I am not familiar with your specific area, but some of the best contractors I have worked with I have found on Thumbtack.com and HomeAdvisor.com. If you don't find any local recommendation here on BP, you might check those site out. 

Happy Investing!

Welcome back to investing and welcome to BP! 

@Paul Gill I work mostly in residential, but if you need someone local to help with anything, feel free to reach out to me. I live near Leawood and manage some rental properties there as well. 

Would love to meet you and discuss our property management services when you are in town. 

Hello, I've been on Bigger Pockets for several years, mostly just browsing and listening to podcasts. I started out with a passion to own my own property management company and have recently met all the licensing requirements with the Missouri real estate commission and started taking on new clients. I'm based in the Kansas City area, live in Shawnee, but work all over the Kansas City metro, both Kansas & Missouri.

Last week I attended my first REIA meeting and set up a vendor booth to give out information on my management services. I'm looking to add more volume to my business . Does anyone have recommendations on how to continue to find new property management clients? I also mailed out about 300 post cards to absentee owners.

Appreciate any recommendations - really wanting to pick up some new clients right now. Thanks!

If there are no local REI, you may also check with a local realtor. The real estate boards often have their own lease agreement templates available to real estate agents.

If the twin home that you are referring to are a duplex / townhouse type of set up, you will likely have to do 2 loans, 2 down payments etc. Unless you can find a commercial lender that will qualify you to purchase them with a portfolio loan, then they will need to be acquired individually. The properties are titled/deeded separately and will need to purchase as such. You may search your area for portfolio lenders and see if that would be a feasible option for you. 

Kansas City is great for cash flowing. Rents are increasing as the city is growing and gaining recognition. You may reach out to @Chris Dawson on here, he might has some cash-flow ready properties in his listing inventory. 

I'm a little late to the party as well, but keep me updated with any events as well. I've been in the real estate industry for a long time and have recently started my own property management company. Would love to learn more about investing as well as meet other investors in the area.
