Buying in Dayton: the numbers that matter.
Dayton anchors the Miami Valley as a hub for aerospace, defense, and healthcare, with Wright-Patterson Air Force Base as the largest area employer and a research ecosystem from the University of Dayton to Wright State; walkable historic districts deliver Craftsman and Victorian stock at among the most attainable prices in any major Ohio metro.
Financing follows that Dayton math. A one-unit Dayton purchase conforms to $832,750 in 2026 — the national baseline Montgomery County runs on. That $832,750 ceiling covers most Dayton price points — conventional, FHA, down-payment-assistance all stay on the Dayton table. Dayton’s price tier is entry-level. Per FHFA’s 2026 schedule — we’ll check your exact numbers.
