Kansas City is the “Heart of America” a transportation hub in the center of the country with a small city feel and the big city attractions of art, culture, fine dining, and professional sports teams.

Quote from @Jake Hughes: Whats up BP community.What professional photographers are people using to market their rehabbed properties?

So many, please message me for details Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Most of the easy "lipstick on a pig" transformations are gone - you're often looking at more serious rehabs to make the numbers work.That said, we do have some advantages: strong rental market (lots of students, young professionals), still relatively affordable deals, and good appreciation potential in many neighborhoods.

They do an extremely good job at communicating in a professional and respectful manner, but not so much anything else.

i have 4 STRs that i use professional PM, 2 of the STRs, after expenses including PM, are not outproducing my LTRs.For optimal ROI in this market requires a value add and quick, at least partial, exit.

Sharing your vision with real estate professionals, local investors, or even family and friends might uncover unexpected opportunities.

Most professionals will recommend a separate LLC for every $1 million in assets but I don't think that's necessary.

It could be worth transitioning to a midterm rental if there's demand for that type of housing in your area, like traveling professionals or remote workers.

A good agent should welcome due diligence, not discourage it.Ask for references, any legitimate professional should be happy to provide them.
