Finally Going Local With My Money

[Brian Wilson]

Afternoon BP,

I've been banking with the infamous Bank of America, for my entire working life (since age 13). I had always heard complaints about the bank in passing conversations, but paid them no mind as I hadn't noticed any issues with my own interactions with them; that is until today. 

I've decided I want to move to a local bank / credit union in the Kansas City area to move my personal savings and checking accounts to. 

As a two fold approach I'd like to go with a bank that also works well with real estate investors, that way I can begin to build a relationship with said lender.

Which brings me to my question: What local banks / credit unions do you work with for your REI ventures and utilize for your banking solutions in the KC area (personal and business alike)?

There's no right or wrong here, just looking for input. 

Thanks in advance!

Bank of America is pretty infamous, at least in my opinion. Here are the local banks that have lent us the most money and who we've liked using the most (for checking accounts as well):

- Bank 21

- Cornerstone Bank

- Fidelity Bank

- TriCentury Bank

- Great American Bank
