Kansas City market

[Paul Nagy]

Hello all! I'm looking to purchase a duplex in the Kansas City area and am wondering what part of KC is most attractive for both cash flow and appreciation? I've been looking at the suburbs (independence, lees summit) and the city itself (plaza, westport, KU Med.)

For example, I've got my eye on quite a few duplexes in Independence which I can get at $95k and the monthly rent brings in $1400 yet long-term appreciation may be weak.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thx,
Paul~
