@Cathy Downey I'm very new as well, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Thanks for the food for thought.

We've run some numbers but I'm taking them with a grain of salt so far because they're based on mostly anecdotal data points, and I'd like to learn if I could be more precise in these calculations.Interested in hearing in anyone's experience who can help compare the pros and cons to "high" vs.

Hi Adrienne, I am in the Cleveland market so I can not speak for Dayton, however in Cleveland the housing stock is older and you need to take the inspection report with a grain of salt.

If I asked you what kind of sauce should I use for my food, you’d probably ask what kind of food is it?

In one of the upstairs apartments we found an unused top level (finished attic) room that clearly had mice living there - which opens into the unit and the tenant had mouse traps at the door that led there.We didn't see evidence of mice in any of the other units, however in one of the units the tenant was out when we came, was very much a mess with old food, garbage, old cans, and garbage piled up in every room.

I take this with a grain of salt since it’s being reported through a minimum of 2 people.Appreciate the alternative perspective.

Yes, it was hosted by a realty company and I had my grain of salt handy throughout.

Food for thought.

Milwaukee has culture, entertainment, great food, low traffic, two major sports teams (Bucks are best in the league currently),  freshwater, emerging tech startup community, a handful of fortune 500 companies, the DNC in 2020 AND you can buy a house for $100k.
