OOS First Time Investor in KCMO looking for Contacts

[Max Grust]

I'm a rookie out of state investor planning to make my first investment this year in KCMO.  I'm interested in the buy (preferable off-market), hold, and sell strategy with a cash flowing property that I will need to be rehabbed $5K-$10K per door. Preferably the property will be a Class C property in a Class B neighborhood with a solid school district. Looking at neighborhoods such as Raytown, Riverside, Parkville, and Grandview.  I will be partnering with 2-3 other people so our budget is ~$400K and we are looking at anything from a duplex to a fourplex. I currently live in LA and work in real estate finance. 

I welcome all contacts and/or advice from fellow investors or people who live in KCMO! Thanks!
