy right.

@Steven Leigh, I'd be curious to hear about the duplex you've got. My business partner lives in Columbus and has been pushing us to shift there, so always interested to hear about potentials.
