Hi all - my folks are in their  middle 60's and have lived in KC metro (Blue Springs, MO) for around 8 or so years - they are wanting to relocate back to where myself & sister live to be with family/spend time with the grand kids.Here's a link to their present listing   http://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sale/1308-NW-Deer-...I think their present realtor sucks and am trying to motivate them to fire her - I'm fairly certain she has the square footage listed wrong - there is about another 1000 finished square footage in the basement she has left off and simply put the listing on the MLS doing nothing else - her ad copy sucks, no video, no facebook etc.This is a VERY well built house and I'm not saying that since they are related - if I had any desire to live here I'd move in a heartbeat - maple cabinets, hard surface counters, great location - easy to get to I70 and get around, close to shopping etc - nice neighborhood etc - one of the lower priced houses in the neighborhood etc etc.I dont want them to get screwed out of money and the current realtor is heading down that path.Anyways if there are any good Kansas City area Missouri side or Blue Springs based agents please contact me.  

maybe a few hundred bucks, thus do not expect any marketing cash outlay or grand efforts from the realtor. 

I lived on Park Avenue in a 4 story walkup that was a slum when I was a kid but in its day in the late 1800's was a swank place - it had an elevator, a grand lobby, a massive grand staircase, all stone building, etc.

Coil Laundry - $2,500 Area is an A or B, suburb location within 20 minutes of Grand Rapids, MI. 

. $2200/month for $190k still isn't a grand slam, but its good enough to be worth considering.And since the house is already bought, there are only 2 relatively simple options. $1400/month from renting, or $140k profit from selling.

Personally, I feel a couple grand in a brokerage account a couple grand an a IRA, a couple of grand in a savings account.

Account Closed  the other issue here is Portlandia has all this high density no parking zoning along public transportation routes.. now a lot of it has been built since the crash.. but little will be built now and there ya go grand design to cram everyone into living with no cars is not going to work since developers are not going to build out these areas. its funny Porltandia lead the nation in getting things going when they gave the 10 year tax breaks in the Pearl and other areas of the city to stimulate growth and it did big time.now they are going backwardsMaybe Carls  container homes will be the answer  :)  container villages.

I saw the property on the market initially on the MLS from my realtor on 07-14-16 and noticed a great opportunity, so I ran the numbers on the BP calculator and noticed that at the right price this could be a GRAND SLAM!

We did not win anything, until the end of the day when everyone else was at the back of the room buying his program and he ran to the back to raffle off the grand prize, an older version of the current course he was offering for $995.As he called the number my eyes blurred a bit as I looked down at my ticket.

Got hosed for a grand.
