@Steve Johnson That's quite the resume! I admire your ambition of revitalizing the Kansas City area. Honestly, leaving a lasting legacy is one of the major reasons I got into real estate in the first place. What types of properties are you looking for? Feel free to PM me if there is anything I can do for you. Best of luck!

Hello @Marissa Carroll. Welcome to BP! House hacking is a great way to start. The forums are an awesome place to get your questions answered, either with your own post, or searching through old threads. Also be sure to check out the Podcast. There are a bunch of them with experienced investors who do multifamily. Like experience in a bottle!

@David Ward Great advice about the return to senders. I hadn't heard that before. @Andrew Quinn I admire the tenacity with which you are building your business from nothing. I'm in the research phase of wholesaling as well. Something I'd like to get into, but I don't know a lot about yet. I do have some buyers I'm working with, so if you get something under contract, hit me up. Maybe we can bring together two sides of the equation. 

@Kim Tucker I've been working with a few out of state investors in the K.C. area. The most frequently asked question is "where is the growth?" Job growth, new residential construction, industry, etc... They also want contractor, lawyer, and title company recommendations, as well as knowledge of common real estate practices. For instance, Missouri is a nondisclosure state. That means that home sale prices are considered to be private and confidential. Not readily available. Very different than some other states.

Hey @Matt Burris, welcome to the forums. I work in Platte City. Love the area. Let me know if I can answer any questions for you.

Hi @Joshua Parker, welcome to BP! I set up my own LLC, but had a lawyer draw up my articles of organization. Let me know if I can help you with anything. I'm pretty good at finding properties for people.

@Joshua Engemann I'm an investor and agent and I'd be glad to help you find what you are looking for. Being in Troy, have you looked much at the St. Joseph market? I'm very familiar with the area and there are deals to be had. 

@Sean Thompson Welcome to BP! I'd be happy to help you find something if you need help. Are you looking for a move-in ready place or something you can put sweat equity into?

@Ognen Borissov. Completely depends on what the needs are in your local market. Is there a lack of restaurants, hair places, professional office space? What makes you think a grocery store is a good idea? Maybe you get these spaces useable or at least presentable, and advertise them for lease, renovate to suite.

Congrats @Cliff Harrison! Lee's Summit is one of the areas I've really been looking at for properties for my investors. Kind of few and far between as far as deals on MLS.
