Cash Flow & Appreciation in Kansas City?

[George Tiglianidis]

Hello BP people!

I currently live in a suburb of Boston where I’m looking to invest in a market outside of my market.

I have a few friends that grew up in Missouri and told me to look at Kansas City and it’s suburbs specifically Belton and Raymore, Mo.

While home prices are more friendly to my budget in this area my questions are:

Are homes in this area appreciating and will it cash flow with 20-30% down? Are these good areas where there is growth? Are jobs being created? Are these good rental markets? Are there any other areas I should look at in MO?

Thanks for your time.
