Well...the Dayton Dragons baseball team has the most consistent sold out games of any sporting team in North America (startling fact), Warped Wing opened a second location, and a half dozen other breweries are now open in the city...Boston Stoker coffee is totally awesome and has several new locations (this is important because it's a key indicator for the successful revitalization of many cities...beer-food-coffee is key)...there is a river front development that is reminiscent of Columbus (which was awarded best on the country), there is big inner-city revitalization...I saw a developer by the name of Simms pre-sell 24 $500k "Brownstone" townhouses in the center of downtown (unheard of in Dayton)...there are 30 renovation projects going on downtown...and they now have a full time staff on the streets to keep the city clean...the population is on the increase for the first time since 1964....I mean this is pretty superficial, but it's every bit as important as economic indicators...there is a lot more to this...There are still "war zones" in abundance in Dayton and it's the Opiate Overdose capital of the USA...but getting better rapidly...just proceed with caution if you elect to invest there...a local subject matter expert is a must!

Despite being very handy, I work a FT job, I have a family and other commitments, thus my time is extremely limited and I've found that for me, it's more lucrative (mostly in the long run) to do flip-to-rents (using the BRRRR method) on the side (and keeping my full time W2 job). 

@Theodore Arzt Did you complete a full credit, criminal, eviction check on the applicant?

A full review and a limited review. 

Then apply the first funds to the repairs and give notice to quit or pay if they do not pay in full.

I work full time in IT and maybe able to assist in that area.
