Hello all,I am consider selling a rental property in KC, MO.

We've used Mid South Home Rentals (Arlington,Tn) for over 12 years now with good success to manage our doors.When you say Mid South be sure we're talking the same company as there's a Mid South Best that's not the sameIt's OK to use another realtor to search (found several on my own) but always have them check area & expected rent to do numbers before purchasing.   

I'd love to try the mid term rental strategy with the property we find.

Verifying last 2 years of rental history very important!
