I've been researching markets in the midwest for some time and KC was one of those cities that just kept rising to the top of the list for potential cities to invest in.

Although I'm extremely biased to New Orleans my advice on choosing a city is travel and visit as many of these places as possible even if it's just weekend trips. 

It may seem that way, however if you can crunch the numbers and know how to get a cap rate, no longer in unicorn city!

Looking at a crime heat map, it seems like this area has an extremely high crime rate compared to most of the city.

Nice area, within 45 minutes commute to a city center.  

Hey everyone,I'm committing to investing in Kansas City and am trying to build a deep understanding of the market.

Sometimes a pro-forma is just a sellers hopes and dreams, proof the projections against reality. land sales usually don't spin off these types of returns unless they are in or around resort areas or major metropolitan cities where new construction is coming, not sure how a mountain would play into that scenario unless it's mountain cabins.    

The location makes it desirable for retirees and people trying to get away from city life while being close enough to still have a "real job."

ST Louie is one of the oldest cities in Mid America, near town center years ago people warned me not to venture there even in the car. 

Now I know a bit about some other areas of the city, but THIS is the area I study.
