Having lived there a year it is a foreign country and many things are different and culture etc plus you have the native peoples that own huge amounts of real estate and They dont pay income tax and they get food and gas for way cheaper etc etc..

And when I speak with people (or write on my blog) I'm always VERY transparent about the unique challenges of the market there.

Some people have gotten lucky in the past, and the market has carried them through everything.

Most people didn't want to touch it.

There are also deals that can be find on jud.ct.gov for foreclosure auctions but those rarely work out because the people usually owe more than the property is worth or they get cancelled and postponed frequently. 

Overland Park, KS vs Kansas City, MO) Very landlord friendly, worst case eviction is usually 8 weeks + $500 + lost rent (cannot comment on individual cases and this is not legal advice) Large diverse metro area - variety of jobs, companies, people can have a career in KC.

I don’t know how 2 people got 3 homestead exemptions but that seems like something the local taxing authority could catch pretty easy.

VRBO does not seem to do the same guest verification or background checks as Airbnb and you have to opt in to Damage Protection (insurance or deposit) which I've read can detract people from booking.

You guys are asking for lawsuits evicting people without proof. 

I have also been talking with some people in the business.
