Pros to this area are:- The plaza (nice area) is a 5 minute drive- Downtown is an 8 to 10 minute drive- KU Medical Center is 8 to 10 minute drive- UMKC and Rockhurst University are 3 to 5 minute drive- Furnished Finder shows 59k searches for MTRs in the area, and my property is at the edge of the heavy listing location (see image below with the red circle)Overall, it makes me nervous to furnish this property if it's not even worth it to put it up as a MTR if I don't even get any bookings.
