Hi everyone, I am a full time investor in Kansas City and my wife is Canadian (from Edmonton).

There are several myths that we have to debunk before someone truly believes they can do it.You need millions of dollars to do a dealThat it’s too complicated to figure outThat permitting takes yearsIn those communities developments cost way less (think a couple hundred thousand along with a loan from a regional bank), permitting is not difficult (much less red tape), and the towns are small enough that both the city staff and the local architects and engineers and contractors all work with you to help you navigate the process since you’re all invested in making your community better.Note: The big boys can play in the primary & secondary markets.

You know a similar thing happened in Kansas City (more specifically Jackson County, MO) regarding property taxes in 2023.

I have two properties with MSHB and plan to keep using them in the future. 

Like my title says, I am a dentist in the Kansas City area and am looking at real estate to be my retirement plan.

Which neighborhood or zip code to look at or avoid?  

I am considering a 12 unit multifamily property in my home market of Harrisburg, PA. 

Andrew, we've been using a tool that we created to analyze all of the on market properties in our area at once, so you can filter the best ones. 

What are the best sources or methods you use to accurately set rental rates in your area?

We just ran the new build comps for our market in Columbus Ohio and saw a pricing premium of more than 40% in the urban core for infill work.
