As we’re beginning to get a grasp on the scale of the challenges ahead we wanted to highlight a few areas of note and concern that is already influencing the local and national real estate market.

Since there are technically 2 cities called Kansas City and they are located in different states (with different laws and building codes), it's very important to distinguish between the two, local referred to as KCMO and KCK.So, a long way to ask, are you interested in real estate in KCMO or KCK to start?

However I have used some of apifys scrapers (for non real estate uses) and was highly satisfied with the value for the price: https://apify.com/tri_angle/redfin-search It looks like it’s for listed properties only?

I frequently hear that someone purchased a new property because their real estate agent told them they could get X amount for rent, when in fact, the market comps don't support that amount.

We are a customer service company that happens to work in the real estate industry.  

I've read many of the BiggerPockets books like - House Hacking- Flipping- Estimating Rehabs- Multifamily Millionaire Book I and II- How to Invest in Real Estate with Low or No Money Down- Investing from a Distanceand even some outside of themand have been wanting to do something in Real Estate for awhile.
