What @Anna Sagatelova said about Cleveland properties is also true in Akron. 90% of the housing stock in the city of Akron was built before 1970 and there are quite a number of really fine A++ older homes especially in west Akron.

I would suggest to sell the condo and reinvest into a single family home. 

In today’s market most homes will be worth more than their outstanding loan balance unless they are VERY recent purchases with little to no money down.

I think the A frame idea works great for this setting, but some have said the A frame style steeper peaked roof works better. https://www.instagram.com/redtail_cabins_adu/

Increase income, decrease DTI, and buy a home (i.e., get a higher paying job, work two jobs, go to trade school, get a higher paying degree, live in affordable area, etc...these are things that most of us did).

I've seen a lot of people try this, and they rarely use the home. 

From there it is really just a matter of determining comps, cost to rehab a property, and your timeline.I have helped several investors flip their first home in Austin and learn how to do it effectively.

It's a 4 bedroom SFH for $325k, built in 1990 and it's got many upgrades including a 2024 roof.

Need a home, it needed work, price and location where pretty great.
