Multifamily homes interest me, as well as fix and flip, buying and holding single family homes, and possibly wholesaling.Thanks for taking the time to read, I look forward to connecting with some great people!

While I do not personally have a contact in KC, I'd recommend using BiggerPockets' Find an Agent tool.Its a FREE service for BP members like yourself who are looking to expand your network and find local experts.Here, you'll be connected with an investor-friendly with knowledge/experience in your desired location(s). 

Connect with a few. 

I'd love to connect and discuss it further, just sent you a connect request.

it's crazy to tie up a million cash to build a duplex. you can leverage that and build so much more units. ohio is one of the cheapest markets in the country to build and I'd pass on this deal if it's a million which I'm assuming it is of cash, with that amount of money you could be the majority partner in a 50+ unit deal with non recourse debt on a HUD 221d4 loan and have more than 50% equity. super low risk, urban core, non suburban deal in Columbus Ohio.

I am not quite sure how to handle going straight to Experian and getting results but here is the link https://www.experian.com/connect/tenant-screening

I recommend connecting with an investor-friendly lender that can give you an idea of what you will be able to afford based on your DTI, credit score, and current income & assets.

Maybe we could connect sometime!
